Coma Volatile Composition and Thermal Physics in Comet C/2022 E3 (ZTF) Measured Near Closest Approach to Earth with NASA-IRTF
Nathan X. Roth, Michael A. DiSanti, Boncho P. Bonev +9
The 2023 perihelion passage of comet C/2022 E3 (ZTF) afforded an opportunity to measure the abundances and spatial distributions of coma volatiles in an Oort cloud comet at high sp…
Chemical composition of comets C/2021 A1 (Leonard) and C/2022 E3 (ZTF) from radio spectroscopy and the abundance of HCOOH and HNCO in comets
N. Biver, D. Bockelee-Morvan, B. Handzlik +14
We present the results of a molecular survey of long period comets C/2021 A1 (Leonard) and C/2022 E3 (ZTF). Comet C/2021 A1 was observed with the IRAM 30-m radio telescope in Novem…
Chemistry of comet atmospheres
Nicolas Biver, Neil Dello Russo, Cyrielle Opitom +1
The composition of cometary ices provides key information on the thermal and chemical properties of the outer parts of the protoplanetary disk where they formed 4.6 Gy ago. This ch…
Operating Spacecraft Around Comets: Evaluation of the Near-Nucleus Environment
C. M. Lisse, M. R. Combi, T. L. Farnham +9
We present a study of the current state of knowledge concerning spacecraft operations and potential hazards while operating near a comet nucleus. Starting from simple calculations…
Lucy Mission to the Trojan Asteroids: Instrumentation and Encounter Concept of Operations
Catherine B. Olkin, Harold F. Levison, Michael Vincent +19
The Lucy Mission accomplishes its science during a series of five flyby encounters with seven Trojan asteroid targets. This mission architecture drives a concept of operations desi…
Rapidly Varying Anisotropic Methanol (CHOH) Production in the Inner Coma of Comet 46P/Wirtanen as Revealed by the ALMA Atacama Compact Array
Nathan X. Roth, Stefanie N. Milam, Martin A. Cordiner +13
We report the detection of CHOH emission in comet 46P/Wirtanen on UT 2018 December 8 and 9 using the Atacama Compact Array (ACA), part of the Atacama Large Millimeter/Submillim…
