Scientific paper

Emission fluxes of CN, C2 and C3 carbon-bearing molecular species observed in the spectra of the nuclear fragment A and D of Comet West (1976VI) are analyzed in the framework of Haser's two-component model with radial outflow symmetry. Gas production rates have been derived and their ratios obtained. The gas-to-dust ratio, dust production rates in arbitrary units, total number of dust particles in the field of view and an effective radius of 2.0 km for the principal nuclear fragment is also estimated.
