We present infrared spectroscopic observations of Comet \(\mathrm{P} /\) Swift-Tuttle obtained with the Cryogenic Spectrometer at Kitt Peak on 1992 November 8, 9, and 12 and December 8 and 10. The spectra cover the 2.9-3.6- \(\mu \mathrm{m}\) region. We detect emission from the \(\nu_{3}\) band of c
We calculate the position of dust trails from comet 8P/Tuttle, in an effort to explain unusual Ursid meteor shower outbursts that were seen when the comet was near aphelion. Comet 8P/Tuttle is a Halley-type comet in a 13.6-year orbit, passing just outside of Earth's orbit. We find that the meteoroid
