资源简介:
We observed the new Long Period Comet C/2024 E1 (Wierzchos), inbound at 7 au from the Sun, using the NIRSpec integral field unit on JWST. The spectrum shows absorption features due to water ice in the coma and evidence for CO2 driven activity, with a production rate of 𝑄(𝐶𝑂2) = 2.546 ± 0.019 × 10^25 molecules s−1, and no emission features of water or CO. The latter is surprising, given that CO is more volatile than CO2, and suggests that this comet may have lost its near-surface CO during its early evolution, before implantation in the Oort cloud.
