Nitrous oxide, N2O, is found in the interstellar medium associated with dense molecular clouds and its abundance explained by active chemistry occurring on N2 rich ice surfaces of dust grains. Such regions are being constantly exposed to ionizing radiation that triggers chemical processes which change abundances time. Due non-zero dipole moment, N2O can be used as an important tracer for such well characterization nitrogen content ices outer bodies Solar system. In this work, we...
