Table 4

Desorption rate parameters for the five pure ices.

ν0/1027 E des Estimated
Species (mol cm-2 s-1) (K) Edes (K)

CO 6.5 890 ± 35 899
CO2 5.2 2605 2625
NH3 2.1 2965 ± 80 3070
CH3OH 5.3 4355 4366
H2O 32.1 5165 ± 55 5172

Notes. Columns 2 and 3: Pre-exponential constants and binding energies assuming the Polanyi-Wigner desorption rate equation and zeroth order kinetics. Errors arise from the range of values leading to a similar χ2. Column 4: estimated binding energy from Eq. (4).
