Scientific paper

The CCD-observations of Comet Halley at a 192 cm telescope with International Halley Watch (IHW) filters for near nucleus studies and special narrow band filters are reported. A ring masking technique was applied to visualize gas and dust jet behavior during 5 days of observation around the Giotto flyby. Whereas the detection of CN jets is unambiguous, C2, C3, CO(+), and H2O(+) jets are still affected by dust contamination.
