Quantitative morphological metric extraction results and numerical simulation results. A. Spatial distribution of DAF across the study area, overlaid on a shaded relief base map derived from DTEEC_033165_2195_032875_2195_A01 (26). Colors

Graphical Abstract — astro-ph.SR Small polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and somewhat larger cyano derivatives were detected in the cold dark cloud TMC-1 recently. Their formation from smaller hydrocarbons is not well

Grid of simulations of atmospheric pressure contribution (bars) and total volume mixing ratio (VMR) for each molecular species as a result of initial volatile abundances. Results are shown for the

Orgueil Carbonaceous Chondrite – Wikipedia The uneven detection of prebiotic organic compounds in meteorites—where amino acids and nucleobases are commonly identified but sugars remain rare and poorly characterized—limits our understanding

A schematic of the key processes included in our abiotic Earth model. Remotely observable quantities (surface temperature, albedo, and atmospheric H2O and CO2) are in bold. Volatile cycling is diagrammed
