Abstract
CONSERT (COmet Nucleus Sounding Experiment by Radiowave Transmission) is a 90-MHz radio wave experiment in the Rosetta mission to be launched by ESA in 2003. It is designed to sound the interior of a comet to determine spatial structures and the electrical properties of the cometary material
