As Fig. 4, but for a hundred-meter-sized body. The initial position is chosen starwards of the snowline, which is at 4.3 AU. One of the cometary nucleus model runs is started with a low initial bulk temperature of 20 K (green line), whereas the other is pre-heated to the local gas temperature at the starting location (170.16 K), which is theimplicit assumption of the Analytical Sublimation. The lines of the analytical sublimation model and the preheated comet model are barely distinguishable. The local gas temperatures at the end of the calculation are 174.95, 175.07, 174.94 K for the preheated, analytical and the cold model respectively.
