    abstract     = "With the project the author extends a previous work about detecting and tracking sungrazer comets in a sequence of astronomical images taken by the instruments mounted on the {SOHO} satellite. Purposes, design decisions, methods applied and formal explanation will be provided. Good results are obtained and will be analyzed and criticised in order to allow further future improvements of the algorithm. The results will demonstrate that comet hunting in such images, which is now only redacted by amateur astronomers who visually analyze the pictures, is doable in a human unaided way given a previous proper choice of the parameters. The implementation will be developed using the Python programming language with the aid of mathematical libraries such as Numpy and Scipy."
