Juice-SWI during the Lunar-Earth-Gravity-Assist (LEGA) - Part 2: Instrument operations
T. Cavalié, R. Moreno, L. Rezac +17
The Jupiter Icy Moons Explorer (Juice) embarked in 2023 on a 8-year interplanetary journey to Jupiter and its icy moons. The Submillimetre Wave Instrument (SWI) is one of the ten s…
Water, hydrogen cyanide, carbon monoxide, and dust production from distant comet 29P/Schwassmann-Wachmann 1
D. Bockelée-Morvan, N. Biver, C. A. Schambeau +13
29P/Schwassmann-Wachmann 1 is a distant Centaur/comet, showing persistent CO-driven activity and frequent outbursts. We used the Herschel space observatory in 2010, 2011, and 2013…
Herschel observations of gas and dust in comet C/2006 W3 (Christensen) at 5 AU from the Sun
M. de Val-Borro, D. Bockelée-Morvan, E. Jehin +19
We aimed to measure the H2O and dust production rates in C/2006 W3 (Christensen) with the Herschel Space Observatory at a heliocentric distance of ~ 5 AU. We have searched for emis…
Searches for HCl and HF in comets 103P/Hartley 2 and C/2009 P1 (Garradd) with the Herschel space observatory
D. Bockelée-Morvan, N. Biver, J. Crovisier +20
HCl and HF are expected to be the main reservoirs of fluorine and chlorine wherever hydrogen is predominantly molecular. They are found to be strongly depleted in dense molecular c…
A Herschel Study of D/H in Water in the Jupiter-Family Comet 45P/Honda-Mrkos-Pajdusakova and Prospects for D/H Measurements with CCAT
D. C. Lis, N. Biver, D. Bockelee-Morvan +11
We present Herschel observations of water isotopologues in the atmosphere of the Jupiter-family comet 45P/Honda-Mrkos-Pajdusakova. No HDO emission is detected, with a 3 sigma upper…
An upper limit for the water outgassing rate of the main-belt comet 176P/LINEAR observed with Herschel/HIFI
M. de Val-Borro, L. Rezac, P. Hartogh +15
176P/LINEAR is a member of the new cometary class known as main-belt comets (MBCs). It displayed cometary activity shortly during its 2005 perihelion passage that may be driven by…
