Cometary Diversity and Cometary Families 1.1 Introduction
Comets are classified from their orbital characteristics into two separate classes: nearly-isotropic, mainly long-period comets and ecliptic, short-period comets. Members from the former class are coming from the Oort cloud. Those of the latter class were first believed to have migrated from the Kuiper belt where they could have been accreted in situ, but recent orbital evolution simulations sh...
متن کاملRotation of Cometary Nuclei
The current understanding of cometary rotation is reviewed from both theoretical and observational perspectives. Rigid-body dynamics for principal axis and non-principal-axis rotators are described in terms of an observer’s point of view. Mechanisms for spin-state changes, corresponding timescales, and spin evolution due to outgassing torques are discussed. Different observational techniques an...
متن کاملMotion of Cometary Dust
On timescales of days to months, the motion of cometary dust is mainly affected by solar radiation pressure, which determines dust dynamics according to the particle-scattering crosssection. Within this scenario, the motion of the dust creates structures referred to as dust tails. Tail photometry, depending on the dust cross-section, allows us to infer from model runs the best available outputs...
متن کاملGreen envelopes classification: the comparative analysis of efficient factors on the thermal and energy performance of green envelopes
This paper classifies green envelopes as green roofs and green walls according to effective factors, which were derived from literature to compare the green envelopes’ thermal and energy performance in a more effective way. For this purpose, an extensive literature review was carried out by searching keywords in databases and studying related journal papers and articles. The research meth...
متن کاملCometary Rotation: an Overview
I discuss our current understanding of the spin states of cometary nuclei. Cometary spin influences the temporal and spatial patterns of outgassing from the nucleus (through diurnal and seasonal effects) and is in turn influenced by outgassing-driven torques. The current challenge to cometary astronomers is to quantify the interactions between the spin, the outgassing, and the resultant torques...
