Scanner Observations of P/Halley (1982i)
Abstract
The scanner observations of periodic Comet Halley (1982i) have been presented in the wavelength region λλ3200 7000 A for three nights during pre-perihelion period. Emission features due to NH, CN, CH, C3, C2, and NH2 molecules have been identified. The abundances and production rates of CN and C2 species have been estimated.
