Jupiter's Great Red Spot Is Composed Of Ammonia And Phosphine, Erika Rosenberger
Natural Sciences Student Research Presentations
In Jupiter's Great Red Spot, ammonia, phosphine, and para-Hydrogen were found. The Great Red Spot is the local maximum of ammonia, the most abundant compound of the atmosphere. The abundance of ammonia in the Spot is regulated by a complex interaction between photochemistry, condensation, precipitation, and atmospheric dynamics. Ammonia is found most abundant in the regions at around 400-500 mbar when phosphine is the most abundant at 600 mbar. The photo-dissociation reaction of phosphine that occurs in the Spot helps explain why the planet Jupiter and the Great Red Spot is red. The reaction sequence proposed by scientists Prinn and …
