In order to understand quantitatively the abundances of interstellar molecules, we need a precise knowledge of their excitation/quenching rates. We describe theoretical ways of computing those rates, their experimental measures and the various success and limitations of theoretical methods.
In particular, we shall discuss the cases of fine-structure excitation, of small molecules and of larger ones.
