    The solar corona was photographed at an effective wavelength of 6300A during the total eclipse of 1983, June 11 at Indonesia. From the isophotes of the corona, the intensity distributions along the equator, poles, streamers ...
  • Ca II K Emission from the Solar Chromosphere 
    Sivaraman, K. R (Indian Institute of Astrophysics, Bangalore, 1986)
    The role of the Ca II K line as a reliable diagnostic of the chromospheric activity on the Sun is reviewed. The chromospheric structures seen in this line serve as good indicators of the photospheric magnetic structures ...
  • The cause of the so-called pole effect in the electric arc 
    Royds, T (Indian Institute of Astrophysics, Bangalore, 1916-12-02)
  • CCD Observations of the Total Solar Eclipse of October 24, 1995 
    Verma, V. K; Wahab Uddin; Gaur, V. P; Joshi, G. C; Bondal, K. R (Indian Institute of Astrophysics, Bangalore, 1997)
    The observations of the solar corona during the Total Solar Eclipse of October 24, 1995 were attempted in white light and in narrow band filters with peak wavelenghts centered at 5303 Armstrong (FeXIV) and at 6474 Armstrong ...
  • Colour photography of solar corona during the total solar eclipse of October 24, 1995 
    Gopalakrishna Reddy, M; Rama Rao, P. V. S; Krishna Rao, D. V (Indian Institute of Astrophysics, Bangalore, 1997)
    Very good color pictures of the solar corona of 24th October 1995 were taken by a team from Andra University, from Budge Budge, Calcutta. A total of 36 pictures recorded the various phases of the eclipse from the first to ...
  • Comoving frame calculations with Lorentz profiles in radially expanding media 
    Peraiah, A; Raghunath, G (Indian Institute of Astrophysics, 1979-11)
    A computationally simple method for solving the line transfer in comoving frame has been described for radially expanding spherical medium. We have assumed a radially increasing velocity distribution and a non-LTE (where ...
  • Comparison of Experimental and Theoretical Study of Diffuse Reflectance of Highly Scattering Particulate Systems 
    Shah, H. S; Adroja, D. G; Vaidya, D. B (Indian Institute of Astrophysics, Bangalore, 1991)
    Diffuse reflectance of titanium dioxide pigment dispersion is measured in visible region for wavelengths 400(20)700 nm. Kubelka-Munk absorption and scattering coefficients are determined using two constant K-M theory. ...

    Royds, T (Indian Institute of Astrophysics, Bangalore, 1913-11-13)
  • Compton Broadening Due To Electron Scattering 
    Peraiah, A; Srinivasa Rao, M (Indian Institute of Astrophysics, Bangalore, 1993)
    We have investigated the effects of Compton broadening due to electron scattering in the hot stellar atmosphere, quasars, AGN's etc. We considered a purely electron scattering media. The Compton effect scattering function ...
  • A Computer Controlled Microdensitometer 
    Ananth, A. V (Indian Institute of Astrophysics, Bangalore, 1985-11)
