Scientific paper

A film showing the shells of Comet Hale-Bopp, taken on March 4, 1997, is digitized and measured by means of PDS. The method of fitting leads to the following results: (1) the first shell (innermost one), derived from a jet formation, is seen as an Archimedes spiral and the velocity of the ejecta from the cometary nucleus is 1.6 km/sec; (2) all of the 2nd, 3rd and 4th shell are parabolas or catenaries.
