摘要: Periodic comet 17P/Holmes underwent a very large outburst of brightness on 2007 October 24. In this paper, the probable causes event have been reviewed. Consideration focuses four potential mechanisms as follows: (a) polymerization hydrogen cyanide HCN; (b) crystallization amorphous water ice; (c) thermal stresses and (d) created by icebound CO. The main characteristics cometary outbursts calculated discussed values released energy jumps caused considered mechanisms. obtained results are consistent with ones observed during 17P/Holmes. conclusion paper is follows. hypothesis concerning related to CO inclusions appears be most cause according our present knowledge about physical chemical structure comets.
