Jupiter Science Enabled by ESA's Jupiter Icy Moons Explorer
Leigh N. Fletcher, Thibault Cavalié, Davide Grassi +47
ESA's Jupiter Icy Moons Explorer (JUICE) will provide a detailed investigation of the Jovian system in the 2030s, combining a suite of state-of-the-art instruments with an orbital…
Molecular composition of comet 46P/Wirtanen from millimetre-wave spectroscopy
N. Biver, D. Bockelée-Morvan, J. Boissier +11
We present the results of a molecular survey of comet 46P/Wirtanen undertaken with the IRAM 30-m and NOEMA radio telescopes in December 2018. Observations at IRAM 30-m during the 1…
The extraordinary composition of the "blue comet" C/2016 R2 (PanSTARRS)
N. Biver, D. Bockelée-Morvan, G. Paubert +9
We present a multi-wavelength study of comet C/2016 R2 (PanSTARRS). This comet was observed on 23-24 January 2018 with the IRAM 30m telescope, and in January to March 2018 with the…
The thermal emission of Centaurs and Trans-Neptunian objects at millimeter wavelengths from ALMA observations
E. Lellouch, R. Moreno, T. Müller +9
The sensitivity of ALMA makes it possible to detect thermal mm/submm emission from small/distant Solar System bodies at the sub-mJy level. Measured fluxes are primarily sensitive t…
Scientific rationale for Uranus and Neptune in situ explorations
O. Mousis, D. H. Atkinson, T. Cavalié +53
The ice giants Uranus and Neptune are the least understood class of planets in our solar system but the most frequently observed type of exoplanets. Presumed to have a small rocky…
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…
Ethyl alcohol and sugar in comet C/2014Q2 (Lovejoy)
Nicolas Biver, Dominique Bockelée-Morvan, Raphaël Moreno +7
The presence of numerous complex organic molecules (COMs; defined as those containing six or more atoms) around protostars shows that star formation is accompanied by an increase o…
Next Generation Very Large Array Memo No. 6, Science Working Group 1: The Cradle of Life
Andrea Isella, Charles L. H. Hull, Arielle Moullet +33
This paper discusses compelling science cases for a future long-baseline interferometer operating at millimeter and centimeter wavelengths, like the proposed Next Generation Vary L…
Comparison of absolute gain photometric calibration between Planck/HFI and Herschel/SPIRE at 545 and 857 GHz
B. Bertincourt, G. Lagache, B. Schulz +14
We compare the absolute gain photometric calibration of the Planck/HFI and Herschel/SPIRE instruments on diffuse emission. The absolute calibration of HFI and SPIRE each relies on…
Complex organic molecules in comets C/2012 F6 (Lemmon) and C/2013 R1 (Lovejoy): detection of ethylene glycol and formamide
N. Biver, D. Bockelée-Morvan, V. Debout +9
A spectral survey in the 1 mm wavelength range was undertaken in the long-period comets C/2012 F6 (Lemmon) and C/2013 R1 (Lovejoy) using the 30 m telescope of the Institut de radio…
Scientific rationale of Saturn's in situ exploration
O. Mousis, L. N. Fletcher, J. -P. Lebreton +47
Remote sensing observations meet some limitations when used to study the bulk atmospheric composition of the giant planets of our solar system. A remarkable example of the superior…
Herschel/PACS spectroscopy of trace gases of the stratosphere of Titan
Miriam Rengel, Hideo Sagawa, Paul Hartogh +7
Aims: We investigate the composition of Titan's stratosphere from new medium-resolution far-infrared observations performed with the full range of Herschel's Photodetector Array Ca…
First submillimeter observation of CO in the stratosphere of Uranus
T. Cavalié, R. Moreno, E. Lellouch +8
Context. Carbon monoxide (CO) has been detected in all Giant Planets and its origin is both internal and external in Jupiter and Neptune. Despite its first detection in Uranus a de…
Planck 2013 results. VIII. HFI photometric calibration and mapmaking
Planck Collaboration, P. A. R. Ade, N. Aghanim +223
This paper describes the processing applied to the HFI cleaned time-ordered data to produce photometrically calibrated maps. HFI observes the sky over a broad range of frequencies,…
The D/H ratio in the atmospheres of Uranus and Neptune from Herschel PACS observations
H. Feuchtgruber, E. Lellouch, G. Orton +9
Herschel-PACS measurements of the rotational R(0) and R(1) HD lines in the atmospheres of Uranus and Neptune are analyzed in order to derive a D/H ratio with improved precision for…
Wind mapping in Venus' upper mesosphere with the IRAM-Plateau de Bure interferometer
A. Moullet, E. Lellouch, R. Moreno +2
The dynamics of the upper mesosphere of Venus (~85-115 km) have been characterized as a combination of a retrograde superrotating zonal wind (RSZ) with a subsolar-to-antisolar flow…
