Scientific paper

The dependence of brightness and polarization of cometary atmospheres on
the phase angle is studied. The similarity between the phase curves of
comets, minor planets, and the zodiacal cloud is pointed out. The
dependences found correspond to dielectric particles with dimensions
greater than 1 micron.
