Notes. Column 1 lists the measurement number, Cols. 2 and 3 give the start time of each measurement block, Col. 4 gives the distance from the barycenter of the comet’s nucleus, Col. 5 lists the measurement time, Col. 6 gives the sensor side operated, Col. 7 lists the margin, Col. 8 lists the fraction of the signal-free time in the measurement period, Col. 9 lists the frequency of false signals, and Col. 10 gives some comments. All measurements were collected in BCT2 mode.
