The Frank-Condon factors q sub (v' v'') are calculated for the spectra of the H2O(+) molecule by the method of Volkenstein et al. (1972). The results are presented in a table for values of v' from 5 to 17 and of v'' from zero to 4, indicating which bands have been observed either in the laboratory or in comets. It is shown that the photon scattering coefficient of Chamberlain (1978) can be calculated using these data for the (8,0) band; values of about 0.060 for the earth and about 0.17 for Halley's comet (at its 1986 perihelion) are determined.
