Scientific paper

COMETARY dust, as well as being one of the basic features of comets, is of importance in several major problems of the solar system: it is most nearly representative of solid particles in the primordial solar nebula1; it is a contributor to zodiacal light2; and, although Harwit3 has questioned its effectiveness, it plays some part in processes in interplanetary space4. Information concerning the nature of the dust can be obtained at present only by an analysis of scattered sunlight in the heads and tails of comets.
