1D-coupled photochemical model of neutrals, cations and anions in the atmosphere of Titan

Despite an overall improvement in the chemical model, disagreement for some specific compounds (HC3N, C2H5CN, C2H4) highlights the role that certain physical processes could play (meridional dynamics or sticking on aerosols). We find that some critical key reactions are important for many compounds including both neutrals and ions and should be studied in priority to lower the remaining model uncertainties. Extensive studies for some specific processes (including photolyses) are required.
