Ultraviolet spectra of Comet Hale-Bopp (C/1995 O1) were obtained near its perihelion from the SOLar-STellar Irradiance Comparison Experiment (SOLSTICE) on the Upper Atmosphere Research Satellite (UARS). These measurements in March and April 1997 are used to derive water and carbon production rates f

## Water (H 2 O) was detected in Comet C/1995 O1 Hale-Bopp on 10 dates between UT January 21.8 and May 1.2, 1997, using highresolution infrared spectroscopy. This is the first study of the heliocentric dependence of water released from a comet using direct detection of H 2 O itself. Production rat
Hydrogen cyanide (HCN) was detected in Comet Hale-Bopp at infrared wavelengths near 3.0 µm on four dates between Feb 24.0 and May 1.0 1997 using high-resolution spectroscopy. The average rotational temperature retrieved for the (001) vibrational level on UT 1997 April 29.9 was (95 ± 6) K near the nu
We observed Comets 122P/1995 S1 (deVico) and C/1995 O1 (Hale-Bopp) with high spectral resolving power in order to determine the ratio of N + 2 /CO + in their comae. While we clearly detected the CO + in both of these comets, no N + 2 was detected in either comet. From these spectra, we derive sensit
## Efforts to apply a single-scattering polarized radiative transfer code to interpret photopolarimetric measurements of coma dust optical properties in Comet Hale-Bopp corroborate previous photometrically derived conclusions concerning the predominance of small sized particles in Hale-Bopp's coma
