  • 1. Arizona State Univ., Tempe (USA)

Description

Spectroscopic observations of the Giacobini-Zinner comet were performed on March 20, June 20 and 21, September 11, and October 19, 1985. The September observations were performed at perihelion, exactly at the time of the International Cometary Explorer (ICE) encounter with the comet. The March and June observations were obtained with an intensified image dissector scanner (IIDS) on the 2.1-meter Kitt Peak telescope and the September and the October observations were obtained with a charge-coupled device (CCD) on the 4-meter Kitt Peak telescope. The nucleus spectra from these observations are presented
