Very Large Telescope observations of interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS III: High-resolution monitoring of CN and forbidden oxygen emission across the perihelion passage with ESPRESSO
Baltasar Luco, Thomas H. Puzia, Rohan Rahatgaonkar +2
We characterize in 3I/ATLAS the heliocentric evolution of the CN production rate and the forbidden [OI] emission, describe the broader emission line inventory, and release the anal…
Pre-perihelion evolution of the NiI/FeI abundance ratio in the coma of the interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS. From extreme to normal
Damien Hutsemékers, Jean Manfroid, Emmanuël Jehin +9
Emission lines of FeI and NiI are commonly found in the coma of Solar System comets, even at large heliocentric distances. These atoms are most likely released from the surface of…
Spectral Characteristics of Interstellar Object 3I/ATLAS from SOAR Observations
Thomas H. Puzia, Rohan Rahatgaonkar, Juan Pablo Carvajal +2
Interstellar objects (ISOs) provide unique insights into the building blocks and conditions of extrasolar planetary systems. The newly discovered object, 3I/ATLAS (C/2025 N1), repr…
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…
