Monitoring of the activity and composition of comets 41P/Tuttle-Giacobini-Kresak and 45P/Honda-Mrkos-Pajdusakova
Y. Moulane, E. Jehin, C. Opitom +5
We report on photometry and imaging of the Jupiter Family Comets 41P/Tuttle-Giacobini-Kresak and 45P/Honda-Mrkos-Pajdusakova with the TRAPPIST-North telescope. We observed 41P on 3…
Development in Astronomy and Space Science in Africa
Mirjana Pović, Michael Backes, Paul Baki +20
The development of astronomy and space science in Africa has grown significantly over the past few years. These advancements make the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals m…
Discovery of three new transiting hot Jupiters: WASP-161 b, WASP-163 b and WASP-170 b
K. Barkaoui, A. Burdanov, C. Hellier +28
We present the discovery by the WASP-South transit survey of three new transiting hot Jupiters, WASP-161 b, WASP-163 b and WASP-170 b. Follow-up radial velocities obtained with the…
SPECULOOS: a network of robotic telescopes to hunt for terrestrial planets around the nearest ultracool dwarfs
Laetitia Delrez, Michael Gillon, Didier Queloz +18
We present here SPECULOOS, a new exoplanet transit search based on a network of 1m-class robotic telescopes targeting the 1200 ultracool (spectral type M7 and later) dwarfs b…
Reactive collision of electrons with CO in cometary coma
Y. Moulane, J. Zs. Mezei, V. Laporta +3
In order to improve our understanding of the kinetics of the cometary coma, theoretical studies of the major reactive collisions in these environments are needed. Deep in the colli…
Dust modelling and a dynamical study of comet 41P/Tuttle-Giacobini-Kresak during its 2017 perihelion passage
F. J. Pozuelos, E. Jehin, Y. Moulane +4
Thanks to the Rosetta mission, our understanding of comets has greatly improved. A very good opportunity to apply this knowledge appeared in early 2017 with the appearance of the J…
