论文摘要

我们介绍了2019年1月1日MU69/Gladstone等人的Arrokoth Flyby,我们提出了新的,特定于ICE的新视野/Alice Upper Gas Coma生产限制。 (2021)并使用它们来预测大多数高volatige(Co,n $ _2 $,ch $ _4 $)在KBO和Oort Cloud Comets中的ICES。这些预测对Oort云的研究具有许多重要的含义,包括:确定富含高精度的彗星,因为将第一个物体放入Oort云中;来自高浮力富含浓度的co/n $ _2 $/ch $ _4 $丰度比的测量。以及对早期(<20 Myr)行星聚集驱动的人群统计限制与后期(> 50 Myr)行星迁移驱动物体驱动物体驱动到Oort云。他们暗示,例如C/2017K2(Jewitt etal。2017; Hui etal。2018)的超级活跃彗星的现象应该很少见,因此不是所有彗星的一般特征。他们还建议,星际对象2i/borisov并非源于富含CO的行星系统(Bodewits等,2020),而是可以在其出生系统历史的早期就被弹出到星际轨迹上。

We present new, ice species-specific New Horizons/Alice upper gas coma production limits from the 01 Jan 2019 MU69/Arrokoth flyby of Gladstone et al. (2021) and use them to make predictions about the rarity of majority hypervolatile (CO, N$_2$, CH$_4$) ices in KBOs and Oort Cloud comets. These predictions have a number of important implications for the study of the Oort Cloud, including: determination of hypervolatile rich comets as the first objects emplaced into the Oort Cloud; measurement of CO/N$_2$/CH$_4$ abundance ratios in the proto-planetary disk from hypervolatile rich comets; and population statistical constraints on early (< 20 Myr) planetary aggregation driven versus later (> 50 Myr) planetary migration driven emplacement of objects into the Oort Cloud. They imply that the phenomenon of ultra-distant active comets like C/2017K2 (Jewitt et al. 2017, Hui et al. 2018) should be rare, and thus not a general characteristic of all comets. They also suggest that interstellar object 2I/Borisov did not originate in a planetary system that was inordinately CO rich (Bodewits et al. 2020), but rather could have been ejected onto an interstellar trajectory very early in its natal system's history.
