Giant ripples on comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko sculpted by sunset thermal wind
, 2017 Explaining the unexpected presence of dune-like patterns at the surface of the comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko requires conceptual and quantitative advances in the understanding of surface and outgassing processes. We show here that vapor flow emitted by
