Scientific paper

Data obtained by two instruments of the RPA-Copernic experiment aboard Giotto during its encounter with Comet Halley are used to determine the positions of several sharp boundaries delineating transitions from one flow state to another. Production rates of the neutrals are obtained, along with ion-neutral drag coefficients. It is suggested that the cometopause observed between the shock and the ionopause coincides with the expected position of a previously proposed collisionopause.
