The scattering of radio waves in the solar corona
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 14 August 2015
Extract
The angular diameter of the Crab nebula is considerably increased when it is viewed through the solar corona. This effect is due to the scattering of the waves by coronal irregularities and its study gives some indication of the nature of the outermost corona. This paper is a summary of observations carried out each year at Cambridge for the period 1952 to 1958 inclusive.
