Measurement of Organic Molecules and D-H Ratios in Laboratory Mass-Spectra of Hypervelocity Dust Impacts into Ice
Abstract
Experiments at CU Boulder allow for hypervelocity dust impact into ice. Analysis of the impact eject with TOF instruments indicate that complex organics survive and can be measured directly, as can deuterium-hydrogen ratios.
