After some delay I managed to get some images of this comet with the
0.8m telescope on Mt. Lemmon. The processed image, taken in strong
moonlight, is here:

The telescope has 0.65"/pix and the FWHM was 1.5". I've used the same
rotational gradient processing as you but no sign of any fragment.
Nick.
