Activity evolution for individual comets via tracking of excess dust mass

Summary: monitor the evolution of excess dust mass measured for individual comets at different orbit positions for comets for which nucleus sizes are known (and therefore excess dust mass can be computed by subtracting the expected flux contribution from the nucleus from the total flux of the comet measured using a optimized photometry aperture determined via curve-of-growth analysis)
