Abstract:
To study the inner corona during the total solar eclipse of October 24, 1995, an experiment was setup at Kalpi, the second location of the two IIA camps. Continuous broad record at regular interval at 40ms (TV rate) using EEV P46580 CCD camera have been obtained from the beginning to the end of the eclipse with special emphasis on the totality period. The angular resolution corresponding to each pixel is 23 sec. of arc. The images were recorded with 8 bit resolution in terms of intensity. High quality data have been obtained upto 1.25R without any saturation in the inner region. The data are being analysed for two dimensional intensity maps in the regions of the inner corona and their variations with time. The study will also confirm the existence of oscillations in these regions and may be able to elborate on their bahaviour. The preliminary results of our analysis are presented.
