Abstract: Let be a classifying variety for an exceptional simple simply connected algebraic group . We compute the degree 3 unramified Galois cohomology of with values in over an arbitrary field . Combined with a paper by Merkurjev, this completes the computation of these cohomology groups for semisimple simply connected over all fields. These computations provide another family of examples of simple simply connected groups such that is not stably rational.
