The Near-Centaur Environment: Satellites, Rings, and Debris
A. A. Sickafoose, S. M. Giuliatti Winter, R. Leiva +3
The unexpected finding of a ring system around the Centaur (10199) Chariklo opened a new window for dynamical studies and posed many questions about the formation and evolutionary…
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…
Comet Science With Ground Based and Space Based Surveys in the New Millennium
J. M. Bauer, Y. R. Fernández, S. Protopapa +1
We summarize the comet science provided by surveys. This includes surveys where the detections of comets are an advantageous benefit but were not part of the surveyś original inten…
The Nature of Low-Albedo Small Bodies from 3-m Spectroscopy: One Group that Formed Within the Ammonia Snow Line and One that Formed Beyond It
Andrew S. Rivkin, Joshua P. Emery, Ellen S. Howell +9
We present evidence, via a large survey of 191 new spectra along with previously-published spectra, of a divide in the 3-m spectral properties of the low-albedo asteroid populat…
Repeating gas ejection events from comet 45P/Honda-Mrkos-Pajdušáková
Alessondra Springmann, Walter M. Harris, Erin L. Ryan +6
Studying materials released from Jupiter-family comets (JFCs) -- as seen in their inner comæ, the envelope of gas and dust that forms as the comet approaches the Sun -- improves th…
Characterization of Thermal Infrared Dust Emission and Refinements to the Nucleus Properties of Centaur 29P/Schwassmann-Wachmann 1
Charles A. Schambeau, Yanga R. Fernandez, Nalin H. Samarasinha +4
We present analyses of Spitzer observations of 29P/Schwassmann-Wachmann 1 using 16 m IRS "blue" peak-up (PU) and 24 m and 70 m MIPS images obtained on UT 2003 November 23…
Contemporaneous Multi-Wavelength and Precovery Observations of Active Centaur P/2019 LD2 (ATLAS
Theodore Kareta, Laura M. Woodney, Charles Schambeau +10
Gateway Centaur and Jupiter co-orbital P/2019 LD2 (ATLAS) (Sarid et al. 2019) provides the first opportunity to observe the migration of a Solar System small body from a Centaur or…
Strength In Diversity: Small Bodies as the Most Important Objects in Planetary Sciences
Laura M. Woodney, Andrew S. Rivkin, Walter Harris +9
Small bodies, the unaccreted leftovers of planetary formation, are often mistaken for the leftovers of planetary science in the sense that they are everything else after the planet…
Analysis of HST WFPC2 Observations of Centaur 29P/Schwassmann-Wachmann 1 while in Outburst to Place Constraints on the Nucleus' Rotation State
Charles Schambeau, Yanga Fernandez, Nalin Samarasinha +2
We present analysis of {\it Hubble Space Telescope} (HST) observations of Centaur 29P/Schwassmann-Wachmann 1 (SW1) while in outburst to characterize the outburst coma and place con…
29P/Schwassmann-Wachmann 1, A Centaur in the Gateway to the Jupiter-Family Comets
Gal Sarid, Kathryn Volk, Jordan Steckloff +3
Jupiter-family comets (JFCs) are the evolutionary products of trans-Neptunian objects (TNOs) that evolve through the giant planet region as Centaurs and into the inner solar system…
Asteroids and Comets
Yanga R. Fernandez, Jian-Yang Li, Ellen S. Howell +1
Asteroids and comets are remnants from the era of Solar System formation over 4.5 billion years ago, and therefore allow us to address two fundamental questions in astronomy: what…
A New Analysis of Spitzer Observations of Comet 29P/Schwassmann-Wachmann 1
Charles A. Schambeau, Yanga R. Fernandez, Carey M. Lisse +2
We present a new analysis of observations of comet 29P/Schwassmann-Wachmann 1 taken on UT 2003 November 21, 23, and 24, similar to a previous investigation of the o…
A Dynamical Analysis of the Dust Tail of Comet C/1995 O1 (Hale-Bopp) at High Heliocentric Distances
Emily A. Kramer, Yanga R. Fernandez, Carey M. Lisse +2
Comet C/1995 O1 (Hale-Bopp) has provided an unprecedented opportunity to observe a bright comet over a wide range of heliocentric distances. We present here Spitzer Space Telescope…
The Distribution, Excitation and Formation of Cometary Molecules: Methanol, Methyl Cyanide and Ethylene Glycol
Anthony J. Remijan, Stefanie N. Milam, Maria Womack +12
We present an interferometric and single dish study of small organic species toward Comets C/1995 O1 (Hale-Bopp) and C/2002 T7 (LINEAR) using the BIMA interferometer at 3 mm and th…
Combined BIMA and OVRO observations of comet C/1999 S4 (LINEAR)
M. R. Hogerheijde, I. de Pater, M. Wright +12
We present results from an observing campaign of the molecular content of the coma of comet C/1999 S4 (LINEAR) carried out jointly with the millimeter-arrays of the Berkeley-Illino…
