Chemical Kinetics Simulations of Ice Chemistry on Porous Versus Non-Porous Dust Grains
The degree of porosity in interstellar dust-grain material is poorly defined, although recent work has suggested that the grains could be highly porous. Aside from influencing the optical properties of the dust, porosity has the potential to affect the chemistry occurring on dust-grain surfaces, via...
