Arxiv - 2006 Fragmentation of Comet 73P/Schwassmann-Wachmann 3B Observed with Subaru/S... - 0 views

  •  
    We analyzed the Subaru/Suprime-Cam images of 73P/Schwassmann-Wachmann 3B and detected no fewer than 154 mini-comets. We applied synchrone-syndyne analysis, modified for rocket effect analysis, to the mini-fragment spatial distribution. We found that most of these mini-comets were ejected from fragment B by an outburst occurring around 1 April 2006.
