Can an alchemist launch his bombs with a sling? What about a catapult? Could a wizard/alchemist use telekinesis to lob a bomb? Can you mount the bombs on arrows? Spears? Ballistas?
Explosive Missile discovery and Siege Bomb discovery.
Can't use telekinsesis, since making the bomb is a standard action.

A quickened telekinesis would probably work.
Can an alchemist infuse ammunition that is then launched by somebody else?

Explosive Missile: As a standard action, the alchemist can infuse a single arrow, crossbow bolt, or one-handed firearm bullet with the power of his bomb, load the ammunition, and shoot the ranged weapon."
Infusing, loading, and firing are all part of the same standard action, so no.
Siege bomb, yes, as long as they fire it before the start of the alchemist's next turn.

A grenadier can do it with alchemical items like smokesticks, alchemist's oil, etc. But not bombs.
Part of Explosive Missile is firing it, so no.
in the Adventurers Armory there is a crossbow for lauching bombs I think, not sure if an Alchemist can use it though.
Launching Crossbow doesn't work for bombs, as it's a full-round action to load it.

Just take Delay bomb if you really want one.
Edit: or rapid reload. Heck fast bombs and crossbow master could be real fun though thats getting into check with the DM area.
