Identification and characterization of a new ensemble of cometary organic molecules
Nature Communications, 2022 A new analysis of Rosetta mass spectra reveals an ensemble of complex organic molecules with striking similarities to other organic reservoirs in the Solar System, including Saturn’s ring rain material, pointing at a likely joint prestellar history.

UV and VUV Ionization of Organic Molecules, Clusters, and Complexes [PDF]
The Journal of Physical Chemistry A, 2009 The generation of organic particle beams is studied in combination with photoionization using uv radiation at 266 nm and vuv light at 157 nm. Single-photon ionization with pulsed vuv light turns out to be sensitive enough to detect various large neutral biomolecular complexes ranging from metal-amino acid complexes to nucleotide clusters and aggregates

Methyl Isocyanate Formation from Oxygen Insertion in Methyl Cyanide Ices
The Astrophysical JournalIn cold molecular clouds, UV photolysis of icy grain mantles generates radicals that lead to new molecule formation. When radical diffusion is limited by low temperatures, oxygen atom addition and insertion reactions, enabled by photolysis of common ice ...
