Abstract The trapping of various gases by water ice at low temperatures (20–80K) and their release from the ice upon warming, was studied experimentally. The results of these experiments, together with a computation of the thermal evolution of a cometary nucleus, can explain the gas and dust jets which were observed to emanate from the nucleus of P/Halley. The experimental results are important also to the gas content of Titan.
