Survival of water ice in Jupiter Trojans

Aurélie Guilbert-Lepoutre

Jupiter Trojans appear to be a key population of small bodies to study and test the models of the Solar System formation and evolution. Because understanding the evolution of Troja…

The Sources of HCN and CH3OH and the Rotational Temperature in Comet 103P/Hartley 2 from Time-Resolved Millimeter Spectroscopy

Michal Drahus, David Jewitt, Aurelie Guilbert-Lepoutre +2

One of the least understood properties of comets is the compositional structure of their nuclei, which can either be homogeneous or heterogeneous. The nucleus structure can be conv…

Limits to Ice on Asteroids (24) Themis and (65) Cybele

D. Jewitt, A. Guilbert-Lepoutre

We present optical spectra of (24) Themis and (65) Cybele, two large main-belt asteroids on which exposed water ice has recently been reported. No emission lines, expected from res…

Thermal Shadows and Compositional Structure in Comet Nuclei

A. Guilbert-Lepoutre, D. Jewitt

We use a fully 3-dimensional thermal evolution model to examine the effects of a non-uniform surface albedo on the subsurface thermal structure of comets. Surface albedo markings c…

Rotation State of Comet 103P/Hartley 2 from Radio Spectroscopy at 1 mm

Michal Drahus, David Jewitt, Aurelie Guilbert-Lepoutre +6

The nuclei of active comets emit molecules anisotropically from discrete vents. As the nucleus rotates, we expect to observe periodic variability in the molecular emission line pro…
