Post-perihelion UVES spectra of interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS reveal elevated NiI and FeI production explained by direct sublimation of Ni(CO)4 and Fe(CO)5 from subsurface layers, with a transient heat source accounting for the pre-perihelion Ni excess.

Cometary ion dynamics at a weakly outgassing comet
Electron cooling exobase position organizes Rosetta ion-density regimes at 67P and requires inclusion in near-nucleus models to avoid underestimating densities.
