Scientific paper

Present understanding and basic questions of cometary coma chemistry and dynamics are reviewed. Comet-solar wind interaction, the particle-and-field environment of a cometary coma, and the chemical composition for both neutral particles and ions in different regions of a coma are discussed, stressing how the Giotto mission can contribute to elucidating these phenomena. Cometary models are postulated and expected results from Giotto measurements on Halley's Comet are mentioned.
