A photometric method is described for accurately quantifying the brightness of short-period comets far from perihelion. The method utilizes the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Catalog (Data Release 7) as a homogeneous source of reference star…
The results of the photometric observations of comet C/2009 P1 (Garradd) performed at the 60-cm Zeiss-600 telescope of the Terskol observatory have been analyzed. During the observations, the comet was at the heliocentric and geocentric…
