AbstractHigh resolution images, obtained during July 11, 1991 total solar eclipse, allowed us to estimate the degree of solar corona polarization in the light of FeXIV 530.3 nm emission line and in the white light, as well. Very preliminary analysis reveals remarkable differences in the degree of polarization for both sets of data, particularly as for level of polarization and its distribution around the Sun’s limb.

Ground-based total solar eclipse observations are still the key method for coronal investigations. The question about its white-light degree of polarization remains unanswered. There are hypotheses claiming that the degree of polarization in certain regions of the corona may be higher than the maximal theoretically predicted value determined by Thomson scattering. We present polarization of the white-light solar corona observations obtained by three different teams during the March 29, 2006 solar total eclipse. We give an interpretation on how the polarization of the sky impacts brightness of the polarized solar corona, depending on the landscape during the totality. Moreover, it is shown that the singular polarization points of the corona are in linear dependence with the height of the Sun above the horizon.

The total solar eclipse of 1984 November 22/23 was observed from a French naval vessel off Noumea (New Caledonia) in the Coral Sea. The observations were made by a team from the S.A.F., led by Serge Koutchmy and Christian Nitschelm of the Institut d’Astrophysique de Paris. The duration of the eclipse was considerably longer off New Caledonia (1 m 39 s) than in Papua-New-Guinea (55 s). However, the observational site – on board a ship well out to sea – greatly restricted the use of long-focal-length instruments that are normally employed. The equipment used to photograph this eclipse therefore was chosen with motion (pitching, rolling, etc.) of the support in mind. Short focal lengths were preferred, although one refractor with a focal length of 1.5 m was used as a trial.
