Spatially resolved quantitative spectroscopy of comets
Abstract
The chemical composition of cometary nuclei and the velocity field of the ejected daughter species were investigated through conventional, high-resolution spectroscopy and indirectly by imaging the dissociation radicals in the outflowing cometary comae. Gas production rates and comae symmetries were studied, and coma outflow mechanisms were modeled.
