Comet 1987 Vii Wilson, Cometary Tails: Dust

Scientific paper

Several photographic plates, both in red and blue light, were obtained by means of the ESO Schmidt camera to study the dust and plasma tails of Comet Wilson 1987VII. All these plates were calibrated by means of calibration wedges and therefore are suitable for a quantitative analysis of the dust and ion tails. The pass-band of the emulsionfilter combination of red plates is from 630 to 700 nm, close to the R photometric system. We used plates 681 0, 6829 and 6842 to study the dust environment of C/1987VII before perihelion by means of the inverse numerical method which was successfully tested on C/1973XII and C/1962 III (Fulle, 1989).
