Abstract
âºWe determine cometary nuclear magnitudes from sky survey observations. âºWe present a method to derive size frequency distributions from sparse noise power law data. âºWe derive size frequency distributions for Jupiter Family comets and isotropic comets. âºThe size frequency distribution of isotropic comets is shallower than for Jupiter Family comets.
