Abstract

AbstractThe interaction of energetic particles with ice mixtures can induce important chemical effects. Such interactions occur in several environments in space and may produce complex prebiotic molecules whose formation may help to shed some light on the fascinating problem of the origin of life in our Universe. Experimental work performed by several groups to simulate as closely as possible conditions and processes occurring in extraterrestrial scenarios is reported. Special attention is paid to applications of the results of laboratory investigations to interstellar and cometary environments.
