CO and CO2 Productions Rates of Comets Observed by NEOWISE within Year 1 of the Reactivated Mission
The Planetary Science Journal, 2023 We report on the observed fluxes of the comets detected by NEOWISE during the first year of operations after the spacecraft’s reactivation. The sample included 57 comets.

Organic Matter in Cometary Environments
Life, 2021 Comets contain primitive material leftover from the formation of the Solar System, making studies of their composition important for understanding the formation of volatile material in the early Solar System.

Possible Transfer of Life by Earth-Grazing Objects to Exoplanetary Systems
Life, 2020 Recently, a 30-cm object was discovered to graze the Earth’s atmosphere and shift into a Jupiter-crossing orbit. We use the related survey parameters to calibrate the total number of such objects.

General Relativistic Study of Motion of Comets Particles Elliptical Gravitational Field [PDF]
Physics AccessComets are small bodies consisting of aggregates of ice mixed with rock and dust. They are usually influenced by galactic forces and stellar encounters, and may have contributed to the formation of ice giants and transport gases across the solar system ...

The Astrophysical Formation of Asymmetric Molecules and the Emergence of a Chiral Bias
Life, 2019 The biomolecular homochirality in living organisms has been investigated for decades, but its origin remains poorly understood. It has been shown that circular polarized light (CPL) and other energy sources are capable of inducing small enantiomeric ...

CO2: A Small Ubiquitous Molecule With a Lot of Astrochemical Debate Attached
Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2020 Water, carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide are the most abundant molecules in the condensed phase of interstellar dust grains. Water is formed by hydrogenation of oxygen species adsorbed on the surface of dust grains, while carbon monoxide is formed by ...
