Abstract: | A new method—the circular aperture method—is proposed for determining the physical parameters of gas in the neutral atmospheres of comets. A check has shown that this method is applicable to calculate the hydrodynamic velocity of gas outflow and the lifetime of molecules in the neutral atmosphere of comet 2009/P1 (Garradd). |
