Description

The production of C1-C3 monocarboxylic acids from carbonaceous meteorites was investigated by the radiolysis of air-free CO2 and alkane solutions, utilizing a Cs-137 gamma-ray source. Samples were first loaded on a vacuum system, irradiated, and then analyzed by the Hewlett Packard model 5890A gas chromatograph. Moreover, the samples were irradiated with and without added ferrous iron
