Gaseous atomic nickel in the coma of interstellar comet 2I/Borisov

Piotr Guzik, Michał Drahus

On 31 August 2019, an interstellar comet was discovered as it passed through the Solar System (2I/Borisov). Based on initial imaging observations, 2I/Borisov appeared to be complet…

Initial characterization of interstellar comet 2I/Borisov

Piotr Guzik, Michał Drahus, Krzysztof Rusek +3

Interstellar comets penetrating through the Solar System had been anticipated for decades. The discovery of asteroidal-looking 'Oumuamua was thus a huge surprise and a puzzle. Furt…

The Excited Spin State of 1I/2017 U1 `Oumuamua

Michael J. S. Belton, Olivier R. Hainaut, Karen J. Meech +15

We show that `Oumuamua's excited spin could be in a high energy LAM state, which implies that its shape could be far from the highly elongated shape found in previous studies. CLEA…

Tumbling motion of 1I/'Oumuamua reveals body's violent past

Michal Drahus, Piotr Guzik, Waclaw Waniak +3

Models of the Solar System evolution show that almost all the primitive material leftover from the formation of the planets was ejected to the interstellar space as a result of dyn…

Fast Rotation and Trailing Fragments of the Active Asteroid P/2012 F5 (Gibbs)

Michal Drahus, Waclaw Waniak, Shriharsh Tendulkar +3

While having a comet-like appearance, P/2012 F5 (Gibbs) has an orbit native to the Main Asteroid Belt, and physically is a km-sized asteroid which recently (mid 2011) experienced a…

Uncorrelated Volatile Behavior During the 2011 Apparition of Comet C/2009 P1 Garradd

Lori M. Feaga, Michael F. AHearn, Tony L. Farnham +7

The High Resolution Instrument Infrared Spectrometer (HRI-IR) onboard the Deep Impact Flyby spacecraft detected H2O, CO2, and CO in the coma of the dynamically young Oort cloud com…
