Spitzer Space Telescope observations of bilobate comet 8P/Tuttle

O. Groussin, P. L. Lamy, M. S. P. Kelley +4

Comet 8P/Tuttle is a Nearly Isotropic Comet (NIC), whose physical properties are poorly known and could be different from those of Ecliptic Comets (EC) owing to their different ori…

Diurnal variation of dust and gas production in comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko at the inbound equinox as seen by OSIRIS and VIRTIS-M on board Rosetta

C. Tubiana, G. Rinaldi, C. Güttler +53

On 27 Apr 2015, when 67P/C-G was at 1.76 au from the Sun and moving towards perihelion, the OSIRIS and VIRTIS-M instruments on Rosetta observed the evolving dust and gas coma durin…

Surface evolution of the Anhur region on comet 67P from high-resolution OSIRIS images

S. Fornasier, C. Feller, P. H. Hasselmann +34

The southern hemisphere of comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko (67P) became observable by the Rosetta mission in March 2015, a few months before cometary southern vernal equinox. The A…

Linking surface morphology, composition, and activity on the nucleus of 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko

S. Fornasier, V. H. Hoang, P. H. Hasselmann +37

The Rosetta space probe accompanied comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko for more than two years, obtaining an unprecedented amount of unique data of the comet nucleus and inner coma. T…

Tensile Strength of 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko Nucleus Material from Overhangs

N. Attree, O. Groussin, L. Jorda +52

We directly measure twenty overhanging cliffs on the surface of comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko extracted from the latest shape model and estimate the minimum tensile strengths nee…

Seasonal Mass Transfer on the Nucleus of Comet 67P/Chuyumov-Gerasimenko

H. U. Keller, S. Mottola, S. F. Hviid +47

We collect observational evidence that supports the scheme of mass transfer on the nucleus of comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko. The obliquity of the rotation axis of 67P causes stro…
