Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) have been invoked in fundamental molecular
mass growth processes in our galaxy. We provide compelling evidence of the formation of …

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 low-temperature reaction between CN and benzene (C 6 H 6) is of significant interest in
the astrochemical community due to the recent detection of benzonitrile, the first aromatic …

Benzene is a simple neutral aromatic compound found in molecular clouds, comets, and
planetary atmospheres. It has been confirmed on Jupiter, Saturn, Titan, and is expected on …

Abstract Thanks to the Cassini–Huygens mission, Titan, the pale orange dot of Pioneer and
Voyager encounters, has been revealed to be a dynamic, hydrologically shaped, organic …

Context. The analysis of the mid-infrared spectra helps understanding the composition of the
gas in the inner, dense and warm terrestrial planet forming region of disks around young …

Context. Terrestrial extrasolar planets around low-mass stars are prime targets when
searching for atmospheric biosignatures with current and near-future telescopes. The …

C4H4 isomers not only serve as a basis to understand the chemical properties of
hydrocarbons but are possible intermediates in combustion and organic reactions in outer …

Context. The largest satellite of Neptune, Triton, is a likely Kuiper Belt object captured by the
planet. It has a tenuous nitrogen atmosphere, similar to that of Pluto, and it may be an ocean …

The threshold photoionization and dissociative ionization of benzonitrile (C6H5CN) were
studied using double imaging photoelectron photoion coincidence (i2PEPICO) spectroscopy …
