Scientific paper

Observations of comet IRAS-Araki-Alcock 1983d in the infrared region from 12 to 100 μm are reported. The dominant feature seen in the infrared is an extensive dust tail not reported in visual observations. A dust production rate of 200 kg s-1 is deduced. The far-infrared spectrum suggests that the radius of a mean grain decreases from 30 to 5 μm along the tail.
