Upper limits for PH3 and H2S in Titan's Atmosphere from Cassini CIRS [PDF]
Conor A. Nixon, Nicolas A. Teanby, Patrick G. J. Irwin, Sarah M. HorstWe have searched for the presence of simple P and S-bearing molecules in Titan's atmosphere, by looking for the characteristic signatures of phosphine and hydrogen sulfide in infrared spectra obtained by Cassini CIRS. As a result we have placed the first upper limits on the stratospheric abundances, which are 1 ppb (PH3) and 330 ppb (H2S), at the 2-sigma significance level.View original: http://arxiv.org/abs/1303.3023
