Physics of the Solar Corona

Abstract

Progress for the year included uncompleted analysis of 1966 eclipse plates for evidence of a difference in the chemical content of coronal condensations from that in the corona in general, continued work toward interpretation of the gradient of the emission-line features in the corona, the discovery of a linear relationship between flare productivity and length of the neutral lines in the longitudinal magnetic field in active regions, and the formulation of plans to study the color of the K-corona at the March 7, 1970, eclipse.
