Pickup ions observed at Comet Halley
Abstract
Data on the velocity distributions of pickup ions in the vicinity of Comet Halley that were obtained by the Giotto spacecraft are presented. Combination of data from two different instruments allows a comparative study of the pitch-angle scattering rates and velocity diffusion rates of protons and water-group ions.
