Physics

Scientific paper

Two calculations are presented of the probability of detection of an interstellar comet, under the hypothesis that such comets would escape from comet clouds similar to that believed to surround the sun. The results are that an encounter might have happened within historical times, although the simple assumptions used render the calculation uncertain to about a factor of 10. Three problems are proposed, each of which would be a reasonable term project for a motivated undergraduate and the answers to which would be of interest and are not presently known.
