Low-temperature formation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in Titan’s atmosphere [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The detection of benzene in Titan’s atmosphere led to the emergence of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) as potential nucleation agents triggering the growth of Titan’s orange-brownish haze layers. However, the fundamental mechanisms leading to the
