The ESA/Rosetta mission accompanied the Jupiter Family Comet 67P/Churyumov-
Gerasimenko and provided a huge amount of data which are providing important results …

The dust ejected by cometary nuclei encodes valuable information on the formation and
evolution of the early Solar System. Multiple short-period comets have been studied in situ …

Context. An assessment of the dust environment of a comet is needed for data analysis and
planning spacecraft missions, such as ESA's Comet Interceptor (CI) mission. The distinctive …

ABSTRACT The ESA mission Comet Interceptor will target an Oort or interstellar comet
during its first approach to the Sun. Meanwhile, the Vera Rubin LSST Survey will observe …

The dynamics of irregularly shaped particles subjected to the combined effect of gas drag
and radiative forces and torques in a cometary environment is investigated. The equations of …

A numerical model of cometary dust environments is used to gain a deeper understanding of
the relationship between the brightness (A f ρ) and the dust particle size distribution in the …

Abstract A Main Belt Comet exploration mission has been proposed to perform rendezvous
with a Main Belt Comet in the future, and the probe will orbit the comet and carry on …

In situ measurements of individual dust grain parameters in the immediate vicinity of a
cometary nucleus are being carried by the Rosetta spacecraft at comet 67P/Churyumov …

In this paper, we consider the motion of a solid spherical particle in a spherically expanding
gas flow as an elementary model of the gas-dust atmosphere of a comet. Based on the …

Abstract Comet Interceptor (Comet-I), to be launched in 2029 as a piggyback to ESA's ARIEL
mission, is aimed to perform the first fly-by of a pristine long-period comet. The mission will …
