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…
Gravitational slopes, geomorphology, and material strengths of the nucleus of comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko from OSIRIS observations
O. Groussin, L. Jorda, A. -T. Auger +49
We study the link between gravitational slopes and the surface morphology on the nucleus of comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko and provide constraints on the mechanical properties of…
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…
Spectrophotometric properties of the nucleus of comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko from the OSIRIS instrument onboard the ROSETTA spacecraft
S. Fornasier, P. H. Hasselmann, M. A. Barucci +51
The Rosetta mission of the European Space Agency has been orbiting the comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko (67P) since August 2014 and is now in its escort phase. A large complement of…
