White Light and Emission Line Polarization of Solar Corona during TSE of June 21, 2001

Abstract

Coronal intensity and polarization maps have been obtained for the total solar eclipse (TSE) o o of June 21, 2001, observed from Lusaka, Zambia (location: 28 17.5E 15 24.5S, Alt. 1300 mtr) at broadband H 6563Å (FWHM 80Å), as well as, around the coronal emission lines 5303Å (FWHM 12Å), and 6374Å (FWHM 12Å). The results are discussed.
