  • Giridhar, S (Indian Institute of Astrophysics, 1978)
    A velocity curve of the Wolf-Rayet eclipsing system HD 214419 is obtained from measures on prismatic spectra of the Hell 5411 emission line. The shape of the velocity curve is unlike that obtained for Hell 4686. The emission ...
  • Krishan, V (Indian Institute of Astrophysics, Bangalore, 1988)
    The maintenance of the million degree solar corona continues to be a challenging and an inspiring problem. There are basically two different mechanisms of heating depending upon the dominance or otherwise of the magnetic ...
  • Antia, H. M (Indian Institute of Astrophysics, Bangalore, 1988)
    Many of the oscillations observed at the solar surface have been identified with resonant normal modes of the entire solar body. Accurate measurements of frequencies of these modes enable us to study the internal structure ...
  • Ajith Prasad, K. C; Nampoori, V. P. N; Vallabhan, C. P. G (Indian Institute of Astrophysics, Bangalore, 1991)
    The design and frabication of a Helmholtz type gas phase photoacoustic cell are described. The cell which incorporates a miniature microphone (Knowles B.T.1759) along with a matching pre-amplifier is very sensitive and can ...
  • Jaaffrey, S. N. A; Jain, Rajmal; Pandya, Alok; Bharti, Lokesh (Indian Institute of Astrophysics, Bangalore, 1997)
    We report the first observations of absorption and enhancement in flux of high energy photons during thte total solar eclipse of October 24, 1995. For the purpose of these observations, we employed a scintillation counter ...
  • Singh, J; Gupta, S. S; Cowsik, R (Indian Institute of Astrophysics, Bangalore, 1997)
    Two coronal emission lines 5303 Armstrong (Fe XIV) and 6374 Armstrong (Fe X) corresponding to ionization temperatuess of 2 and 1 million degree kelvin respectively were used to obtain the high resolution coronal spectra ...
  • Degaonkar, S. S (Indian Institute of Astrophysics, Bangalore, 1986)
    High resolution observations in the radio range from the ground and X-rays from satellites during the past few years have provided new insights into the nature of emission processes and energies of solar eruptions. It is ...
  • Chitre, S. M (Indian Institute of Astrophysics, Bangalore, 1988)
    The role of Our Sun as a valuable astrophysical laboratory for testing theories of stellar physics is highlighted. The state of our knowledge concerning the solar interior and the possible probes for gaining insight into ...
  • Gupta, B. D (Indian Institute of Astrophysics, Bangalore, 1991)
    In the present communication we have studied the contribution of cellular adaptation in increasing the photoreceptor increment threshold as a function of background intensity in intact eye and isolated retina. In intact ...
  • Shivanandan, K; Scaria, K. K; Nair, R. M; Rajamohan, R; Sivaraman, K. R (Indian Institute of Astrophysics, Bangalore, 1987)
    An infrared photometer system has been developed for photometry of astronomical sources in the spectral band 1 to 5 microns. The characteristics of the system and preliminary engineering tests using the 1- m optical ...
  • Jain, S. L; Arya, B. C; Singh, S. K; Tripathi, O. P; Hamid, A (Indian Institute of Astrophysics, Bangalore, 1997)
    The occurrence of Total Solar Eclipse on October 24, 1995 provided an unique opportunity to conduct some experiments using IR sun photometers in the spectral range 0.75 micrometer to 1.6 micrometer and 205 to 14.5 micrometer ...
  • Peraiah, A (Indian Institute of Astrophysics, Bangalore, 1986-05)
    We present details of a new technique of obtaining a numerical solution of the radiative transfer equation in spherical symmetry in a polychromatic system. We employed the integral operators together with an interpolation ...
  • Chinnappan, V; Saha, S. K; Faseehana (Indian Institute of Astrophysics, Bangalore, 1991)
    For successful observations in any telescope, guiding becomes important. On 2.34 m Telescope at Vainu Bappu Observatory, Kavalur, a remote guiding system is assembled using Intensified CCD camera and a PC based image ...
  • Sivaraman, K. R; Venkitachalam, P. P (Indian Institute of Astrophysics, Bangalore, 1977)
    High resoulution spectrograms of the Balmer lines obtained at five positions from the centres to the limb have been used to study the r. m. s. intensity fluctuations and their dependence on the heliocentric angle. The ...
  • Shelke, R. N; Ingole, V. T (Indian Institute of Astrophysics, 1997)
    Intensity fluctuations of shadow bands during total solar eclipse of October 24, 1995 were recorded on magnetic tape using cross - shaped array of sixteen photo detectors at Nim Ka Thana. The plane of the array was placed ...
  • Alurkar, S. K (Indian Institute of Astrophysics, Bangalore, 1988)
    In this tutorial talk, the ground-based, inexpensive method of interplanetary scintillation (IPS) is described, starting with a general background of scattering of e.m. radiation in turbulent media. This is followed by the ...
  • Krishan, V (Indian Institute of Astrophysics, 1988)
  • Royds, T (Indian Institute of Astrophysics, Bangalore, 1914-08-06)
  • Scaria, K. K (Indian Institute of Astrophysics, Bangalore, 1980)
    We present details of procedure on equidensitometry of globular clusters using the Sabattier technique in photography. Equidensitometry of Omega Centauri and 47 Tuc shows that both clusters become more elliptical beyond r ...
  • Subbarayan, A; Balasubramanian, C; Narayandass, Sa. K (Indian Institute of Astrophysics, Bangalore, 1991)
    Perylene thin films were deposited on cleaned glass substrates by ion plating technique in r.f.glow (10 MHz) sustained by argon gas of pressure 0.399 Pa. Laser-induced damage threshold of these thin films has been studied ...
