Instruments on the Giotto spacecraft obtained data on the velocity distributions of pickup ions in the vicinity of comet Halley. Combination of data from two different instruments allows a comparative study of the pitch‐angle scattering rates and velocity diffusion rates of protons and water‐group ions. The key features of the data are reviewed.
