About the Book

The NATO ARW on the problems of ground-based observations of Solar Eclipses was held in Sinaia (Romania) between 1 and 5 June 1996. The Workshop was divided into seven sessions, in which 17 papers were given, by key speakers, along with 30 oral presentations. Additionally, 30 posters were presented. This issue contains only the invited and oral papers. The posters are to be published in a special issue of the Romanian Astronomical Journal. The contributions were based on our present knowledge of solar corona physics and on the perspectives for future total eclipse observations, focussing especially on that of August 11, 1999, which will be the last eclipse of the century. The workshop sessions reviewed the results of past eclipse observations, coronal hot and cold structures, coronal heating, public education, and instrumental problems. At the end of the meeting a fruitful general discussion drew out problems to be studied and techniques to be used for forthcoming observations. Posters completed the workshop contributions.

Table of Contents:
Session 1: Principal scientifique results from the past eclipse observations.- Results from the coronal observations of the 1994 and 1995 total solar eclipses.- Distribution on halfwidths for the green coronal line (5303 Å).- Results of polarization observations of the white-light corona.- Distribution of polarization degree for the solar corona of 03 November 1994.- Fundamental contributions of the solar eclipse observations to solar physics in the second half of the 20th century.- Polarization of the 530.3 nm coronal line as observed on July 11, 1991.- Measurement of the coronal electron temperature at the total solar eclipse on 1994, November 3.- High resolution coronal imaging.- Session 2.: Small and large scale models of coronal structures.- Coronal physics inferred from the analysis of fine structures.- Radiative transfer in atmospheres with randomly distributed inhomogeneities.- Probing the solar atmosphere through radiophysics.
