Abstract:
Narrow pass band hydrogen alpha filtergrams were obtained during totality at Kalpi, to look for cool pockets of H-alpha emission in corona first observed by Bappu and Bhattacharyya during the 1970 Mexican eclipse observations. A 1k XIk liquid cooled CCD camera was used to record the corona using 2 cm colar image. No evidence of any H-alpha emitting pockets was found in the observed part of the Corona.
