- who: Eric Quirico and colleagues from the Universitu00e9 LATMOS University, Caen, France have published the research work: A Radiolytic Origin of Red Organics at the Surface of the Arrokoth Trans-Neptunian Object, in the Journal: (JOURNAL)
SUMMARY
Arrokoth was surveyed by the New Horizons spacecraft on 1st January 2019. Different energetic pArticles can produce organics from ices: Solar or interstellar UV photons, Solar wind (SW) and Solar Energetic Particles (SEPs), and Galactic Cosmic rays.
