Investigating the Synthesis of Organic Molecules in Cometary Comae via Neutral-Neutral Reactions
Abstract
We present results from our latest models for cometary coma chemistry, which show that some organic molecules detected previously using radio spectroscopy could originate from neutral-neutral reactions in the coma, instead of from ice in the nucleus.
