Spectral and photometric observations of comet C / 2020 F3 were carried out at the Shemakha Astrophysical Observatory

Spectral and photometric observations of comet C / 2020 F3 were carried out using a new spectrograph installed at the Cassegrain focus of the two-meter telescope of the Shamakhi Nasreddin Tusi Astrophysical Observatory of ANAS, and using a CCD photometer on one of the guide auxiliary refractor telescopes of the telescope.

It is reported that on July 20, the distance between the comet and the Earth was 104.57 million kilometers, and on July 27 - 108.21 million kilometers. The observation results are planned to be published in international authoritative journals.
