Large-scale cryovolcanic resurfacing on Pluto
Kelsi N. Singer, Oliver L. White, Bernard Schmitt +22
The New Horizons spacecraft returned images and compositional data showing that terrains on Pluto span a variety of ages, ranging from relatively ancient, heavily cratered areas to…
Formation of Charon's Red Poles From Seasonally Cold-Trapped Volatiles
W. M. Grundy, D. P. Cruikshank, G. R. Gladstone +38
A unique feature of Pluto's large satellite Charon is its dark red northern polar cap. Similar colours on Pluto's surface have been attributed to organic macromolecules produced by…
Evolution of CO, CH, and OCS abundances relative to HO in the coma of comet 67P around perihelion from Rosetta/VIRTIS-H observations
D. Bockelée-Morvan, J. Crovisier, S. Erard +19
Infrared observations of the coma of 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko were carried out from July to September 2015, i.e., around perihelion (13 August 2015), with the high-resolution chan…
Detection of exposed HO ice on the nucleus of comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko
M. A. Barucci, G. Filacchione, S. Fornasier +42
Since the orbital insertion of the Rosetta spacecraft, comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko (67P/C-G) has been mapped by OSIRIS camera and VIRTIS spectro-imager, producing a huge quanti…
How to link the relative abundances of gas species in coma of comets to their initial chemical composition ?
Ulysse Marboeuf, Bernard Schmitt
The chemical composition of comets is frequently assumed to be directly provided by the observations of the abundances of volatile molecules in the coma. The present work aims to d…
