ESA F-Class Comet Interceptor: Trajectory Design to Intercept a Yet-to-be-discovered Comet
Joan Pau Sánchez, David Morante, Pablo Hermosin +8
Comet Interceptor (Comet-I) was selected in June 2019 as the first ESA F-Class mission. In 2029+, Comet-I will hitch a ride to a Sun-Earth L2 quasi-halo orbit, as a co-passenger of…
Zodiacal light observations and its link with cosmic dust: a review
Jeremie Lasue, Anny-Chantal Levasseur-Regourd, Jean-Baptiste Renard
The zodiacal light is a night-glow mostly visible along the plane of the ecliptic. It represents the background radiation associated with solar light scattered by the tenuous flatt…
Linking studies of tiny meteoroids, zodiacal dust, cometary dust and circumstellar disks
Anny-Chantal Levasseur-Regourd, Clément Baruteau, Jérémie Lasue +2
Tiny meteoroids entering the Earth's atmosphere and inducing meteor showers have long been thought to originate partly from cometary dust. Together with other dust particles, they…
AMBITION -- Comet Nucleus Cryogenic Sample Return (White paper for ESA's Voyage 2050 programme)
D. Bockelée-Morvan, G. Filacchione, K. Altwegg +27
This white paper proposes that AMBITION, a Comet Nucleus Sample Return mission, be a cornerstone of ESA's Voyage 2050 programme. We summarise some of the most important questions s…
Dust of comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko collected by Rosetta/MIDAS: classification and extension to the nanometre scale
T. Mannel, M. S. Bentley, P. D. Boakes +9
The properties of the smallest subunits of cometary dust contain information on their origin and clues to the formation of planetesimals and planets. Compared to IDPs or particles…
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…
