A fragmentation model of dust grains in the inner coma of Halley. A possible explanation of the color effect
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 27 February 2018
Abstract
A model to describe the intensity of dust scattered light observed by the spectrometer TKS during the Vega/Halley encounter is presented. Good agreement is obtained when using a particle radius dependent mass density. The color effect is reproduced if the refractive index of tholin is adopted.
