Measuring molecular abundances in comet C/2014 Q2 (Lovejoy) using the APEX telescope
M. de Val-Borro, S. N. Milam, M. A. Cordiner +4
Comet composition provides critical information on the chemical and physical processes that took place during the formation of the Solar system. We report here on millimetre spectr…
Enabling New ALMA Science with Improved Support for Time-Domain Observations
Kate D. Alexander, Edo Berger, Geoff Bower +34
While the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) is a uniquely powerful telescope, its impact in certain fields of astrophysics has been limited by observatory policie…
Thermal physics of the inner coma: ALMA studies of the methanol distribution and excitation in comet C/2012 K1 (PanSTARRS)
M. A. Cordiner, N. Biver, J. Crovisier +11
We present spatially and spectrally-resolved observations of CHOH emission from comet C/2012 K1 (PanSTARRS) using The Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) on 201…
Isotopic ratios of H, C, N, O, and S in comets C/2012 F6 (Lemmon) and C/2014 Q2 (Lovejoy)
N. Biver, R. Moreno, D. Bockelée-Morvan +15
The apparition of bright comets C/2012 F6 (Lemmon) and C/2014 Q2 (Lovejoy) in March-April 2013 and January 2015, combined with the improved observational capabilities of submillime…
Measuring the Distribution and Excitation of Cometary CH3OH Using ALMA
M. A. Cordiner, S. B. Charnley, M. J. Mumma +11
The Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) was used to obtain measurements of spatially and spectrally resolved CHOH emission from comet C/2012 K1 (PanSTARRS) on 2…
The composition of the protosolar disk and the formation conditions for comets
K. Willacy, C. Alexander, M. Ali-Dib +12
Conditions in the protosolar nebula have left their mark in the composition of cometary volatiles, thought to be some of the most pristine material in the solar system. Cometary co…
