Resumo
DETAILED spectral information on the Sun in the range of wavelengths from near 3 cm to 21 cm was obtained on November 12, 1966, when total solar eclipse measurements were being made. Several observers, using accurate equipment, reported the residual solar emission during totality, and these data were used in a discussion of the cm-wavelength solar corona. In order to have some uniformity in the analysis, we first established a smoothed total solar flux spectrum for the period of November 11, 12 and 13 (as shown by Kaufmann1). The residuals, in percentages, uncorrected for the active regions present in the solar disk, were then transformed into flux units and are shown in Table 1. © 1968 Nature Publishing Group.
