This, to my knowledge, is the first refereed paper to be published on Rosetta's observations of C-G (and it's free to access!):
The rotation state of 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko from approach observations with the OSIRIS cameras on Rosetta |

QUOTE (nice OSIRIS pictures) Has any of the OSIRIS made it to a public archive yet? QUOTE Rapid temperature changes and the early activity... Interesting idea, but I was reflecting the other day how the near- and post-perihelion activity has shifted from the neck region to the plains on the two lobes. --Bill EDIT And a new paper out on “Temporal morphological changes in the Imhotep region of comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko” to be published in Astronomy & Astrophysics: http://dx.doi.org/10.1051/0004-6361/201527020 authored by Olivier Groussin, et al. http://blogs.esa.int/rosetta/2015/09/18/co...-rosettas-eyes/ And an announcement that Rosetta is to be taking station at 1500Km from the nucleus in late September http://blogs.esa.int/rosetta/2015/09/18/ro...-coma-at-large/ . Mebbe they are expecting a big Kerblooie? Or just simply want the opportunity to get a series of wide coma images? -b -------------------- |
