An Orbitrap-based laser desorption/ablation mass spectrometer designed for spaceflight
Ricardo Arevalo, Laura Selliez, Christelle Briois +8
RATIONALE: The investigation of cryogenic planetary environments as potential harbors for extant life and/or contemporary sites of organic synthesis represents an emerging focal po…
Detection opportunity for aromatic signature in Titan s aerosols in the 4.1 to 5.3 micron range
Christophe Mathé, Thomas Gautier, Melissa G. Trainer +1
The Cassini/Huygens mission provided new insights on the chemistry of the upper atmosphere of Titan. The presence of large molecules and ions (>100 s of amu) detected by Cassini at…
In situ Investigation of Neutrals Involved in the Formation of Titan Tholins
David Dubois, Nathalie Carrasco, Marie Petrucciani +3
The Cassini Mission has greatly improved our understanding of the dynamics and chemical processes occurring in Titan's atmosphere. It has also provided us with more insight into th…
Evolution of Titan s high-altitude aerosols under ultraviolet irradiation
Nathalie Carrasco, Sarah Tigrine, Lisseth Gavilan +2
The Cassini-Huygens space mission revealed that Titan s thick brownish haze is initiated high in the atmosphere at about 1000 km of altitude, before a slow transportation down to t…
Comparison of soluble and insoluble organic matter in analogues of Titan s aerosols
Julien Maillard, Nathalie Carrasco, Isabelle Schmitz-Afonso +2
Titan, the biggest moon of Saturn, has a thick atmosphere which presents similarities with the one thought to be on Earth at its beginning. The study of Titan s photochemical haze…
Laboratory Studies of Methane and Its Relationship to Prebiotic Chemistry
Kensei Kobayashi, Wolf D. Geppert, Nathalie Carrasco +6
In order to examine how the terrestrial life emerged, a number of laboratory experiments have been conducted since the 1950s. Methane has been one of the key molecules in these stu…
