Detecting and analysing geomorphological structures in images of comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko using Fourier transform

Birko-Katarina Ruzicka, Matthias Schröter, Andreas Pack +1

We present a method for automatised detection and analysis of quasi-periodic lineament structures from images at pixel-precision. The method exploits properties of the images' freq…

Mt. Wendelstein imaging of comet 41P/Tuttle-Giacobini-Kresak during the 2017 perihelion arc

Hermann Boehnhardt, Arno Riffeser, Christoph Ries +2

Comet 41P/Tuttle-Giacobini-Kresak (41P), a Jupiter family comet with three discoveries over about 100 years, is in a short-periodic orbit around the Sun with the perihelion close t…

Analysis of layering-related linear features on comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko

Birko-Katarina Ruzicka, Luca Penasa, Hermann Boehnhardt +4

We analysed layering-related linear features on the surface of comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko (67P) to determine the internal configuration of the layerings within the nucleus. We…

The Castalia Mission to Main Belt Comet 133P/Elst-Pizarro

C. Snodgrass, G. H. Jones, H. Boehnhardt +41

We describe Castalia, a proposed mission to rendezvous with a Main Belt Comet (MBC), 133P/Elst-Pizarro. MBCs are a recently discovered population of apparently icy bodies within th…
