• PHOTOCHEMISTRY IN TERRESTRIAL EXOPLANET ATMOSPHERES. I. PHOTOCHEMISTRY MODEL AND BENCHMARK CASES (2012, background): “The number density of hydrocarbons that have more than 4 carbon atoms (usually considered to be condensable) is ∼ 4 orders of magnitude smaller than the number density of C2H6 at the steady state (e.g. Allen et al. 1980; Yung et al. 1984; Pavlov et al. 2001).”
