The source of electrons at comet 67P

P. Stephenson, A. Beth, J. Deca +8

We examine the origin of electrons in a weakly outgassing comet, using Rosetta mission data and a 3D collisional model of electrons at a comet. We have calculated a new dataset of…

Cometary Ionospheres: An Updated Tutorial

Arnaud Beth, Marina Galand, Cyril Simon Wedlund +1

This chapter aims at providing the tools and knowledge to understand and model the plasma environment surrounding comets in the innermost part near the nucleus. In particular, our…

Evolution of pits at the surface of 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko

Selma Benseguane, Aurélie Guilbert-Lepoutre, Jérémie Lasue +6

The observation of pits at the surface of comets offers the opportunity to take a glimpse into the properties and the mechanisms that shape a nucleus through cometary activity. If…

A fast bow shock location predictor-estimator from 2D and 3D analytical models: Application to Mars and the MAVEN mission

C. Simon Wedlund, M. Volwerk, A. Beth +5

We present fast algorithms to automatically estimate the statistical position of the bow shock from spacecraft data, using existing analytical two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimens…

Multi-instrument analysis of far-ultraviolet aurora in the southern hemisphere of comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko

P. Stephenson, M. Galand, P. D. Feldman +9

Aims. We aim to determine whether dissociative excitation of cometary neutrals by electron impact is the major source of far-ultraviolet (FUV) emissions at comet 67P/Churyumov-Gera…

ROSINA ion zoo at Comet 67P

A. Beth, K. Altwegg, H. Balsiger +9

The Rosetta spacecraft escorted Comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko for 2 years along its journey through the Solar System between 3.8 and 1.24~au. Thanks to the high resolution mass s…
