Abstract

The aim of this study was to recreate experimentally ultracarbonaceous micrometeorites(UCMMs), in order to understand the behavior of organic compounds in the particles, to predict if this material can be liberated during atmospheric entry to Earth. The experiment was carried out using the Citlalmitl equipment at ICN-UNAM.
