Assessing the long-term variability of acetylene and ethane in the stratosphere of Jupiter
Acetylene (C 2 H 2 ) and ethane (C 2 H 6 ) are both produced in the stratosphere of Jupiter via photolysis of methane (CH 4 ). Despite this common source, the latitudinal distribution of the two species is radically different, with acetylene decreasing in abundance towards the pole, and ethane incre...
