Solar Ultraviolet Spectrum Obtained from a Balloon Gondola
Abstract
A new flight of the L.P.S.P. balloon experiment on September 19, 1986 has permitted the recording of high resolution photographic spectra in the 2800 Å channel (1 arcsec and 15 mÅ). Several time sequences at Sun center, limb, intermediate location (μ = 0.5) and on a prominence have been performed; some of these results are presented. Data reduction of the high spectral resolution spectra recorded in 1982 has been completed for the region 1950-2000 Å, in which many features have been measured and tabulated; one of these detailed tracings is given and some results on wavelength shifts analysed.
