Spectroscopic observations of comet Kohoutek (1973f)

Coude spectrograms of comet Kohoutek obtained with the ESO 152-cm telescope in La Silla, Chile are discussed. Emission features of the C3, CH, and CO(+) molecules found in the blue region of the spectrum are considered along with measured emissions in the visual region of the spectrum. The observational and cometary data are given in tabular form.
