Abstract

Variation in gamma ray flux was recorded during the Annular Solar Eclipse on 21 June, 2020 at Jaipur, India where 88.3% of the solar disk was eclipsed. Two Sodium Iodide NaI (Tl) scintillation detectors were employed for the experiment and flux was recorded in the energy range 300 keV to 2 MeV. The first detector employed to record data for the duration of 3 h and 30 min records a sizeable enhancement at the characteristic energy 1460 keV and the corresponding single escape peak at 949 keV. No substantial variation in the radiations was noticed by the detector employed for recording data for 20 critical minutes during the peak of the eclipse.
