Riometer data obtained from several Canadian stations during the total solar eclipse of July 20, 1963, are presented and discussed. A small increase in cosmic noise level, amounting to about 0.25 dB at 30 Mc/s, was observed at Ottawa, Cape Jones, and Churchill.

Data obtained at Fort Providence, N.W.T., Canada, during the total solar eclipse of July 20, 1963, indicate that during most of the partial eclipse there was a moderate degree of auroral activity. This activity became slight during the period of totality and no auroral luminosity was detected. Electron precipitation was indicated by an enhancement of the intensity of X rays of energy greater than 9 keV at balloon altitudes and by small amounts of cosmic-noise absorption. A small but irregular increase in cosmic-noise level at 30 Mc/s, which was greater than 0.2 dB at totality, was recorded. It was concluded that the irregularity was caused by small amounts of superimposed auroral absorption.

AbstractWe present the results of the analysis of a movie taken over a small field of view in the intermediate corona at a spatial resolution of 0.5“, a temporal resolution of 1 s and a spectral passband of 7 nm. These CCD observations were made at the prime focus of the 3.6 m aperture CFHT telescope during the 1991 total solar eclipse.

AbstractHigh resolution images, obtained during July 11, 1991 total solar eclipse, allowed us to estimate the degree of solar corona polarization in the light of FeXIV 530.3 nm emission line and in the white light, as well. Very preliminary analysis reveals remarkable differences in the degree of polarization for both sets of data, particularly as for level of polarization and its distribution around the Sun’s limb.

Carriacou is a small island situated about twenty miles to the north of the island of Grenada, the chief of the Windward group, and furnished an excellent site for the observation of the last solar eclipse. Most of the observers sent by the Eclipse Committee of the Royal Society to the West Indies in August of last year remained at Grenada, or on the small islands in its immediate vicinity, whilst Mr. Maunder and myself occupied the more distant northern station, where the totality was slightly diminished in duration. The work proposed for Mr. Maunder was to secure a series of photographs of the corona, with exposures of 40s. and under, and also to obtain two photographs of the spectrum of the corona with the longest exposures possible.
