Resumen
The role of primordial CH molecules in the first structures formation epoch is considered. We discuss the plausibility of observing protostructures in the Dark Age epoch of the Universe by studying the rotational structure of the CH molecule. It is stressed that considerable abundances of this molecule could be formed for different Inhomogeneous BBN models, which could lead to observable spectral-spatial fluctuations in the CMBR spectrum. The calculation is carried out for the Lambda-CDM cosmology and for typical first structures physical conditions. The chemical evolution of the structures is followed numerically, and the optical depth for the most important ground rotational transitions of the CH molecule are proposed. It is shown that under reasonable conditions the primordial CH molecule can be observed with mm-telescopes under construction.
