Dust measurements in the coma of comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko inbound to the Sun

Alessandra Rotundi, +90 more
- 23 Jan 2015 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the GIADA (Grain Impact Analyser and Dust Accumulator) experiment on the European Space Agency's Rosetta spacecraft orbiting comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko was used to detect 35 outflowing grains of mass 10−10 to 10−7 kilograms.
Journal ArticleDOI

Evolution of the Dust Size Distribution of Comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko from 2.2. AU to Perihelion

Marco Fulle, +81 more
TL;DR: The Rosetta probe, orbiting Jupiter-family comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko, has been detecting individual dust particles of mass larger than 10−10 kg by means of the GIADA dust collector and the OSIRIS Wide Angle Camera and Narrow Angle Camera as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

Density and Charge of Pristine Fluffy Particles from Comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko

TL;DR: The grain impact analysis and dust accumulation (GIADA) instrument on board ESA's Rosetta mission is constraining the origin of the dust particles detected within the coma of comet 67 P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko (67P) as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

A non-LTE radiative transfer model for infrared bands in the middle atmosphere. I. Theoretical basis and application to CO2 15 μm bands

TL;DR: In this article, an improved model for non-equilibrium radiative transfer processes in the middle atmosphere (40-120 km) is presented, which is compared to previously published results for the 15 μm bands of carbon dioxide and the relative importance of various energy transfer mechanisms at work, including those involving overtone bands and isotopic species and pumping by sunlight during the day.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Dust Environment of Main-Belt Comet P/2010 R2 (La Sagra)

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a model of the dust environment of the Main Belt Comet P/2010 R2 (La Sagra) from images acquired during the period 2010 October-2011 January.
