The Search for MeV Electrons 2-45 AU from the Sun with the Alice Instrument Microchannel Plate Detector Aboard New Horizons
B. A. Keeney, M. Versteeg, J. Wm. Parker +14
The Alice UV spectrograph aboard NASA's New Horizons mission is sensitive to MeV electrons that penetrate the instrument's thin aluminum housing and interact with its microchannel…
Initial results from the New Horizons exploration of 2014 MU69, a small Kuiper Belt Object
S. A. Stern, H. A. Weaver, J. R. Spencer +202
The Kuiper Belt is a distant region of the Solar System. On 1 January 2019, the New Horizons spacecraft flew close to (486958) 2014 MU69, a Cold Classical Kuiper Belt Object, a cla…
Upper Limits for Emissions in the Coma of Comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko Near Perihelion as Measured by Rosetta's Alice Far-Ultraviolet Spectrograph
B. A. Keeney, S. A. Stern, R. J. Vervack +13
The Alice far-UV imaging spectrograph (700-2050 A) acquired over 70,000 spectral images during Rosetta's 2-year escort mission, including over 20,000 in the months surrounding peri…
Stellar Occultation by Comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko Observed with Rosetta's Alice Far-Ultraviolet Spectrograph
B. A. Keeney, S. A. Stern, P. D. Feldman +13
Following our previous detection of ubiquitous H2O and O2 absorption against the far-UV continuum of stars located near the nucleus of Comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko, we present a…
The Pluto system: Initial results from its exploration by New Horizons
S. A. Stern, F. Bagenal, K. Ennico +148
The Pluto system was recently explored by NASA's New Horizons spacecraft, making closest approach on 14 July 2015. Pluto's surface displays diverse landforms, terrain ages, albedos…
MeV electrons detected by the Alice UV spectrograph during the New Horizons flyby of Jupiter
A. J. Steffl, A. B. Shinn, G. R. Gladstone +5
In early 2007, the New Horizons spacecraft flew through the Jovian magnetosphere on the dusk side. Here, we present results from a novel means of detecting energetic electrons alon…
