Synthesis of the Morphological Description of Cometary Dust at Comet 67P
C. Güttler, T. Mannel, A. Rotundi +28
Before Rosetta, the space missions Giotto and Stardust shaped our view on cometary dust, supported by plentiful data from Earth based observations and interplanetary dust particles…
Activity of the Jupiter co-orbital comet P/2019~LD (ATLAS) observed with OSIRIS at the 10.4 m GTC
J. Licandro, J. de Leon, F. Moreno +8
Jupiter co-orbital comets have orbits that are not long-term stable. They may experience flybys with Jupiter close enough to trigger tidal disruptions like the one suffered by come…
Water-ice driven activity on Main-Belt Comet P/2010 A2 (LINEAR) ?
F. Moreno, J. Licandro, G. -P. Tozzi +8
The dust ejecta of Main-Belt Comet P/2010 A2 (LINEAR) have been observed with several telescopes at the at the Observatorio del Roque de los Muchachos on La Palma, Spain. Applicati…
Sublimation of icy aggregates in the coma of comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko detected with the OSIRIS cameras onboard Rosetta
A. Gicquel, J. -B. Vincent, J. Agarwal +58
Beginning in March 2014, the OSIRIS (Optical, Spectroscopic, and Infrared Remote Imaging System) cameras began capturing images of the nucleus and coma (gas and dust) of comet 67P/…
Are fractured cliffs the source of cometary dust jets ? Insights from OSIRIS/Rosetta at 67P
J. -B. Vincent, N. Oklay, M. Pajola +52
Dust jets, i.e. fuzzy collimated streams of cometary material arising from the nucleus, have been observed in-situ on all comets since the Giotto mission flew by comet 1P/Halley in…
Optical inspection of manufactured nanohole arrays to bridge the lab-industry gap
A. Franco, D. Otaduy, A. I. Barreda +4
Metallic nanohole arrays have shown their potential as sensing tools. Important research supported by sophisticated laboratory experiments have been recently carried out, that may…
