Descripción
The instrumentation and observational programs of the Solar Physics
Department of the Main Astronomical Observatory are described. The
observatory has two solar horizontal telescopes. The first one is the 44
cm telescope located near Kyiv. This telescope has a spectrograph with a
double pass system. It was designed for low scattered light and high
spectral resolution. The second one is installed at Terskol
High-Altitude Station in the Central Caucasus, at an altitude of 3100 m.
This 65 cm telescope with its spectrograph is used for simultaneous
photoelectric and photographic measurements of five solar spectral
regions in the range from 3000 Angstroms to 12000 Angstroms. One of the
scientific programs consists in the observation of solar irradiance
fluctuations with the DIFOS photometer aboard the Ukraine-Russian
satellite CORONAS-I, which was launched on March 2, 1994. These space
observations will be continued during the new mission CORONAS-F.
