Characterization of Thermal Infrared Dust Emission and Refinements to the Nucleus Properties of Centaur 29P/Schwassmann-Wachmann 1
Charles A. Schambeau, Yanga R. Fernandez, Nalin H. Samarasinha +4
We present analyses of Spitzer observations of 29P/Schwassmann-Wachmann 1 using 16 m IRS "blue" peak-up (PU) and 24 m and 70 m MIPS images obtained on UT 2003 November 23…
Sublimation as an effective mechanism for flattened lobes of (486958) Arrokoth
Yuhui Zhao, Ladislav Rezac, Yuri Skorov +3
The New Horizons spacecraft's flyby of Kuiper Belt Object (KBO) (486958) Arrokoth revealed a bilobed shape with highly flattened lobes both aligned to its equatorial plane, and a r…
Analysis of HST WFPC2 Observations of Centaur 29P/Schwassmann-Wachmann 1 while in Outburst to Place Constraints on the Nucleus' Rotation State
Charles Schambeau, Yanga Fernandez, Nalin Samarasinha +2
We present analysis of {\it Hubble Space Telescope} (HST) observations of Centaur 29P/Schwassmann-Wachmann 1 (SW1) while in outburst to characterize the outburst coma and place con…
Further investigation of changes in cometary rotation
Beatrice E. A. Mueller, Nalin H. Samarasinha
Samarasinha & Mueller (2013) related changes of cometary rotation to other physical parameters for four Jupiter family comets defining a parameter , which is approximately const…
The Sublimative Torques of Jupiter Family Comets and Mass Wasting Events on Their Nuclei
Jordan K. Steckloff, Nalin H. Samarasinha
Sublimative outgassing of comets produces torques that alter the rotation state of their nuclei. Recently, parameterized sublimative torque models have been developed to study rota…
The Unusual Apparition of Comet 252P/2000 G1 (LINEAR) and Comparison with Comet P/2016 BA14 (PanSTARRS)
Jian-Yang Li, Michael S. P. Kelley, Nalin H. Samarasinha +7
We imaged Comet 252P/2000 G1 (LINEAR) (hereafter 252P) with the Hubble Space Telescope and both 252P and P/2016 BA (PanSTARRS) (hereafter BA) with the Discovery Chann…
