... It is found that the correlation coefficients between these two parameters calculated separately inside and outside the sunspot formation zone ±30 have cyclic variation and occur in anti-phase. This suggests different mechanisms of formation of the corona in the fields of small, medium, and large scales. ... The relationship between the coronal green line brightness (CGLB) and the magnetic field strength (MFS) has been investigated by constructing the corresponding synoptic maps for the 1977-2001. ...

... Let us first find out which way -- rise in spectral resolution with some loss in the S/N ratio or increase in the S/N ratio with a fixed spectral resolution -- is better for the purpose of reduction of equivalent width determination errors. ... N -- number of counts for 1 ? ... line equivalent width, . ... Thus if the spectral resolution is managed to be increased (i.e. to decrease )without loss in the number of counts falling at 1 ?, the equivalent width measurement error is then proportional to . ...

The determination of the detector parameters is based on sets of images of a spatially uniform-illumination scene (flatfield frames) and without any illumination (dark frames), putting a plug in place of the filter, taken at a series of exposure times. ... We interleave before and after each exposure time in the series of flatfield frames a set of reference images at an exposure time of 1 sec to determine the possible temporal variation of the illumination level. ...

... First, we computed the mean errors of orbit parameters on the assumption of the linear connection of them with observation errors and then we compared obtained estimates with those resulting from the assumption of the nonlinearity of this connection. Secondly, we correlate orbital parameters and their errors obtained by the method of the least modulus with those obtained by the least-squares method. ...
