Organic Matter in Cometary Environments

open access: yesLife, 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

open access: yesLife, 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.

Formation of Comets

open access: yesUniverse, 2022
Questions regarding how primordial or pristine the comets of the solar system are have been an ongoing controversy. In this review, we describe comets’ physical evolution from dust and ice grains in the solar nebula to the contemporary small bodies in ...

Impacts drive lunar rockfalls over billions of years

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
In this study, the authors present a global map of rockfalls on the lunar surface and determine impact events as short- and long-term driver for rockfall events.

Activity of 50 Long-Period Comets Beyond 5.2 AU [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Remote investigations of the ancient solar system matter has been traditionally carried out through the observations of long-period (LP) comets that are less affected by solar irradiation than the short-period counterparts orbiting much closer to the Sun.

General Relativistic Study of Motion of Comets Particles Elliptical Gravitational Field [PDF]

open access: yesPhysics Access
Comets 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 burden of Galileo's controversy: the Jesuit revisiting of the Aristotelian cosmos in Collegio Romano (1618-1677)

open access: yesGalilæana, 2023
While studying the controversy between Galileo and the Jesuits over the comets of 1618, historians tend to focus on the works that led to the publication of Il Saggiatore in 1623.

Where do long-period comets come from? 26 comets from the non-gravitational Oort spike [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The apparent source region (or regions) of long-period comets as well as the definition of the dynamically new comet are still open questions.The aim of this investigation is to look for the apparent source of selected long period comets and to refine ...
