So this apparatus will take the light of the very edge of the sun just as the eclipse becomes total, then of the bottom part of the corona, and then of the outer part. If it is found that some of the lines of the spectrum which appear in the photographs of the edge of the sun and the bottom of the corona, are not found in the outer part of the corona, or if some are found...
