Tianwen-1 provided the first out-of-plane imaging of 3I/ATLAS, indicating large dust grains (hundreds of micrometers) ejected at 3-10 m/s with steady-state outflow and a mass loss rate of about 1000 kg/s.

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.
New NIR and optical spectra of the outbursting comet 12P/Pons-Brooks detect crystalline water ice at 140-170 K and gas ratios indicating typical C3 but depleted C2, with outburst kinetic energy of ~8e3 J/kg supporting amorphous ice crystallization as the trigger and a refractory-to-ice mass ratio of
Rubin Observatory delivers the earliest large-telescope astrometry and grizy photometry of interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS, including colors and a dust-to-nucleus cross-section ratio lower limit.
Spectroscopic observations of disintegrating comet C/2019 Y4 (ATLAS) classify it as a typical Oort cloud comet with less dust, where porous dust accounts for its slightly red reflectivity gradient of ~5% per 1000 Å.
