On 26 September 2022 the Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) spacecraft collided with Dimorphos, the moon of the near-Earth asteroid 65803 Didymos, in a full-scale demonstratio…
Secular brightness curves of 272 comets
P. Lacerda, A. Guilbert-Lepoutre, R . Kokotanekova +3
We investigate the brightening behavior of long-period comets as a function of dynamical age, defined by the original reciprocal semimajor axis, . Our goal is to test long-s…

A. Pastorello, A. Reguitti, L. Tartaglia +46
We discuss the results of the spectroscopic and photometric monitoring of the type IIn supernova (SN) 2023ldh. Survey archive data show that the SN progenitor experienced some erra…
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…
