Area-Intensity Integrator for Solar Flares.
Abstract
A new tool for solar research is described. The laboratory model simulates conditions of the sun as observed with a spectrohelioscope or Lyot-type , with which the instrument is to be used The product of the area times the intensity of flares is measured electronically without the need for photography resulting in a more precise measure of flare activity than is now used
