- Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) make up about 20% of carbon in the interstellar medium and can form under various conditions, including in hot circumstellar environments and cold interstellar clouds.
- Isotopic analysis of PAHs from asteroid Ryugu and meteorite Murchison shows that some PAHs, like naphthalene, fluoranthene, and pyrene, have higher carbon isotopic values than expected, indicating they likely formed in the interstellar medium rather than in hot environments.
- In contrast, the PAHs phenanthrene and anthracene from Ryugu display isotopic values that suggest they were formed through higher-temperature reactions.
Japanese sake is a traditional alcoholic beverage composed of a wide variety of metabolites, which give it many types of tastes and flavors. Previously, we have reported that medium-chain fatty acids contribute to a fatty odor in sake (Takahashi, K., et al.
