Scientific paper

Giotto observations of the inner coma of Comet Halley are analyzed, focusing on the dust distribution and the gas-dust interaction. Differences between the azimuthal and radial dust distributions are discussed. The profiles of dust jets suggest that gas emission is localized in the same source areas that give rise to dust. The observational results are compared with models of cometary dust and suggestions are made for improving the models to give better agreement with observations.
