Hydrogen cyanide in nitrogen-rich atmospheres of rocky exoplanets
Hydrogen cyanide (HCN) is a key feedstock molecule for the production of life's building blocks. The formation of HCN in an N2-rich atmospheres requires first that the triple bond between N≡N be severed, and then that the atomic nitrogen find a carbon atom. These two tasks can be accomplished v...
