Development of an Instrument Based on a Fibre-Bonded CCD Camera for Prominence Observations
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 12 April 2016
Abstract
We have devloped and tested an instrument based on a fibrebonded CCD camera for observations of solar prominences. To record faint prominences we have used a solid aluminized glass cone which reflects bright solar disc light outside the telescope tube. The prominence monitor is installed at the back end of a 15-cm f/15 coude refractor telescope after the H-alpha filter. This prominence monitor is capable of recording prominence images at an interval of 5 sec, but during prominence eruptions it can record images at an interval of 2 sec.
