Scientific paper

Ground-based CCD spectra of comet P/Giacobini-Zinner were obtained at the time of the ICE encounter. A spectral extrapolation gives the spectrum of the comet at the position and time of the spacecraft at mid-encounter. Column densities are given for neutral and ion molecules observed. The surface brightness profile for H2O+ from 1000 km sunward to 34,600 km tailward obtained at the time of the encounter is also presented.
