Scientific paper

The image-processing algorithm introduced by the authors in Paper I (Larson and Sekanina, 1984) is applied to high-resolution images of periodic comet Halley taken at the Lick, Helwan, Lowell, and Vienna Observatories during the period of May 12 - June 2, 1910 to close the gap between the May and June sequences of the Mount Wilson plates already processed in Paper I and subsequently analyzed in Paper II (Sekanina and Larson, 1984). With the exception of five days around the time of P/Halley's transit across the Sun's disk, the combined set of the Mount Wilson, Lick, Helwan, Lowell, and Vienna images presents a daily, and sometimes twice daily, record of coma features between May 5 and June 6, 1910. General characteristics of the coma features in this augmenting sample of images are discussed.
