Surprisingly Enriched CO and CH4 in Halley-type Comet 13P/Olbers: Clues to Its Interstellar Heritage
The native ice composition of Halley-type Comet 13P/Olbers (hereafter 13P) was measured post-perihelion, on UT 2024 August 16 using iSHELL, the 1–5 μ m cross-dispersed, high-resolution facility spectrograph at the NASA InfraRed Telescope Facility.

The Effects of Early Collisional Evolution on Amorphous Water Ice Bodies
Conditions in the outer protoplanetary disk during solar system formation were thought to be favorable for the formation of amorphous water ice (AWI), a glassy phase of water ice.

ABSTRACT Children, as a particularly vulnerable group, are more susceptible to these mutagens due to their developing immune systems, higher physiological vulnerability, and increased exposure through behaviors like outdoor play and hand‐to‐mouth activities. This review aims to investigate the relationship between these environmental exposures, genetic

Abstract In the search for life on Mars, understanding the origin of preserved organics is critical. Expected sources include exogenous delivery, endogenous synthesis, and potentially life. Environmental processing by ultraviolet (UV) irradiation can alter these organics, obscuring hallmarks of their origin. To deconvolve these effects, we conducted an

Singularities in mass-loaded MHD flow: The cometary bow shock [PDF]
We present a one-dimensional model of the mass-loading of the solar wind by cometary ions which predicts a singularity in the mass-loaded flow at M = 2. Further, a subshock occurs when the flow speed reaches M almost-equal-to 1.15.

Comets, as remnants of the solar system’s formation, vary in volatile-refractory content. In situ comet studies, such as the Rosetta mission to 67P/Churyumov–Gerasimenko, provide detailed volatile composition insights, while ground-based studies offer ...

Driven by the need for more sustainable materials in the laminate industry, poly(glycerol citrate) was introduced as a bio‐based modifier that significantly altered the cure kinetics and structural evolution of melamine–formaldehyde resins. Correlated FTIR, DSC, TGA, and rheological analyses revealed accelerated network formation, enabling lower ...

International audienceThe European Space Agency’s Rosetta spacecraft is in close proximity of comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko for well over a year now. During this time Rosetta followed the comet from almost 3.5 AU through perihelion at 1.25 AU and away ...

Observing [O i ] emission to calculate an oxygen line ratio has been proposed as a potential proxy for direct CO _2 measurement in comets. However, the photochemistry governing [O i ] release into the coma is not well understood, and using theoretical ...

This study systematically maps polyolefin dilution dynamics using a homologous series of n‐alkanes. Integrating gravimetric sorption, subsequent controlled desorption, and oscillatory rheometry establishes a precise framework to analyze reduction in viscosity at least for polymer diluent mixtures with polymer concentration > 35% and diluent ...
