Considerations on the process of target selection for the Comet Interceptor mission
C. Snodgrass, E. Mazzotta Epifani, C. Tubiana +27
Comet Interceptor is an ESA science mission with payload contributions from ESA Member States and with an international participation by JAXA. It is the first mission that is being…
A Potential Aid in the Target Selection for the Comet Interceptor Mission
Erik Vigren, Anders I. Eriksson, Niklas J. T. Edberg +1
The upcoming Comet Interceptor mission involves a parking phase around the Sun-Earth L2 point before transferring to intercept the orbit of a long period comet, interstellar object…
Re-Analysis of the Cassini RPWS/LP Data in Titan's Ionosphere: 2. Statistics on 57 Flybys
A. Chatain, J. -E. Wahlund, O. Shebanits +5
The ionosphere of Titan hosts a complex ion chemistry leading to the formation of organic dust below 1200 km. Current models cannot fully explain the observed electron temperature…
Re-Analysis of the Cassini RPWS/LP Data in Titan's Ionosphere: 1. Detection of Several Electron Populations
A. Chatain, J. -E. Wahlund, O. Shebanits +5
Current models of Titan ionosphere have difficulties in explaining the observed electron density and/or temperature. In order to get new insights, we re-analyzed the data taken in…
The evolution of the electron number density in the coma of comet 67P at the location of Rosetta from 2015 November through 2016 March
Erik Vigren, Niklas J. T. Edberg, Anders I. Eriksson +6
A comet ionospheric model assuming the plasma to move radially outward with the same bulk speed as the neutral gas and not being subject to severe reduction through dissociative re…
Ultraviolet Observations of Coronal Mass Ejection Impact on Comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko by Rosetta Alice
John W. Noonan, S. Alan Stern, Paul D. Feldman +13
The Alice ultraviolet spectrograph on the European Space Agency Rosetta spacecraft observed comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko in its orbit around the Sun for just over two years. Ali…
Rosetta photoelectron emission and solar ultraviolet flux at comet 67P
Fredrik L. Johansson, E. Odelstad, J. J. P. Paulsson +10
The Langmuir Probe instrument on Rosetta monitored the photoelectron emission cur- rent of the probes during the Rosetta mission at comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko, in essence acti…
Carbon chain anions and the growth of complex organic molecules in Titan's ionosphere
R. T. Desai, A. J. Coates, A. Wellbrock +12
Cassini discovered a plethora of neutral and ionised molecules in Titan's ionosphere including, surprisingly, anions and negatively charged molecules extending up to 13,800 u/q. In…
The 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko observation campaign in support of the Rosetta mission
C. Snodgrass, M. F. A'Hearn, F. Aceituno +112
We present a summary of the campaign of remote observations that supported the European Space Agency's Rosetta mission. Telescopes across the globe (and in space) followed comet 67…
Titan interaction with the supersonic solar wind
C. Bertucci, D. C. Hamilton, W. S. Kurth +5
After 9 years in the Saturn system, the Cassini spacecraft finally observed Titan in the supersonic solar wind. These unique observations reveal that Titan interaction with the sol…
