Origin and evolution of NiI and FeI in the coma of the interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS throughout its trajectory

Damien Hutsemékers, Jean Manfroid, Cyrielle Opitom +8

We present high-resolution UVES+VLT observations of neutral nickel and iron atoms in the coma of the interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS taken after perihelion. Metal emission was strong s…

Ejecta Evolution Following a Planned Impact into an Asteroid: The First Five Weeks

Theodore Kareta, Cristina Thomas, Jian-Yang Li +85

The impact of the DART spacecraft into Dimorphos, moon of the asteroid Didymos, changed Dimorphos' orbit substantially, largely from the ejection of material. We present results fr…

Near to Mid-Infrared Spectroscopy of (65803) Didymos as observed by JWST: Characterization Observations Supporting the Double Asteroid Redirection Test

Andrew S. Rivkin, Cristina A. Thomas, Ian Wong +17

The Didymos binary asteroid was the target of the Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) mission, which intentionally impacted Dimorphos, the smaller member of the binary system.…

Ejecta from the DART-produced active asteroid Dimorphos

Jian-Yang Li, Masatoshi Hirabayashi, Tony L. Farnham +61

Some active asteroids have been proposed to be the result of impact events. Because active asteroids are generally discovered serendipitously only after their tail formation, the p…

CO2-driven surface changes in the Hapi region on Comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko

Björn J. R. Davidsson, F. Peter Schloerb, Sonia Fornasier +24

Between 2014 December 31 and 2015 March 17, the OSIRIS cameras on Rosetta documented the growth of a 140m wide and 0.5m deep depression in the Hapi region on Comet 67P/Churyumov-Ge…

The CUBES Science Case

Chris Evans, Stefano Cristiani, Cyrielle Opitom +51

We introduce the scientific motivations for the development of the Cassegrain U-Band Efficient Spectrograph (CUBES) that is now in construction for the Very Large Telescope. The as…
