Using optical spectra (3550-6800 A) obtained with the 1.5-m University of Bologna telescope for the preperihelion phase, and with the 1.52-m ESO telescope for the postperihelion phase, the coma of Comet Halley is studied. A total of 25 spectra were obtained with different slit orientations and exposure times. The observed extension of the scattered solar radiation implies a very extended dust component.
