Dust environment of Comet Hyakutake 1996B2
Narrow-band wide-field CCD images of the dust tail of Comet Hyakutake 1996B2 are analysed by means of the inverse dust tail model (Fulle 1989). The dust tail fits allow us to estimate the ejection velocity, mass loss rate and size distribution of the dust grains ejected during the months of March and April, 1996 (when the heliocentric distance was decreasing from 1.5 AU to 0.5 AU), in the size ...
متن کاملComet Dust from Airborne Leonid Storm Observations
For the past five years, rare Leonid meteor storms offered unique access to cometary dust by spectacular manifestations of recently ejected dust grains, which could be observed by exceptional meteor observing techniques. The final storms, those of November 19, 2002, measured the dust distribution in a comet dust trail far from the position of the comet itself. The measured spatial and particle ...
متن کاملThe dust properties of a short period comet: comet P/Borrelly
We have calculated the thermal emission spectrum of the dust of comet P/Borrelly (1994l), a short-period comet (Jupiter family), from 3 μm to 14 μm as well as the 10 μm silicate feature in terms of the comet dust model as porous aggregates of interstellar grains. Compared to comet P/Halley dust, the dust grains of P/Borrelly appear to be relatively more processed (more carbonized), less fluffy,...
متن کاملModeling of Dust Halo Formation Following Comet Outbursts Preliminary Results
Evolution of gas and dust distributions following a spatially and temporally localized comet outburst was calculated using a hybrid kinetic hydrodynamic method. It was found that a comet outburst resulted in significantly increased dust terminal velocities. As these higher terminal velocity values result in larger apex distances, therefore the outburst generates distinct dust envelopes in front...
متن کاملA comet dust model for the β Pictoris disk
The 10μm silicate emission feature and the continuum emission from near infrared to millimeter of the dust in the disk of β Pictoris may be derived by assuming that the dust is continually replenished by comets orbiting close to the star. The basic, initial dust shed by the comets is taken to be the fluffy aggregates of interstellar silicate core-organic refractory mantle dust grains (with an a...
