High resolution spectroscopy of the impacts and impact sites of comet P/Shoemaker-Levy 9 in Jupiter has been performed at the Pic-du-Midi observatory, France. The transient emission of seven emission lines form five different metals (Na, Fe, Ca, Li, K) and of the H&agr; line have been identified in spectra from the fresh impact sites of fragments L and Q1.
