New investigations of the photoluminescence of frozen hydrocarbon particles of icy cometary halo have been made. The process of photoluminescence of icy particles in the ultraviolet solar radiation field is considered. The comparative analysis of laboratory and observed data leads to the preliminary identification of some sixty eight photoluminescent emission features in the spectra of 109P/Swift Tutle and 23P/Brorsen Metcalf comets. Formulae are given for the calculation of the efficiency of the photoluminescence of icy organic particles in the cometary halo.
