Scientific paper

The interaction of the solar wind with a cometary atmosphere is studied in the framework of a two-dimensional non-stationary gasdynamic model which is based on the classical approach of Biermann et al. (1967). Its predictions are compared with plasma measurements of the ICE and the VEGA/GIOTTO/SUISEI spacecrafts at their encounters with Giacobini-Zinner and Halley, respectively. Several of the observed large-scale flow features are well reproduced.
