Sun photoheliograph

Japanese: 太陽写真儀 - たいようしゃしんぎ(英語表記)photoheliograph
Sun photoheliograph
A telescope for photographing the sun. It takes direct images of sunspots, faculae, and granular spots, and also takes direct images of the chromosphere using filters and a spectroscope, and photographs the solar spectrum. Because air turbulence is greater during the day than at night, various techniques are used to capture fine images of the sun within one arc second. (1) It is desirable to set up a telescope in a place with good seeing. Lake shores are considered to be places with good seeing because the lake water absorbs solar heat and there is less air turbulence than on the ground.

太陽を写真観測するための望遠鏡。太陽黒点,白斑,粒状斑などの直接像や,フィルターとか分光器を使って彩層の直接像を撮影したり,太陽スペクトルの写真撮影を行う。日中は夜間に比べて気流の乱れが大きいので,1秒角以内の微細な太陽像を撮影するためにはいろいろとくふうがこらされている。(1)シーイングの良好な場所に望遠鏡を設置することが望ましい。湖岸では,湖水が太陽熱を吸収し,地面に比べて気流の乱れが少ないので,シーイングのよい場所と考えられている。
