Scientific paper

An attempt is made to establish the character of the data required to verify comet nucleus heat balance concepts published by Klinger (1980) and others. It is suggested that the most effective way to study a comet by means of either earth-based or orbiting instruments is that of quasi-continuous monitoring during apparition in the UV-radio frequency spectral range, with high spectral and spatial resolution. The most interesting phase of Comet Halley's apparition may be when the uppermost, amorophous ice layer reaches a temperature of about 153 K, leading to a rapid increase in activity.
