As a comet approaches the inner Solar System, [[solar radiation]] causes the volatile materials within the comet to vaporize and stream out of the nucleus, carrying dust away with them. Separate tails are formed of dust and gases, becoming visible through different phenomena; the dust reflects sunlight directly and the gases glow from [[ion]]isation.

As a comet approaches the inner Solar System, [[solar radiation]] causes the volatile materials within the comet to vaporize and stream out of the nucleus, carrying dust away with them. The streams of [[Cosmic dust|dust]] and gas thus released form a huge, extremely tenuous atmosphere around the comet called the ''[[coma (cometary)|coma]]'', and the force exerted on the coma by the Sun's [[radiation pressure]] and [[solar wind]] cause an enormous ''tail'' to form, which points away from the Sun. The streams of dust and gas each form their own distinct tail, pointing in slightly different directions. The tail of dust is left behind in the comet's orbit in such a manner that it often forms a curved tail called the [[antitail]], only when it seems that it is directed towards the Sun. At the same time, the ion tail, made of gases, always points along the streamlines of the solar wind as it is strongly affected by the magnetic field of the plasma of the solar wind. The ion tail follows the magnetic field lines rather than an orbital trajectory.

As a comet approaches the inner Solar System, <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Solar_radiation" class="mw-redirect" title="Solar radiation">solar radiation</a> causes the volatile materials within the comet to vaporize and stream out of the nucleus, carrying dust away with them. The streams of <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Cosmic_dust" title="Cosmic dust">dust</a> and gas thus released form a huge, extremely tenuous atmosphere around the comet called the <i><a href="/enwiki/wiki/Coma_(cometary)" title="Coma (cometary)">coma</a></i>, and the force exerted on the coma by the Sun's <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Radiation_pressure" title="Radiation pressure">radiation pressure</a> and <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Solar_wind" title="Solar wind">solar wind</a> cause an enormous <i>tail</i> to form, which points away from the Sun. </p><p>The streams of dust and gas each form their own distinct tail, pointing in slightly different directions. The tail of dust is left behind in the comet's orbit in such a manner that it often forms a curved tail called the <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Antitail" title="Antitail">antitail</a>, only when it seems that it is directed towards the Sun. At the same time, the ion tail, made of gases, always points along the streamlines of the solar wind as it is strongly affected by the magnetic field of the plasma of the solar wind. The ion tail follows the magnetic field lines rather than an orbital trajectory. <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Parallax" title="Parallax">Parallax</a> viewing from the Earth may sometimes mean the tails appear to point in opposite directions.<sup id="cite_ref-5" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-5">&#91;5&#93;</a></sup> </p> <h2><span class="mw-headline" id="Size">Size</span><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Comet_tail&amp;action=edit&amp;section=2" title="Edit section: Size">edit</a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></h2> <p>While the solid nucleus of comets is generally less than 30&#160;km across, the coma may be larger than the Sun, and ion tails have been observed to extend 3.8 <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Astronomical_unit" title="Astronomical unit">astronomical units</a> (570&#160;<a href="/enwiki/wiki/Gigametre" class="mw-redirect" title="Gigametre">Gm</a>; 350<span style="margin-left:0.2em">×<span style="margin-left:0.1em">10</span></span><s style="display:none">^</s><sup>6</sup>&#160;<a href="/enwiki/wiki/Mile" title="Mile">mi</a>).<sup id="cite_ref-Yeoman_6-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Yeoman-6">&#91;6&#93;</a></sup> </p><p>The <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Ulysses_(spacecraft)" title="Ulysses (spacecraft)"><i>Ulysses</i> spacecraft</a> made an unexpected pass through the tail of the comet <a href="/enwiki/wiki/C/2006_P1" class="mw-redirect" title="C/2006 P1">C/2006 P1</a> (Comet McNaught), on February 3, 2007.<sup id="cite_ref-chance_encounter_7-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-chance_encounter-7">&#91;7&#93;</a></sup> Evidence of the encounter was published in the October 1, 2007, issue of <i><a href="/enwiki/wiki/The_Astrophysical_Journal" title="The Astrophysical Journal">The Astrophysical Journal</a></i>.<sup id="cite_ref-8" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-8">&#91;8&#93;</a></sup> </p> <h2><span class="mw-headline" id="Magnetosphere">Magnetosphere</span><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Comet_tail&amp;action=edit&amp;section=3" title="Edit section: Magnetosphere">edit</a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></h2> <p>The observation of antitails contributed significantly to the discovery of <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Solar_wind" title="Solar wind">solar wind</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-9" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-9">&#91;9&#93;</a></sup> The ion tail is the result of <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Ultraviolet" title="Ultraviolet">ultraviolet</a> radiation ejecting electrons off particles in the coma.
