Observations of Coronal Velocity Field, Flash Spectrum and Shadow Bands During Total Solar Eclipse 1980

Abstract

Observations using a multislit spectrograph at 5303A Fe XIV line were obtained during the 16 February, 1980 total solar eclipse, for velocity field determination in the solar coronal. A colour movie film of the flash spectrum was obtained using an objective prism coupled with a telephoto lens and the intensity fluctuations of the shadow bands have been photoelectrically observed.
