Abstract
The observation of [OI] 6300 » emission in the coma of Halley's comet 1982i, using the imaging Fabry-Pérot spectrometer, was carried out from Gurushikhar (24‡39′N, 72‡43′E, 1700m altitude), Mt. Abu, India on March 15, 1986 (R = 0.90 AU, δ = 0.96 AU). The analysis of the interferogram show the absence of the differential velocity of neutral oxygen above 5 km s−1.
