Evidence of ammonium salts in comet 67P as explanation for the nitrogen depletion in cometary comae
K. Altwegg, H. Balsiger, J. -J. Berthelier +14
Cometary comae are generally depleted in nitrogen. The main carriers for volatile nitrogen in comets are NH3 and HCN. It is known that ammonia readily combines with many acids like…
Comet C/2017 S3 (PanSTARRS): Outbursts and Disintegration
M. R. Combi, T. Mäkinen, J. -L. Bertaux +3
The Solar Wind ANisotropies (SWAN) all-sky hydrogen Lyman-alpha camera on the SOlar and Heliospheric Observer (SOHO) satellite observed the hydrogen coma of comet C/2017 S3 (PanSTA…
The Surface Distributions of the Production of the Major Volatile Species, H2O, CO2, CO and O2, from the Nucleus of Comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko throughout the Rosetta Mission as Measured by the ROSINA Double Focusing Mass Spectrometer
Michael Combi, Yinsi Shou, Nicolas Fougere +12
The Rosetta Orbiter Spectrometer for Ion and Neutral Analysis (ROSINA) suite of instruments operated throughout the over two years of the Rosetta mission operations in the vicinity…
Elemental and molecular abundances in comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko
Martin Rubin, Kathrin Altwegg, Hans Balsiger +18
Comets are considered to be some of the most pristine and unprocessed solar system objects accessible to in-situ exploration. Investigating their molecular and elemental compositio…
A comparison between the two lobes of comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko based on D/H ratios in H2O measured with the Rosetta/ROSINA DFMS
Isaac R. H. G. Schroeder, Kathrin Altwegg, Hans Balsiger +13
The nucleus of the Jupiter-family comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko was discovered to be bi-lobate in shape when the European Space Agency spacecraft Rosetta first approached it in J…
X-rays Studies of the Solar System
Bradford Snios, William R. Dunn, Carey M. Lisse +23
X-ray observatories contribute fundamental advances in Solar System studies by probing Sun-object interactions, developing planet and satellite surface composition maps, probing gl…
