Comparison of a pebbles-based model with the observed evolution of the water and carbon dioxide outgassing of comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko
The Rosetta mission escorted comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko for approximately two
years including the perihelion passage (1.24 au, 2015 August), allowing us to monitor the …

Varying water activity and momentum transfer on comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko from its non-gravitational forces and torques
Aims. We investigate the ability of a simultaneous fitting of comet 67P/Churyumov-
Gerasimenko's non-gravitational forces, torques, and total water-outgassing rate, as …

Dust Emission and Dynamics
J Agarwal, Y Kim, MSP Kelley, R Marschall - arXiv preprint arXiv …, 2023 - arxiv.org
When viewed from Earth, most of what we observe of a comet is dust. The influence of solar
radiation pressure on the trajectories of dust particles depends on their cross-section to …
