Cometary Plasma Science -- A White Paper in response to the Voyage 2050 Call by the European Space Agency
Charlotte Götz, Herber Gunell, Martin Volwerk +27
Comets hold the key to the understanding of our solar system, its formation and its evolution, and to the fundamental plasma processes at work both in it and beyond it. A comet nuc…
Solar wind charge exchange in cometary atmospheres. I. Charge-changing and ionization cross sections for He and H particles in HO
Cyril Simon Wedlund, Dennis Bodewits, Markku Alho +7
Solar wind charge-changing reactions are of paramount importance to the physico-chemistry of the atmosphere of a comet, mass-loading the solar wind through an effective conversion…
