SuperWASP observations of the 2007 outburst of Comet 17P/Holmes
We present wide-field imaging of the 2007 outburst of Comet 17P/Holmes obtained serendipitously by SuperWASP-North on 17 nights over a 42-night period beginning on the night (2007 October 22–23) immediately prior to the outburst. Photometry of 17P’s unresolved coma in SuperWASP data taken on the first night of the outburst is consistent with exponential brightening, suggesting that the rapid in...
متن کاملOptical analysis of an activity outburst in comet C/1995 O1 (Hale-Bopp) and its connection to an X-ray outburst
We present a detailed analysis of an outburst of activity in Comet C/1995 O1 (Hale-Bopp), which coincided in time with an increase in X-ray luminosity of the comet. The outburst produced a cloud of material expanding through the coma and is visible in images obtained with a continuum filter and a CN filter. The evolution of its intensity in both the dust and the CN could be well fitted by a Max...
متن کاملNicmos/hst Post-perihelion Images of Comet Hale–bopp in Outburst
Near-infrared images of comet Hale–Bopp (C/1995 O1) were obtained from NICMOS/HST on UT August 27–28, 1997, when the comet emerged from the 50 degree solar elongation limit at 2.99 AU from Earth. Diffraction-limited images were obtained with camera 2 filters centered at 1.87, 1.90, 2.04 and 2.22 μm with ∼0.2′′ resolution (0.076′′/pixel; 165 km/pixel). Over the 1.7hour baseline of observation, a...
متن کاملPeculiar Near-Nucleus Outgassing of Comet 17P/Holmes During Its 2007 Outburst
We present high angular resolution Submillimeter Array observations of the outbursting Jupiter family comet 17P/Holmes on 2007 October 26–29, achieving a spatial resolution of 2.5, or∼3000 km at the comet distance. The observations resulted in detections of the rotational lines CO 3–2, HCN 4–3, HCN 4–3, CS 7–6, H2CO 31,2-21,1, H2S 22,0–21,1, and multiple CH3OH lines, along with the associated d...
متن کاملWater in the Near IR spectrum of Comet 8P/Tuttle
High resolution spectra of Comet 8P/Tuttle were obtained in the frequency range 3440.6–3462.6 cm on 3 January 2008 UT using CGS4 with echelle grating on UKIRT. In addition to recording strong solar pumped fluorescent (SPF) lines of H2O, the long integration time (152 minutes on target) enabled a number of weaker H2O features to be assigned, most of which had not previously identified in cometar...
