Scientific paper

The Lunar Prospector mission detected hydrogen-containing compounds in the
lunar polar regions. We have considered the comet hypothesis of the origin of
polar volatiles on the Moon. In the present paper we use our model of a comet
impact with photochemical processes to be included to estimate chemical
composition of volatiles which can be captured by the cold traps.
