Scientific paper

The problem of solar wind/cometary tail interaction is reinvestigated by appropriately accounting for the presence of the high frequency electrostatic turbulence observed in interplanetary space. The turbulence has a drastic stabilizing effect on the hydromagnetic waves and permits the wavy structure in the tail only beyond some critical distance from the head of the comet; this is completely in agreement with the observations.
