29P/Schwassmann-Wachmann: A Rosetta Stone for Amorphous Water Ice and CO <-> CO2 Conversion in Centaurs and Comets?
C. M. Lisse, J. K. Steckloff, D. Prialnik +12
Centaur 29P/Schwassmann-Wachmann 1 (SW1) is a highly active object orbiting in the transitional Gateway region (Sarid et al. 2019) between the Centaur and Jupiter Family Comet regi…
Presolar stardust in asteroid Ryugu
Jens Barosch, Larry R. Nittler, Jianhua Wang +121
We have conducted a NanoSIMS-based search for presolar material in samples recently returned from C-type asteroid Ryugu as part of JAXA's Hayabusa2 mission. We report the detection…
A Predicted Dearth of Majority Hypervolatile Ices in Oort Cloud Comets
C. M. Lisse, G. R. Gladstone, L. A. Young +30
We present new, ice species-specific New Horizons/Alice upper gas coma production limits from the 01 Jan 2019 MU69/Arrokoth flyby of Gladstone et al. (2021) and use them to make pr…
The Case for Non-Cryogenic Comet Nucleus Sample Return
Keiko Nakamura-Messenger, Alexander G. Hayes, Scott Sandford +22
Comets hold answers to mysteries of the Solar System by recording presolar history, the initial states of planet formation and prebiotic organics and volatiles to the early Earth.…
On the Origin and Thermal Stability of Arrokoths and Plutos Ices
C. M. Lisse, L. A. Young, D. P. Cruikshank +30
We discuss in a thermodynamic, geologically empirical way the long-term nature of the stable majority ices that could be present in Kuiper Belt Object 2014 MU69 after its 4.6 Gyr r…
Cryogenic Cometary Sample Return
Andrew J. Westphal, Larry R. Nittler, Rhonda Stroud +11
Comets likely formed in the outer regions of the protosolar nebula where they incorporated and preserved primitive presolar materials, volatiles resident in the outer disk, and mor…
Volatile Sample Return in the Solar System
Stefanie N. Milam, Jason P. Dworkin, Jamie E. Elsila +17
We advocate for the realization of volatile sample return from various destinations including: small bodies, the Moon, Mars, ocean worlds/satellites, and plumes. As part of recent…
Small Bodies Tell the Story of the Solar System: A Scientific Rationale for a Multi-Target Small Body Sample Return Program including the Earth-based Laboratory Analysis of Returned Samples
Seth A. Jacobson, Maitrayee Bose, Dennis Bodewits +6
Small bodies are time-capsules of different eras of solar system history from the most primitive materials within the solar system to evolved pieces of larger bodies. A small body…
The Efficiency of Noble Gas Trapping in Astrophysical Environments
Fred Ciesla, Sebastiaan Krijt, Reika Yokochi +1
Amorphous ice has long been invoked as a means for trapping extreme volatiles into solids, explaining the abundances of these species in comets and planetary atmospheres. Experimen…
Fine-grained Material Associated with a Large Sulfide returned from Comet 81P/Wild 2
Zack Gainsforth, Andrew J. Westphal, Anna L. Butterworth +10
In a consortium analysis of a large particle captured from the coma of comet 81P/Wild 2 by the Stardust spacecraft, we report the discovery of a field of fine-grained material (FGM…
Ices in the Quiescent IC 5146 Dense Cloud
J. E. Chiar, Y. J. Pendleton, L. J. Allamandola +14
This paper presents spectra in the 2 to 20 micron range of quiescent cloud material located in the IC 5146 cloud complex. The spectra were obtained with NASA's Infrared Telescope F…
Training of Instrumentalists and Development of New Technologies on SOFIA
Edwin F. Erickson, Louis J. Allamandola, Jean-Paul Baluteau +47
This white paper is submitted to the Astronomy and Astrophysics 2010 Decadal Survey (Astro2010)1 Committee on the State of the Profession to emphasize the potential of the Stratosp…
