Scientific paper

Broad-band and intermediate-band infrared photometry of Comets Bowell, Elias, and Gunn is presented. The data for Comet Bowell show that the strongly depressed albedo near 3 microns observed by Campins and colleagues (1982) is very broad and extends at least to 4 microns. Scattering calculations indicate that existing infrared data do not provide direct, observational evidence for the presence of H2O ice. However, the material responsible for the 3-micron absorption observed by Campins and colleagues remains therefore unidentified.
