Original Abstract

The search of life precursors became hot topic mainly during the last two decades because of discovery many exoplanet, some of them should be also suitable for the life formation. One of the life precursors’ synthesis ways is operation of electrical discharges in so called prebiotic atmospheres. One of them is also related to the atmosphere of Mars where is also possibility to compare laboratory data with some in situ observations. The presented contribution gives results obtained using glow discharge operating in carbon dioxide atmosphere with traces of nitrogen, hydrogen, and methane at atmospheric pressure and ambient temperature. Many discharge created species were determined using in situ PTR-TOF mass spectrometry.
