Scientific paper

Astronomical observations indicate that formation and destruction of
dust mantles on cometary nuclei may be the cause for erratic and
systematic variations of cometary activity, i.e. emission of dust. A
laboratory experiment (KOSI-9) has been performed to study the evolution
of a dust mantle on top of a sublimating ice-dust mixture in vacuum.
