In this review I summarize the current state of knowledge about the composition of Titan's
atmosphere and our current understanding of the suggested chemistry that leads to that …

The atmosphere of Titan, the largest moon of Saturn, is rich in organic molecules, and it has
been suggested that the moon may serve as an analog for the pre-biotic Earth due to its …

The infrared absorption cross sections of ethane (C 2 H 6) have been measured in the 3.3
µm region by high resolution Fourier transform spectroscopy. The ethane samples had …

From 2004 to 2017, the Cassini spacecraft orbited Saturn, completing 127 close flybys of its
largest moon, Titan. Cassini's Composite Infrared Spectrometer (CIRS), one of 12 …

High resolution infrared absorption cross sections of isobutane,(CH 3) 3 CH, were measured
in the 1050–1900 cm− 1 spectral range by Fourier transform spectroscopy. Four sample …

Chemical processing in the stratospheres of the gas giants is driven by incident vacuum
ultraviolet (VUV) light. Ethane is an important constituent in the atmospheres of the gas …

In this work, we present for the first time infrared spectra of Titan from the Spitzer Space
Telescope (2004–2009). The data are from both the short wavelength–low resolution (SL; …

Hosting a∼ 1.5 bar N2 atmosphere and reducing atmospheric composition, Titan has the
energy sources needed to drive disequilibrium chemistry and hosts an aerosol layer which …

Hydrocarbons such as methane and ethane are present in many solar system objects,
including comets, moons and planets. The interaction of these hydrocarbons with water ice …

Curiously, n-butane has yet to be detected at Titan, though it is predicted to be present in a
wide range of abundances that span over 2.5 orders of magnitude. We have searched …
