An Ultraviolet Spectrometer for the Rosetta Orbiter
ALICE Science Goals
The specific goals of the ALICE Science Team are:
To measure the highly volatile molecular species, particularly including
the noble gases (Ar, Ne and He) and the molecules CO,
CO2, and
N2; and also the most abundant atoms
(H, C, N, O and S)
To map the distribution of the outgassing around the nuclear surface and
as a function of the local insolation
