Organic Compounds on the Nucleus of Comet 67/Churyumov-Gerasimenko as Revealed by COSAC Mass Spectrometry

Goesmann, Fred Rosenbauer, Helmut Bredehoeft, Jan Hendrik

The evolved gas analyzer COmetary SAmplingand Composition experiment (COSAC) aboardthe Philae Lander of ESA's Rosetta mission was designedto make unique in situ chemical analyses ofnucleus material from comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko, with an emphasis on organic molecules.Twenty-five minutes after Philae's initial touchdown,the COSAC mass...
