Dust of comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko collected by Rosetta/MIDAS: classification and extension to the nanometre scale

T. Mannel, M. S. Bentley, P. D. Boakes +9

The properties of the smallest subunits of cometary dust contain information on their origin and clues to the formation of planetesimals and planets. Compared to IDPs or particles…

Flattened loose particles from numerical simulations compared to Rosetta collected particles

Jeremie Lasue, Isabelle Maroger, Robert Botet +5

Cometary dust particles are remnants of the primordial accretion of refractory material that occurred during the initial stages of the Solar System formation. Understanding their p…
