Strong variability of Martian water ice clouds during dust storms revealed from ExoMars Trace Gas Orbiter/NOMAD

Giuliano Liuzzi, Geronimo L. Villanueva, Matteo M. J. Crismani +12

Observations of water ice clouds and aerosols on Mars can provide important insights into the complexity of the water cycle. Recent observations have indicated an important link be…

Diurnal variation of dust and gas production in comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko at the inbound equinox as seen by OSIRIS and VIRTIS-M on board Rosetta

C. Tubiana, G. Rinaldi, C. Güttler +53

On 27 Apr 2015, when 67P/C-G was at 1.76 au from the Sun and moving towards perihelion, the OSIRIS and VIRTIS-M instruments on Rosetta observed the evolving dust and gas coma durin…

Surface evolution of the Anhur region on comet 67P from high-resolution OSIRIS images

S. Fornasier, C. Feller, P. H. Hasselmann +34

The southern hemisphere of comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko (67P) became observable by the Rosetta mission in March 2015, a few months before cometary southern vernal equinox. The A…

ROSETTA/OSIRIS observations of the 67P nucleus during the April 2016 flyby: high-resolution spectrophotometry

C. Feller, S. Fornasier, S. Ferrari +35

In April 2016, the Rosetta spacecraft performed a low-altitude low-phase-angle flyby over the Imhotep-Khepry transition of 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko's nucleus. The OSIRIS/Narrow-An…

Models of Rosetta/OSIRIS 67P dust coma phase function

Fernando Moreno, Daniel Guirado, Olga Muñoz +39

The phase function of the dust coma of comet 67P has been determined from Rosetta/OSIRIS images \citep{Bertini17}. This function show a deep minimum at phase angles near 100$^\circ…

Seasonal Mass Transfer on the Nucleus of Comet 67P/Chuyumov-Gerasimenko

H. U. Keller, S. Mottola, S. F. Hviid +47

We collect observational evidence that supports the scheme of mass transfer on the nucleus of comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko. The obliquity of the rotation axis of 67P causes stro…

The 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko observation campaign in support of the Rosetta mission

C. Snodgrass, M. F. A'Hearn, F. Aceituno +112

We present a summary of the campaign of remote observations that supported the European Space Agency's Rosetta mission. Telescopes across the globe (and in space) followed comet 67…

Dust environment and dynamical history of a sample of short period comets

F. J. Pozuelos, F. Moreno, F. Aceituno +53

Aims. In this work, we present an extended study of the dust environment of a sample of short period comets and their dynamical history. With this aim, we characterized the dust ta…
