Vacuum ultraviolet photodesorption and photofragmentation of formaldehyde-containing ices

Géraldine Féraud, Mathieu Bertin, Claire Romanzin +7

Non-thermal desorption from icy grains containing H${}_2$CO has been invoked to explain the observed H${}_2$CO gas phase abundances in ProtoPlanetary Disks (PPDs) and Photon Dominated…
