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 Organic molecules on comets: Philae's first results from Churi prove surprising Date: July 30, 2015 Source: CNRS Summary: Organic molecules never previously observed in comets, a relatively varied structure on the surface but a fairly homogeneous interior, organic compounds forming agglomerates rather than being dispersed in the ice: these are just some of first results provided by Philae on the surface of comet Churi. These in situ findings, which contain a wealth of completely new information, reveal several differences in comparison with previous observations of comets and current models... http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2015/...50730172518.htm Is it from this work or from later data? There will no doubt be fascinating geochemistry based on temperatures and pressures _over the time period involved_ that would be impossible to duplicate in the lab. --Bill -------------------- |

But the Rosina material is another teams data and so I have to wait for the meetings to get an update. The Zoo is large and the amount of compounds which can be still in the data and not yet identified might be large. I liked the groups made up by Kathrin Altwegg. The large ones and the small and flying ones an so on. I hope for a nice paper from ROSINA soon. |
