Spatial distribution of cometary dust particles in the six decade mass ranges, ≡10-10 to ≡10-16g, was obtained with plasma impact detector SP-1 on VEGA-1 and -2. Mass spectrum continues to rise below ≡10-14g. Selective light absorption influences 10-12 - 10-14g particles throughout radial interval 104 - 2×105km. Existence of several dust parabolloids is suggested with different properties of grains. Evidences of evolution of grains are found. Spatial dispersion of masses in distinct dust jet observed on VEGA-2 was used to evaluate the dust velocity dispersion and to associate the motion of particles with the rotation of nucleous.
