Abstract

AbstractVarious instruments were used to study the solar corona at the July 22, 1990 eclipse. The white-light corona of July 22, 1990 is of maximum type (the Ludendorff index of the corona’s shape turns out to be a+b = 0.04). There are many streamers nearly equally distributed around the whole Sun, except of the southwest region where large coronal hole was located. The green (530.3 nm) and red (637.4 nm) coronal line intensities display many rapid changes in active regions around the eclipse day. Huge prominences were located above the E-limb. The estimated total brightness of the white-light corona (WLC) reached its value ofJK= 1.32 × 10−6.
