Scientific paper

About 60 images taken by VEGA spacecraft during the close approach to Halley comet were utilized for the nucleus shape reconstruction. Special gradient algorithm was applied to the images and nucleus limbs were extracted. 3-D model of the nucleus was defined as an intersection of the cylinders provided by parallel shift of the scaled limbs along the corresponding lines of view. Tomography restoration for scattering efficiency distribution in the inner coma was based on the modified Cormack's method using the same 60 images.
