dc.description.abstract	Photographs of the Solar Corona were taken using a refractor telescope and polarizer during the Solar Eclipse of October 24, 1995. Two sets of photographs with 0.5 second and 1.0 second exposure, for different orientations, were obtained. The maps for linear-polarization and for angle of the plane of polarization of the radiation from the solar corona were obtained from these photographs.	en
