Aperiodic comet

term in astronomy
Aperiodic comet, track by parabola Or hyperbolic comet , because you can only approach the sun once in your life, and once you leave, you will never return. It is called an aperiodic comet. This kind of comet is not a member of the solar system, but a passer-by from outside the solar system, who accidentally intruded solar system And then return to the vast depths of the universe without hesitation.

Chinese name
Aperiodic comet
Alias
Interstellar comet [2]
Classification

Aperiodic comet Defined as comet Of Orbital period In 200 years or more, including comets that only return once, they will only pass through the interior of the solar system once. They usually have near parabolic orbits, so they will not return to the sun for thousands of years. (Please note that some long-term aperiodic comets refer to comets that will never return to the vicinity of the sun.)
The official naming of aperiodic comets begins with "C"; Comets that are no longer returning or may have disappeared begin with "D", including D/1770 L1 , which is considered to be subject to Jupiter Influence and change the orbit.

along with Primitive star The pressure and temperature inside the star will reach the critical value to ignite the hydrogen core, so the nuclear fuel inside the star will start to burn. During the process when the nuclear fuel inside the star starts to burn and glow, that is, the initial stage when the star starts to shine strongly, the temperature of the whole star starts to rise sharply, causing the volume of the star to expand explosively in a very short time, which causes the explosion of the star to be very huge, and a large amount of materials in the liquid hydrogen ocean wrapped in the outer layer of the star will be immediately Stellar atmosphere A large amount of material in and countless asteroids in low Earth orbit around the huge star ring around the star are ejected, which not only makes the star lose its original Stellar atmosphere And the huge star ring also reduces the angular momentum of the star's rotation.
Since the material on the ejected stellar ring has angular momentum surrounding the star itself, according to Conservation law of angular momentum , most of them will orbit the star along an oblate elliptical orbit comet meteor Wandering in the form of solar system And a small part of the material hits Mercury , Venus earth On other planets, a few materials that move very fast can leave the solar system and enter the vast Milky Way. One day, when they fly near other stars, they will form aperiodic comets of other stars.

solar system In Periodic comet It is mainly formed by the original solar atmosphere 4.5 billion years ago and the material in the huge star ring surrounding the sun. The solar projection makes the periodic comet like a satellite that has been re launched from the circular orbit around the sun, and has to orbit the sun along an extremely long elliptical orbit.
However, the aperiodic comet produced by the ejection of his star, due to its extremely fast movement speed, exceeds the separation speed required to break away from the sun's gravity. Once it is far away from the sun, it will never return.

McHoltz

On August 27, 2005, Comet "McHoltz" was discovered by American astronomers, and its number was C/2004Q2. The comet has two tails, spreading in opposite directions, which is very beautiful. It is easy to see with the naked eye in places far away from the interference of city lights. With a small binocular, you can see the hazy comet head and slender tail.

Comet Lulin is one of the three comets discovered by Chinese amateur astronomers in recent years. The comet is composed of Sun Yat sen University, Guangzhou Ye Quanzhi, an undergraduate, collaborated with Lin Qisheng, an observation assistant at the Lulin Observatory of the Astronomical Research Institute of the Central University in Taiwan, and made the discovery on July 11, 2007. International Astronomical Union It is named Comet "C/2007N3". This is also one of the most famous discoveries made by domestic astronomers.
The Chinese meaning of "C/2007N3" comet is: "The third confirmed comet in the first half of July 2007 is an aperiodic comet" (that is, there is only this observation opportunity, and the next return will be more than 28 million years later). At present, it has entered the best observation period. The comet is the closest to the earth around February 24, about 60 million kilometers, with brightness of 4 to 5 stars. If the weather is fine, the comet can be seen with the naked eye. At that time, Comet Lulin will be in Leo with Saturn. It has two tails. Ordinary astronomers can use astronomical telescopes or simple Binoculars Lulin Comet can be observed.
