Abstract
AbstractThe observational data of the solar corona obtained during the solar eclipse of July 11, 1993, using both a electropolarimeter (EP) and a CCD matrix were processed. Using these data the photometry of the solar corona was carried out. The results of EP data were compared with those of the CCD data. It must be noticed here that the CCD data give us only the characteristics of the inner corona, while the EP data show the features of both the inner and the middle corona up to 4 solar radii.The standard flattening index ϵ was evaluated from both data. The dependence of ϵ on the distance from the solar limb was investigated. Three‐dimensional images of the coronal intensity distribution for different spectral lines are shown. Isophotes in Na and Ca lines with unusual features are plotted. Based on these data some ideas and conclusions on the type of the solar corona and the physical conditions in it are presented.
