Scientific paper

Observational data for dusty comets are summarized and systemized.
The dependence of the linear polarization on various parameters (the phase
angle, wavelength, etc.) is analyzed. An ensemble of aligned spheroidal
particles having various sizes and chemical compositions is used to fit the
linear and circular polarization observed for the comet Halley.
