Cometary spectral isophotes

Abstract

Observations of two recent bright comets, comet Bennet and comet Tago-Sato-Kosaka by a 91 centimeter telescope are reported. Results of monochromatic isophotes of the comets comas within 10,000 to 100,000 kilometers of their nuclei provide a spatial distribution of radicals, ions, and dust.
