Are fractured cliffs the source of cometary dust jets ? Insights from OSIRIS/Rosetta at 67P
J. -B. Vincent, N. Oklay, M. Pajola +52
Dust jets, i.e. fuzzy collimated streams of cometary material arising from the nucleus, have been observed in-situ on all comets since the Giotto mission flew by comet 1P/Halley in…
Temporal morphological changes in the Imhotep region of comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko
O. Groussin, H. Sierks, C. Barbieri +45
We report on the first major temporal morphological changes observed on the surface of the nucleus of comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko, in the smooth terrains of the Imhotep region.…
Measurements of the Near-Nucleus Coma of Comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko with the Alice Far-Ultraviolet Spectrograph on Rosetta
Paul D. Feldman, Michael F. A'Hearn, Jean-Loup Bertaux +8
Aims. The Alice far-ultraviolet spectrograph onboard Rosetta is designed to observe emissions from various atomic and molecular species from within the coma of comet 67P/ Churyumov…
Comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko: Constraints on its origin from OSIRIS observations
H. Rickman, S. Marchi, M. F. A'Hearn +12
One of the main aims of the ESA Rosetta mission is to study the origin of the solar system by exploring comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko at close range. In this paper we discuss the…
