Considerations on the process of target selection for the Comet Interceptor mission
C. Snodgrass, E. Mazzotta Epifani, C. Tubiana +27
Comet Interceptor is an ESA science mission with payload contributions from ESA Member States and with an international participation by JAXA. It is the first mission that is being…
Evolutionary Processes in the Centaur Region
Rosita Kokotanekova, Aurélie Guilbert-Lepoutre, Matthew M. Knight +1
Centaurs populate relatively short-lived and rapidly evolving orbits in the giant-planet region and are believed to be one of the solar system's most complex and diverse population…
Very Large Telescope Observations of Interstellar Comet 3I/ATLAS. II. From Quiescence to Glow: Dramatic Rise of Ni i Emission and Incipient CN Outgassing at Large Heliocentric Distances*
Rohan Rahatgaonkar, Juan Pablo Carvajal, Thomas H. Puzia +25
We report VLT spectroscopy of the interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS (C/2025~N1) from to ~au using X-shooter (300--550\,nm, ) and UVES (opt…
Recent Chemo-morphological Coma Evolution of Comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko
Brian P. Murphy, Cyrielle Opitom, Colin Snodgrass +5
We present VLT/MUSE observations of comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko during its 2021 perihelion passage, from which we generated simultaneous maps of dust, [OI], C, NH, and…
Snapshot of a new interstellar comet: 3I/ATLAS has a red and featureless spectrum
Cyrielle Opitom, Colin Snodgrass, Emmanuel Jehin +19
The interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS is only the third interstellar object to be discovered. Pre-perihelion measurements provide a unique opportunity to study its activity and compositi…
Multi-wavelength JWST observations of (3200) Phaethon show a dehydrated object with an aqueously altered origin
Cristina A. Thomas, Andrew S. Rivkin, Ian Wong +10
We present JWST observations of the near-Earth asteroid (3200) Phaethon using the Near-Infrared Camera (NIRCam), Near-Infrared Spectrograph (NIRSpec), and Mid-Infrared Instrument (…
