We review the gas-phase chemistry in extraterrestrial space that is driven by reactions with
atomic and molecular ions. Ions are ubiquitous in space and are potentially responsible for …

Titan is the gem of the Saturnian system, an icy world laden with organics and shrouded in
an auburn haze. Due in large part to the discoveries of the Cassini-Huygens mission to the …

Context. We present an investigation of the surface properties of areas on the nucleus of
comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko. Aims. We aim to show that transport of material from …

The discovery of large (> 100 u) molecules in Titan's upper atmosphere has heightened
astrobiological interest in this unique satellite. In particular, complex organic aerosols …

Since OSIRIS started acquiring high-resolution observations of the surface of the nucleus of
comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko, over one hundred meter-sized bright spots have been …

The surfaces of many objects in the Solar System comprise substantial quantities of water
ice sometimes mixed with minerals and/or organic molecules. The sublimation of the ice …

Very little experimental work has been done to explore the properties of photochemical
hazes formed in atmospheres with very different compositions or temperatures than those of …

Here we present the first quantitative study of the gas to solid particle conversion in a Radio
Frequency dusty plasma experiment simulating the complex atmospheric reactivity on Titan …

This work presents the first study of the gaseous products resulting from the partial
dissociation of methane and nitrogen in the PAMPRE experimental setup simulating Titan's …

The photochemical haze produced in the upper atmosphere of Titan plays a key role in
various atmospheric and surface processes on Titan. The surface energy, one important …
