The Volatile Composition and Activity Evolution of Main-belt Comet 358P/PANSTARRS
We report the detection of water vapor associated with main-belt comet 358P/PANSTARRS on UT 2024 January 8–9 using the NIRSPEC instrument on board JWST. We derive a water production rate of ${Q}_{{{\rm{H}}}_{2}{\rm{O}}}=(5.0\pm 0.2)\,\times {10}^{25}$ molecules s ^−1 , marking only the second direct...
