Our laboratories have recently calculated a set of collision coefficients characterizing the efficiency of energy transfer between helium and/or hydrogen and a large variety of interstellar molecules. We have considered with molecules ranging from light hydrides, observed by the Herschel Space Observatory, to medium size molecules, observed by mm antennas, to heavy complex organic molecules, observed also in the cm range. We present a review of recent theoretical results obtained in our laboratories, for various kinds of commonly observed molecules.
