Whistler waves observed by Solar Orbiter / RPW between 0.5 AU and 1 AU

M. Kretzschmar, T. Chust, V. Krasnoselskikh +29

The goal of our study is to detect and characterize the electromagnetic waves that can modify the electron distribution functions, with a special attention to whistler waves. We an…

The Castalia Mission to Main Belt Comet 133P/Elst-Pizarro

C. Snodgrass, G. H. Jones, H. Boehnhardt +41

We describe Castalia, a proposed mission to rendezvous with a Main Belt Comet (MBC), 133P/Elst-Pizarro. MBCs are a recently discovered population of apparently icy bodies within th…
