ECLIPSE AREA AND ECLIPSE FUNCTION CALCULATIONS,

Abstract

Description of methods of calculation of tables which are presented, including, (1) exposed areas of sun eclipsed by moon whose diameter is 1.04 of the sun's diameter, (2) areas when diameters are equal in size, including corona out to 1.5 of the radius of the sun and (3) variation in intensity of radiation from sun for 1.04 eclipse.
