Fe XIV emission on/off line animation
|
This animation illustrates that even though the filter used for Fe XIV emission photography was of
0.15 nm bandwidth, the contamination of the image by continuum is still very high. Both images
(530.2 nm on-line, 529.1 nm off-line) are in logarithm brightness scala and without any
structure enhancement. The images were precisely calibrated, therefore any change in brightness you
see in the animation is caused by a change of radiation intensity and not by difference of
brightness scala. The change of brightness is only minor in polar regions where the Fe XIV emission is
very weak. A strong Fe XIV emission is clearly visible in active regions as a significant brightness change.

| Camera | two Canon EOS 5D cameras |
| Exposure | 2 s (ISO 100) - 30 s (ISO 400) |
| Processing | 16 on-line and 16 off-line eclipse images used. Eclipse images calibrated by means of dark frames and flat-fields, aligned by means of phase correlation, composed by means of LDIC 5.0 software. Final processing was done using ACC 6.1 software.
