Abstract: Some physical parameters of the neutral component of the coma comet 103/P Hartley were calculated by Hazer and Shulman models. To compensate for fast own comet’s movement for photometric observations two methods are investigated: recovery of the image by algorithms of the solution of the return task and method of effective diaphragms. It is shown that the method of effective diaphragms is preferable. |
