Evidence for the formation of comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko through gravitational collapse of a bound clump of pebbles
The processes that led to the formation of the planetary bodies in the Solar system are still
not fully understood. Using the results obtained with the comprehensive suite of instruments …

The thermal, mechanical, structural, and dielectric properties of cometary nuclei after Rosetta
The physical properties of cometary nuclei observed today relate to their complex history
and help to constrain their formation and evolution. In this article, we review some of the …

The dynamical origins of the dark comets and a proposed evolutionary track
So-called 'dark comets' are small, morphologically inactive near-Earth objects (NEOs) that
exhibit nongravitational accelerations inconsistent with radiative effects. These objects …
