“…The CO photodesorption rate furthermore strongly depends on the deposition temperature, as has been discussed by several groups (Öberg et al 2009b;Muñoz Caro et al 2010, 2016. In parallel, many more studies have been performed on other pure ices, including H 2 O, N 2 , CO 2 , O 2 (O 3 ), and CH 3 OH, as well as a few mixed ices, CO:N 2 , CO:H 2 O, and CO:CH 3 OH (Öberg et al 2009a;Hama et al 2010;Chen et al 2011;Bahr & Baragiola 2012;Bertin et al 2012Bertin et al , 2013Bertin et al , 2016Fayolle et al 2013;Yuan & Yates 2013;Fillion et al 2014;Zhen & Linnartz 2014;Martín-Doménech et al 2015). In many of these studies it became clear that upon VUV photolysis, molecules not only photodesorb, but may also be involved in photo-induced reactions (Öberg 2016) substantially complicating the analysis, as photoproducts may photodesorb as well (see e.g.…”
