The use of infrared spectra to determine molecular abundances of icy astronomical objects
and to study their chemistry requires laboratory measurements of reference spectra and …

The oxidation mechanism of toluene on the surface of heat-treated CeO 2 nanoparticles was
investigated using diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy (DRIFTS) …

Infrared spectroscopic observations have established the presence of solid methanol (CH 3
OH) in the interstellar medium and in solar system ices, but the abundance of frozen CH 3 …

Context. The increasing sensitivity and resolution of ground-based telescopes have enabled
the detection of gas-phase complex organic molecules (COMs) across a variety of …

Frozen methanol was detected in the outer solar system on the surfaces of the Centaur 5145
Pholus, the Trans-Neptunian Object (55638) 2002 VE 95, and more recently on (486958) …

Volatile organic molecules and a complex organic refractory material were detected on the
Moon and on lunar samples. The Moon's surface is exposed to a continuous flux of solar UV …

Infrared observations of the interstellar medium have unveiled the existence of numerous
solid-phase molecules. The recent detection of uracil within the (162173) Ryugu asteroid …

CeO 2 catalysts have proven to be effective in volatile organic compound (VOC) oxidation
due to their oxygen storage potential and ability to chemisorb gas phase organic …

The first interstellar molecule was detected in 1937 (Swings and Rosenfeld, 1937). This
molecule, the methylidyne radical (CH), was identified through its characteristic absorption …
