Coma revealed as an extended hard X-rays source by INTEGRAL IBIS/ISGRI [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Aims. We report the INTEGRAL/IBIS observations of the Coma Cluster in the hard X-ray/soft-ray domain. Methods. Since the Coma Cluster appears as an extended source, its global intensity and significance cannot be directly extracted with standard coded ...

X-Rays Trace the Volatile Content of Interstellar Objects

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
The nondetection of a coma surrounding 1I/‘Oumuamua, the first discovered interstellar object (ISO), has prompted a variety of hypotheses to explain its nongravitational acceleration.

On the minimum jet power of TEV BL Lac objects in the p-$\gamma$ model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
We study the requirement on the jet power in the conventional p-$\gamma$ models (photopion production and Bethe-Heitler pair production) for TeV BL Lac objects.

Modeling exospheres: analytical and numerical methods with application examples

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences
Exospheres, the tenuous gas environments surrounding planets, planetary satellites, and cometary comae, play a significant role in mediating the interactions of these astronomical bodies with their surrounding space environments.

Exploring the volatile composition of comets C/2012 F6 (Lemmon) and C/2012 S1 (ISON) with ALMA [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Comets formed in the outer and cold parts of the disk which eventually evolved into our Solar System. Assuming that the comets have undergone no major processing, studying their composition provides insight in the pristine composition of the Solar Nebula.

Coma

open access: yesNeurosurgery Clinics of North America, 1999
Comatose patients are unresponsive to all external stimuli, noxious or otherwise. Neuro-ophthalmic techniques are paramount in the neurologic assessment of comatose patients, especially with regard to brain stem localization and diagnosis. Examination of the pupils, fundi, and corneal reflexes are all helpful; however, the ocular motility examination ...

The Composition of Comets

open access: yes, 2015
This paper is the result of the International Cometary Workshop, held in Toulouse, France in April 2014, where the participants came together to assess our knowledge of comets prior to the ESA Rosetta Mission. In this paper, we look at the composition of

The Spatial Distribution Of OH And CN Radicals In The Coma Of Comet Encke [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Multiple potential parent species have been proposed to explain CN abundances in comet comae, but the parent has not been definitively identified for all comets.

Dust Properties of Comets Observed by Spitzer

open access: yesThe Planetary Science Journal, 2023
As comets journey into the inner solar system, they deliver particulates and volatile gases into their comae that reveal the most primitive materials in the solar system.

The Composition of Dust in Jupiter-Family Comets as Inferred from Infrared Spectroscopy

open access: yes, 2008
We review the composition of Jupiter-family comet dust as inferred from infrared spectroscopy. We find that Jupiter-family comets have 10 micron silicate emission features with fluxes roughly 20-25% over the dust continuum (emission strength 1.20-1.25 ...
