More than 500 photographs of the ion tail of comet Halley taken on the ground during this apparition are surveyed to study the solar wind-ion tail interaction. Main disturbances of the ion tail are tabulated classifying them as outstanding rays, streamers, helices, kinks, knots, or arcades. Based on the photographs, a standard three-dimensional model of the cometary magnetosphere is proposed. The classified ion tail disturbances are explained further by possible interaction models taking into account of the IMF observation by Sakigake.
