CHO-bearing molecules in Comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko
Markus Schuhmann, Kathrin Altwegg, Hans Balsiger +10
In 2004, the Rosetta spacecraft was sent to comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko for the first ever long-term investigation of a comet. After its arrival in 2014, the spacecraft spent m…
The O/O ratio in Water in the Coma of Comet 67P / Churyumov-Gerasimenko measured with the Rosetta / ROSINA Double-Focusing Mass Spectrometer
Isaac R. H. G. Schroeder, Kathrin Altwegg, Hans Balsiger +11
The European Space Agency (ESA) spacecraft Rosetta accompanied the Jupiter-family comet (JFC) 67P / Churyumov-Gerasimenko for over two years along its trajectory through the inner…
Krypton isotopes and noble gas abundances in the coma of comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko
Martin Rubin, Kathrin Altwegg, Hans Balsiger +24
The ROSINA mass spectrometer DFMS on board ESA's Rosetta spacecraft detected the major isotopes of the noble gases argon, krypton, and xenon in the coma of comet 67P/Churyumov-Gera…
Evidence for depletion of heavy silicon isotopes at comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko
M. Rubin, K. Altwegg, H. Balsiger +17
Context. The Rosetta Orbiter Spectrometer for Ion and Neutral Analysis (ROSINA) was designed to measure the composition of the gas in the coma of comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko, t…
