• Interstellar Ice: The Infrared Space Observatory Legacy (2004, background): “…searches have focused on the gas phase (see Snyder 1997 for a review), but recent work has emphasized the possibility that they might be a minor constituent of ices that have been subjected to UV INTERSTELLAR ICE 61No. 1, 2004 photolysis (Bernstein et al. 2002; Munoz Caro et al. 2002; Woon 2002).”
