Laboratory experiments allow the scientific to simulate some of the conditions where the molecules of astrophysical interest are synthesized, and to study likely mechanisms that could have led to produce them. In a typical astrophysics laboratory many relevant physical properties (optical constants, density, absorbance, etc) can be studied along with their variations induced by temperature changes and UV or ion irradiation. In this work, we want to offer to the reader a general overview of the components of a typical astrophysics laboratory. In addition, we will present some results obtained after carrying out experiments on ion irradiation of ices. These experiments are carbon implantation in water ice and ion irradiation of methane. Finally, some astrophysical applications are shown to highlight the possibilities of this kind of experiments.
