The Formation of Nucleobases from the Ultraviolet Photo-Irradiation of Purine in Simple Astrophysical Ice Analogs

Nucleobases are the informational subunits of RNA and DNA and are essential to all known forms of life. The nucleobases can be divided into two groups of molecules: the pyrimidine-based compounds that include uracil, cytosine, and thymine, and the purine-based compounds that include adenine and guan...
