GALACTIC COSMIC RAY CHEMISTRY. “Some authors have proposed that high-energy particles could produce the amino acid glycine on extraterrestrial ices. It is proposed that biologically useful products, using a similar mechanism, can be produced in subsurface environments by Galactic cosmic rays-induced secondaries. Charged particles directly interact with ice and produce a number of biologically useful secondary products.” https://royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/rsif.2016.0459 View in LinkedIn
