Abstract
Recent results of theoretical investigations related to generation of high-energy (0.1–1 keV) photons in comets due to production of high-temperature (3×10 5 – 10 7 K) plasma clots from collisions of cometary and interplanetary grains at high relative velocities (70–700 km s −1 at heliocentric distances R=0.01–1 AU) are summarized and main features of the process are marked.
