Hitler acid can exist on Uranus and Neptune

Russian scientists believe that under Uranus, Neptune and orbiting satellites may contain Hitler acid, a special material mix that does not exist on Earth.

Chemical expert group from Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology (MIPT) and Skolkovo Institute of Science and Technology (Skoltech), Russia, found that new molecules could be under the Uranus shell, Neptune, and Their satellites are by modeling, according to results published on September 6 in Scientific Reports.

Uranus and Neptune contain large amounts of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen. By reconstructing atmospheric pressure conditions at several million atm, scientists can observe and predict the formation of anomalous compounds within these planets.

Professor Artem R. Oganov's team at MIPT develops the world's most powerful algorithm called USPEX to predict the crystal structure and the existence of compounds. "The core of Uranus and Neptune may contain strange material , " Professor Oganov said.

Oganov and his colleague Gabriele Saleh searched all stable compounds in the range of up to 4 million atm and discovered many new substances that did not exist at Earth's atmospheric conditions. These may be unknown variants of salt, including Na ₃ Cl, NaCl ₃ , NaCl ₇ , Na ₃ Cl ₂ and Na ₄ Cl ₃ , as well as new oxides of magnesium, silicon, and aluminum. Several extremely rare compounds such as carbonic acid (H ₂ CO ₃ ) and orthocarbonic acid (H ₄ CO ₄ ) are also formed.

At pressures above 10,000 atm, carbonic acid H ₂ CO ₃ becomes stable. When the pressure rises to 450,000 atm, carbonic acid converts into a stable polymer to a pressure of 4 million atmospheres. In addition, at three million atmospheric pressure, an exothermic reaction between carbonic acid and water can form orthocarbonic acid H ₄ CO ₄ . This is a human compound that cannot be synthesized in the laboratory because they are very unstable in normal conditions. The molecular structure of orthocarbonic acid is like the swastika , the Nazi symbol, so it is named Hitler acid.
