A JWST Study of Stardust. I. Infrared Spectroscopy of Comet 81P/Wild 2 and Overall Composition
Nathan X. Roth, Stefanie N. Milam, Diane H. Wooden +11
We report observations of comet 81P/Wild 2, target of the Stardust sample return mission, on UT 2023 March 20 and 24 at a heliocentric distance () of 1.85 au using the NIRSpec…
Low NH/HO ratio in comet C/2020 F3 (NEOWISE) at 0.7 au from the Sun
Maria N. Drozdovskaya, Dominique Bockelée-Morvan, Jacques Crovisier +7
A lower-than-solar elemental nitrogen content has been demonstrated for several comets, including 1P/Halley and 67P/C-G with independent in situ measurements of volatile and refrac…
Measuring molecular abundances in comet C/2014 Q2 (Lovejoy) using the APEX telescope
M. de Val-Borro, S. N. Milam, M. A. Cordiner +4
Comet composition provides critical information on the chemical and physical processes that took place during the formation of the Solar system. We report here on millimetre spectr…
Mapping Vinyl Cyanide and Other Nitriles in Titan's Atmosphere Using ALMA
J. C. -Y. Lai, M. A. Cordiner, C. A. Nixon +9
Vinyl cyanide (CHCN) is theorized to form in Titan's atmosphere via high-altitude photochemistry and is of interest regarding the astrobiology of cold planetary surfaces du…
Thermal physics of the inner coma: ALMA studies of the methanol distribution and excitation in comet C/2012 K1 (PanSTARRS)
M. A. Cordiner, N. Biver, J. Crovisier +11
We present spatially and spectrally-resolved observations of CHOH emission from comet C/2012 K1 (PanSTARRS) using The Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) on 201…
