Scientific paper

The wavelet transform is applied to study the near-nuclear region of comet Hale-Bopp. The transform suppresses the coma background to enhance the visibility of coma features such as jets and shells from which apparent expansion speed is measured. Furthermore, two cometary bursts of this comet were found on April 22 and Sept. 10 - 11, 1996. The latter one coincides with a strong increase in the luminosity in X-rays almost at the same time. During the outburst, two globular ejecta were found, and their expanding speeds were about 100 m/s. In addition, the projected rotation period is derived.
