Drawing of the Corona Made from
Photographs Taken at Matheson,
Colorado, Showing the Com
plicated Structure Of the
Corona. By Edison Petit

The corona Of the June eclipse was very
unsymmetrical. resembling a huge triangle
in form. with the base TO the west Of the
sun and the apex to the cast. II is Of the
mixed type, in which the more evenly de-
vcloped steamers to the west represent
the type associated with maximum sun
spot activity and the longer equatorial
streamers TO the east the sunspot minimum
type, showing that the decline toward min
imum solar activity for this cycle has al
ready begun.
The longest coronal strcamers, those 10
the cast Of the sun, it has been estimated,
extend 10 distance OF fully three solar
dlameteTs, or over two and One-half mil
lion miles. This distance is not unusual.
In fact, during certain eclpses steamers
eight or nine million miles in extent have
been observed Tho petal formation so
noticeable in this eclipse has also been
noted in certain past ecipses particularly
in the Indian eclipse OF 1895 Most OF the
petaEformlng StreamerS seem to originate
near the limits Of the sUnspot zone while
those over the solar poles arc straight
The archinS OF the corOnal rays over all
the most important Dromnences is con-
sidered to be very significant. Ii has also
been observed in several past cclpses, and
there seems little doubt now that the same
forces in the sun that produced the cr,lp-
tive prominences were also responsible for
the arches above them. 1t is probable that
the coronal streameys are largely electrical
in their origin. just as the aurornl stream
ers Of the earth's upper atmosphere are
electrical phenomena
Evidence is also forthcoming from the
June eclipse to strengthen the view that
condensed metallic vapors arc projected
TO distances OF several million miles from,
the solar surface far beyond the limits

hundred thousand miles, though heights
of over three hundred thousand miles have

Coronium.
1t is strongly suspected that this is not
the only line OF this clement though II is
the most intense one. II is believed that
thcrc are at least two or three fainter lines
hclonsing 10 this element in the violet
end OF the spectrum.
lt Is also believed that there may be two
OF three more unknown clements that are
true coronal clements occurring, however,
less generally than coronium Il is not
likely jhat all OF the fourteen or more
htlEht lines OF unknown origin that have
been observed in the corona belong to the
element coronium. 1t is believed By GER
-tain scientists that the coronal lines rep
resent some form OF matter electrically
excited. knowing the accurate wave

average height The two most conspicu
GUS We're apparently between fifty thou
sand and sixty thousand miles in height,
though their actual height may have been
somewhat greater owing to the effect OF
fore-shortening. One Of these is most
peculiar in form, resembling the skeleton
OF some monstrous prehistoric creature,
so huge that two or three planets the size
OF the earth could be lodged in his skull.
Spectroscopfc records show considerable
distortion OF the images Of this prominence.
1t was, therefore, extremely active. Such
ewptive prominences frequently possess
Velocities greater than one hundred miles
per second, and undergo radical change OF
form within a very few minutes.
The accompanying photograph OF the
eclipse taken by the Yerkes Observatory
expedition at Green River, Wyoming,
shows this peculiar prominence very clear
~. The cruptive varieties OF prominence
are always extremely short-lived coming
and going as the result of some myster-
ious form OF solar activity that undergoes
periodic cycle OF change and regulates
not only the frequency Of these outbursts
OF iucandescent gases from the suns in
terror, bit also the frequency of sunspots
and many allied phenomena, such as the
form OF the corona and the general mag
netic field Of the sun. Discoveries bearing
upon tho cause Of any one Of these phe-
nomona may unravel the secret of the 9TH
ers, for all are different manifestations Of
some great underlying force that pulsates
periodically through the suns Interior
1t is still early to consider the complete
results or the June eclipse, since most OF
the astronomers who observed it are now
bUsily occupied with astronomical work
connected with the war and have had, in
many Instances. no opportunity to examine
extensively the records obtained. Some OF
the photographs and spectrograms have not
yet been developed and n number Of OBJ
servers have made only preliminary re-
ports.
The total phase OF the eclipse was OBJ.
served with great success by the Lick OBJ
servatory expedition at GolGendale, Wash.
According 20 Professor w. W. Campbell,
director OF the Lick Observatory, the OBJ
servations are the most valuable obtained
by any expedition that has ever been sent
on from the Kick Observatory.
The teTted States Naval Observatory
was graT ed an appropriation OF three thou
SAND d9llars by Congress in 1916 for the
observation OF this eclipse, and obtained
Va!upOlc results at Baker Oregon The

stations, one at Green River, Wyo.; a Sec

Matherson, Col. Observations of great
Vaue were made at Matheson. where q
number OF expeditions from college and
State observatories were also stationed.
Unfortunately, no observations were pos
sible ut Denver, Col, where extensive
plans had been made to observe the

OF dense clouds that persisted throughout

- OBSERVATIONS OF the total eclipse
I of the sun tina, was visible in the
United States on the eighth OF last
June have yielded results that will be of
great value 10 science 4 large number Of
excellent Photographic and spectroscopic
records OF the solar corona, that is Visible
only during the brief moments OF total
eclipse OF the sun. were obtained by nearly
all OF the eclipse expeditions that were sta
toned along the path OF totality in the
western States from Washington TO
Kansas.
1t is expected that the information de.
rived from careful future examinations OF
these records will materially assist in adj
vancing our knowledge OF the nature of
the solar radiations and the connections
existing between the sun spot cycle OF
solar activity and all the attendant. compli-
Gated phenomena OF the upper solar at
mosphcre, as we'll as the resulting changes
in the earth's magnetism and weather con
ditions.
On nearly every clear day for several
weeks preceding the evcntful day OF the
eclipse sun spot groups were TO be seen
on the surface Of the sun. The period Of
maximum solar activity for this cycle was
passed only year or so ago, and as the
decline toward the period OF minimum ac-
tivity several years hence is very gradual
1t was predicted that the light OF that
mysterious halo Of the sun, the corona.
would be unusually brilliant. This prcdic-
ton was fulfilled, for the corona visible
during the eclipse or June s, will so down
into eclipse history as one Of the most
brilliant and interesting in it's complicated
structure Of any OF the cclipses OF recent
years.
Prints from original negatives unfOrtu-
nately fail utterly to convey to us any idea
OF the magnifcence OF the corOnal structure,
while the exquisite pe2rly radiance OF its
tight, described by observers OF this eclipse
as bluish-white, is but cherished memory
to those who were fortunate enough TO OBJ
serve 1t. To appreciate how complex and
intricate is the structure OF the corona one
must 90 either TO the original negatives
that are full OF detail to photograph
copies on glass or drawings from the orig
1nal negatives. No adequate method for
reproducing the coronal structure on prints
has yet been devised. The accompanying
drawing of the corona made by Edison
Petit from negatives obtained at Mathe-
son, Col, gives us what tho Photographic
prints cannot giye-an excellent idea Of
the complicated structure Of the corona.
1t must be left to the painter to convey
to the mind the superb coloring, the con-
trasting effect of the bood-red promi-
nences, that were so conspicuous in this
eclipse, with the grayish tinged disk OF the
occulting moon, the orange-tinged chrome
sphere and the pearly light OF the coronal
streamers interlaced to form the petals of
some flowers gorgeous beyond description
or curved into series Of gothic arches
enveloping the most conspicuous promi-
nences and towering to height of more
than two hundred thousa Id miles above
the surface of the sun.
