Scientific paper

Titan, the largest moon of Saturn, has a dense atmosphere of about 1.4 bar composed of 98% of nitrogen, 1.4 to 5% of methane and a wide variety of organic trace species produced by a complex photochemistry. Some of these species polymerize to form several haze layers. The most remarkable feature is a global detached haze layer around 510 km, which dropped by 150 km at the equinox. Up to now, the exact origin and nature of this haze is under a vigourous debate. In this work we investigated the origin and nature of this haze and we studied the aerosols with respect to the latitude.
