Abstract: | The formation of a weak shock at the interaction of the solar wind with the cometary neutral gas is confirmed in a non-stationary gasdynamic model. No shocks will be detectable along the ICE path and if the VEGA/GIOTTO spacecraft enter the cometary atmosphere. A shock can only be expected at an exit from the Halley atmosphere. |
