Solar diameter observations in 1997-1998

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

In January 1997, at the Observatsrio Nacional (ON), Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, CCD observations of the solar diameter with a Danjon astrolabe equipped with a variable angle reflecting prism began.

Description

This prism is operated manually and enables to observe the Sun many times per day and all year round on the Southern latitude {phi}=-22{deg}54'. Thanks to this and owing to a large number of sunny days at Rio de Janeiro, a high density of observations was achieved - 2900 East and 1730 West observations during the first 18 months.
