Refractory and semi-volatile organics at the surface of comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko: insights from the VIRTIS/Rosetta imaging spectrometer
The VIRTIS (Visible, Infrared and Thermal Imaging Spectrometer) instrument aboard the Rosetta spacecraft has performed extensive spectral mapping of the surface of comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko in the range 0.3-5μm. The reflectance spectra collected across the surface display a low refle...
