Comparison between the initial and updated chemical schemes.

Initial chemical scheme Revised chemical scheme
Neutral species 99 131
Ionic species 83 89
Neutral-neutral reactions 419 710
Ion-neutral reactions 468 582
Photodissociations 124 170
Photoionizations 25 32
Dissociative recombinations 236 264
ME/GCR reactions 6 6
Total number of reactions 1278 1764

Notes. The initial chemical scheme comes from the model of Titan’s atmosphere from Dobrijevic et al. (2016) which we used as a basis for our work. The revised chemical scheme is used in our actual model of Triton’s atmosphere. Here, “ME” is used for magnetospheric electrons and “GCR” for Gamma Cosmic Rays. The “Neutral-neutral reactions” column regroups the two-body, three-body, bimolecular, and termolecular reactions.
