First JWST spectrum of distant activity in Long Period Comet C/2024 E1 (Wierzchos)

Colin Snodgrass, Carrie E. Holt, Michael S. P. Kelley +10

We observed the new Long Period Comet C/2024 E1 (Wierzchos), inbound at 7 au from the Sun, using the NIRSpec integral field unit on JWST. The spectrum shows absorption features due…
