Stacked images of comet C/2014 N3 for the four NEOWISE visits with significant signals (see Table 3); on 4 July 2014 (Panel a), 13 December 2014 (Panel b), 8 August 2015 (Panel c), and 10 January 2016 (Panel d). For each panel, the 3.4 μm band stacked image is mapped to the blue and green channels, and the 4.6 μm stacked image is mapped to the red. The N and E sky directions are labeled, along with the antisolar vector (in red) and the anti-velocity vector (in blue). The photometry from NEOWISE observations of comet C/2014 N3 for each visit is shown below the stacked image. The fluxes from emissions at 3.4 μm (red triangle) and 4.6 μ (black diamond) are shown. The reflected light model (dotted line), thermal model (solid line), and combined signal (dashed line) are overplotted.
