Comets: Cosmic Tracing of the Solar System Formation

ORAL

Abstract

Comets are remnants of the early stages of the Solar System and the most primitive Solar System bodies. Understanding their nature and evolution history provides important clues about the formation of the Solar System and the planets. Comets contain complex organic molecules and may have played a key role in delivering water, organics and noble gases from the interstellar medium to the early Earth, contributing to the origin of life. In this talk, I will delve into the examination of photometric and spectroscopic observations of comets, showing what valuable insights we can get about the formation of our solar system.
