Results of this mission have changed our view and knowledge on the early solar nebula. The Rosetta mission is on its way to land on comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko and will investigate for the first time in great detail the comet nucleus and its environment starting in 2014. Additional astronomy and planetary space missions will further contribute to our understanding of dust generation, evolution and destruction in interstellar and interplanetary space and provide constraints on solar system formation and processes that led to the origin of life on Earth. One of these missions, SARIM-PLUS, will provide a unique perspective by measuring interplanetary and interstellar dust with high accuracy and sensitivity in our inner solar system between 1 and 2 AU. SARIM-PLUS employs latest in-situ techniques for a full characterisation of individual micrometeoroids (flux, mass, charge, trajectory, composition()) and collects and returns these samples to Earth for a detailed analysis. The opportunity to visit again the target comet of the Rosetta mission 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimeenternko, and to investigate its dusty environment six years after Rosetta with complementary methods is unique and strongly enhances and supports the scientific exploration of this target and the entire Rosetta mission. Launch opportunities are in 2020 with a backup window starting early 2026. The comet encounter occurs in September 2021 and the reentry takes place in early 2024. An encounter speed of 6 km/s ensures comparable results to the Stardust mission.}, language = {en} } @article{IjiriInagakiKuboetal.2018, author = {Ijiri, Akira and Inagaki, Fumio and Kubo, Yusuke and Adhikari, Rishi Ram and Hattori, Shohei and Hoshino, Tatsuhiko and Imachi, Hiroyuki and Kawagucci, Shinsuke and Morono, Yuki and Ohtomo, Yoko and Ono, Shuhei and Sakai, Sanae and Takai, Ken and Toki, Tomohiro and Wang, David T. and Yoshinaga, Marcos Y. and Arnold, Gail L. and Ashi, Juichiro and Case, David H. and Feseker, Tomas and Hinrichs, Kai-Uwe and Ikegawa, Yojiro and Ikehara, Minoru and Kallmeyer, Jens and Kumagai, Hidenori and Lever, Mark Alexander and Morita, Sumito and Nakamura, Ko-ichi and Nakamura, Yuki and Nishizawa, Manabu and Orphan, Victoria J. and Roy, Hans and Schmidt, Frauke and Tani, Atsushi and Tanikawa, Wataru and Terada, Takeshi and Tomaru, Hitoshi and Tsuji, Takeshi and Tsunogai, Urumu and Yamaguchi, Yasuhiko T. and Yoshida, Naohiro}, title = {Deep-biosphere methane production stimulated by geofluids in the Nankai accretionary complex}, series = {Science Advances}, volume = {4}, journal = {Science Advances}, number = {6}, publisher = {American Assoc. for the Advancement of Science}, address = {Washington}, issn = {2375-2548}, doi = {10.1126/sciadv.aao4631}, pages = {15}, year = {2018}, language = {en} } @misc{IjiriInagakiKuboetal.2018, author = {Ijiri, Akira and Inagaki, Fumio and Kubo, Yusuke and Adhikari, Rishi Ram and Hattori, Shohei and Hoshino, Tatsuhiko and Imachi, Hiroyuki and Kawagucci, Shinsuke and Morono, Yuki and Ohtomo, Yoko and Ono, Shuhei and Sakai, Sanae and Takai, Ken and Toki, Tomohiro and Wang, David T. and Yoshinaga, Marcos Y. and Arnold, Gail L. and Ashi, Juichiro and Case, David H. and Feseker, Tomas and Hinrichs, Kai-Uwe and Ikegawa, Yojiro and Ikehara, Minoru and Kallmeyer, Jens and Kumagai, Hidenori and Lever, Mark Alexander and Morita, Sumito and Nakamura, Ko-ichi and Nakamura, Yuki and Nishizawa, Manabu and Orphan, Victoria J. and R{\o}y, Hans and Schmidt, Frauke and Tani, Atsushi and Tanikawa, Wataru and Terada, Takeshi and Tomaru, Hitoshi and Tsuji, Takeshi and Tsunogai, Urumu and Yamaguchi, Yasuhiko T. and Yoshida, Naohiro}, title = {Deep-biosphere methane production stimulated by geofluids in the Nankai accretionary complex}, series = {Postprints der Universit{\"a}t Potsdam Mathematisch-Naturwissenschaftliche Reihe}, journal = {Postprints der Universit{\"a}t Potsdam Mathematisch-Naturwissenschaftliche Reihe}, number = {802}, issn = {1866-8372}, doi = {10.25932/publishup-42700}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:517-opus4-427002}, pages = {16}, year = {2018}, abstract = {Microbial life inhabiting subseafloor sediments plays an important role in Earth's carbon cycle. However, the impact of geodynamic processes on the distributions and carbon-cycling activities of subseafloor life remains poorly constrained. We explore a submarine mud volcano of the Nankai accretionary complex by drilling down to 200 m below the summit. Stable isotopic compositions of water and carbon compounds, including clumped methane isotopologues, suggest that ~90\% of methane is microbially produced at 16° to 30°C and 300 to 900 m below seafloor, corresponding to the basin bottom, where fluids in the accretionary prism are supplied via megasplay faults. Radiotracer experiments showed that relatively small microbial populations in deep mud volcano sediments (10 2 to 10 3 cells cm -3 ) include highly active hydrogenotrophic methanogens and acetogens. Our findings indicate that subduction-associated fluid migration has stimulated microbial activity in the mud reservoir and that mud volcanoes may contribute more substantially to the methane budget than previously estimated.}, language = {en} }
