Interaction between a Coronal Mass Ejection and Comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko

Zhenguang Huang, Gabor Toth, Tamas I. Gombosi +6

The interaction between a Coronal Mass Ejection (CME) and a comet has been observed several times by in-situ observations from the Rosetta Plasma Consortium (RPC), which is designe…

Insight into the origin of cometary ices from Rosetta/ROSINA mass spectrometer data

Martin Rubin

Here we review some of the major findings of the mass spectrometer suite ROSINA on board of ESA's Rosetta spacecraft to comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko. For more than 2 years, ROSI…

Detection of volatiles undergoing sublimation from 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko coma particles using ROSINA/COPS. II. The nude gauge

Boris Pestoni, Kathrin Altwegg, Hans Balsiger +5

In an earlier study, we reported that the ram gauge of the COmet Pressure Sensor (COPS), one of the three instruments of the Rosetta Orbiter Spectrometer for Ion and Neutral Analys…

Detection of volatiles undergoing sublimation from 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko coma particles using ROSINA/COPS. I. The ram gauge

Boris Pestoni, Kathrin Altwegg, Hans Balsiger +5

The ESA Rosetta mission has allowed an extensive in-situ study of comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko. In measurements performed by the ram gauge of the on-board COmet Pressure Sensor…

The Effect of Cosmic Rays on Cometary Nuclei: I Dose deposition

G. Gronoff, R. Maggiolo, G. Cessateur +9

Comets are small bodies thought to contain the most pristine material in the solar system. However, since their formation 4.5 Gy ago, they have been altered by different processes.…
