In the course of our work, we have performed a photometric study of the dust component in the coma of comet L3. To do so, we processed the comet’s observational images, measured the apparent magnitudes, and estimated the comet’s photometric parameters. We also compare L3 with other hyperbolic comets and studied the morphology of its interior.
