Observations of High Galactic Latitude Line and Continuum Emission (912 - 1600 Å) with New Horizons

Jayant Murthy, James Overduin, Seth Redfield +5

We present observations of the cosmic ultraviolet background (CUVB) from 912 - 1600 A using the Stem aperture of the Alice spectrograph on the New Horizons spacecraft at 56 AU from…

A Contact Binary Satellite of the Asteroid (152830) Dinkinesh

Harold F. Levison, Simone Marchi, Keith S. Noll +3

Asteroids with diameters less than about 5 km have complex histories because they are small enough for radiative torques, YORP, to be a notable factor in their evolution. (152830)…

Spatial Distribution of Ultraviolet Emission from Cometary Activity at 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko

John W. Noonan, Dominique Bockelée-Morvan, Paul D. Feldman +16

The Alice ultraviolet spectrograph on board the \textit{Rosetta} orbiter provided the first near-nucleus ultraviolet observations of a cometary coma from arrival at comet 67P/Chury…

Analysis of Hybrid Gas-Dust Outbursts Observed at 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko

John W. Noonan, Giovanna Rinaldi, Paul D. Feldman +14

Cometary outbursts offer a valuable window into the composition of comet nuclei with their forceful ejection of dust and volatiles in explosive events, revealing the interior compo…

Persephone: A Pluto-System Orbiter and Kuiper Belt Explorer

Carly Howett, Stuart Robbins, Bryan J. Holler +40

Persephone is a NASA concept mission study that addresses key questions raised by New Horizons' encounters with Kuiper Belt objects (KBOs), with arguably the most important being "…
