The state of hydrogen peroxide on Europa
نویسندگان
چکیده
[1] We report infrared reflectance studies in the laboratory that reveal the state of hydrogen peroxide on Europa. Detailed analysis of the 3.5 mm infrared absorption band for hydrogen peroxide grown in a number of water ice environments shows that, for temperatures and concentrations relevant to Europa (80– 130 K), hydrogen peroxide molecules exist in isolated trimers H2O2.2H2O. If the temperature on an icy body containing H2O2 approaches 150 K, as on Ganymede, the trimers aggregate into precipitates of crystalline dihydrate H2O2.2H2O. Citation: Loeffler, M. J., and R. A.

Synthesis of hydrogen peroxide in water ice by ion irradiation
We present infrared absorption studies on the effects of 50–100 keV Ar+ and 100 keV H+ ion irradiation of water ice films at 20–120 K. The results support the view that energetic ions can produce hydrogen peroxide on the surface of icy satellites and rings in the outer Solar System, and on ice mantles on interstellar grains. The ion energies are characteristic of magnetospheric ions at Jupiter,...
متن کاملHydrogen Peroxide Adsorption on Graphene with Stone-Wales Defect
To explore the possibility of using graphene based biosensor, adsorption of hydrogen peroxide on graphene has been investigated using density functional theory. The electronic properties of defect free and defective graphene in the presence of different number of hydrogen peroxide have been studied. The graphene with the most stable configuration defect named as SW defect is considered. The hig...
