Spectroscopic observations (4000 - 7000 Å) were obtained of comet P/Halley near the time of the spacecraft encounters in March 1986. New molecular ion emission features were observed in the long-slit CCD spectra. Additional spectroscopic observations obtained in April 1986 confirm the presence of many new ion features in the plasma tail. Here the authors propose that CO2+ be identified with the new features in the 4000 - 4350 Å region. The authors suggest that the other unidentified ion features may be attributable to a single ion species.
