Spectrophotometric observations of Comet Austin (1982g) in the bands of CN, C,, and C, are presented, and fit to a Haser model for the cometary brightness distribution. The lifetimes of the parent and daughter molecules, as well as the velocity of the molecules leaving the cometary surface are deter

โฆ Synopsis
Spectrophotometric observations of the head of comet Austin (1989 Cl) during five nights in May 1990 are presented. Emission bands due to CN, Cz and C3 molecules have been identified. An estimate of their column densities and production rates have been made.

We obtained images of [OI]6300 emission from Comet Austin \(1990 \mathrm{~V}\) using the Wisconsin dual-etalon Fabry-Perot/CCD imaging spectrometer at the McMath solar telescope on Kitt Peak. The field of view diameter on the sky was approximately \(10 \cdot 5\). The spectral resolution of \(0.21 \A
Spectrophotometric observations of head of comet Bradfield (1987s) during three nights in 1987 are presented. An estimate of the CN, C,, and C, column densities and production rates have been made.
