A LOOK at Outbursts of Comet C/2014 UN (Bernardinelli-Bernstein) Near 20 au

Michael S. P. Kelley, Rosita Kokotanekova, Carrie E. Holt +10

Cometary activity may be driven by ices with very low sublimation temperatures, such as carbon monoxide ice, which can sublimate at distances well beyond 20 au. This point is empha…

Surface Properties of Near-Sun Asteroids

Carrie E. Holt, Matthew M. Knight, Michael S. P. Kelley +8

Near-Earth Asteroids (NEAs) with small perihelion distances reach sub-solar temperatures of > 1000 K. They are hypothesized to undergo "super-catastrophic" disruption, potentially…
