Photometric and Spectroscopic Observations of Comet 2P/Encke's Nucleus in the Mid-Infrared Wavelength Region

Takafumi Ootsubo, Hideyo Kawakita, Jun-ichi Watanabe +2

We observed comet 2P/Encke with the Cooled Mid-Infrared Camera and Spectrometer (COMICS) on the Subaru telescope on UT 2003 November 12.3, when the comet was at heliocentric and ge…

A post-perihelion constraint on the CO/HO ratio of interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS from [O I] forbidden lines

Yoshiharu Shinnaka, Ko Tsujimoto, Hideyo Kawakita +3

We present high-resolution optical spectroscopy of interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS (C/2025 N1) obtained with the High Dispersion Spectrograph mounted on the Subaru Telescope on UT 2026…

A search for water vapor plumes on Europa by spatially resolved spectroscopic observation using Subaru/IRCS

Jun Kimura, Taro Matsuo, Hitomi Kobayashi +4

We present near-infrared high-dispersion spectroscopic observations of Europa using the Infrared Camera and Spectrograph (IRCS) onboard the Subaru Telescope, seeking direct evidenc…

First Result for Dark Matter Search by WINERED

Wen Yin, Taiki Bessho, Yuji Ikeda +10

The identity of dark matter has been a mystery in astronomy, cosmology, and particle theory for about a century. Bessho, Ikeda, and Yin (2022), three of the current authors, propos…

Survey of near-infrared diffuse interstellar bands in and bands. I. Newly identified bands

Satoshi Hamano, Naoto Kobayashi, Hideyo Kawakita +12

We searched for diffuse interstellar bands (DIBs) in the 0.911.33 m region by analyzing the near-infrared (NIR) high-resolution ( and 28,000) spectra of 31 redden…

First detection of -- (0,0) bands of interstellar C and CN

Satoshi Hamano, Hideyo Kawakita, Naoto Kobayashi +12

We report the first detection of C -- (0,0) and CN -- (0,0) absorption bands in the interstellar medium. The detection was made using the near…
