Observing the Sun is for amateur astronomers at all three levels:
beginning, intermediate, and advanced.
In Part 1, the book describes the very latest thinking on solar physics in (mostly non-mathematical) detail, incorporating the latest results from research concerning the structure and behaviour of the Sun. There is particular emphasis on the surface features visible from the Earth, and how these are the result of the extraordinary processes that are taking place within the Sun. In Part 2, the book details the techniques for observing and imaging the Sun with commercially-available equipment. The many recent advances in optical equipment now allow amateur astronomers to observe phenomena that until recently could only be seen with the extremely expensive equipment available at universities and research observatories notably H-alpha and Calcium-K telescopes. This is a completely up-to-date solar observing book, while providing the science background necessary for an understanding of the observations with the latest equipment. It also features the most complete solar observing and imaging guide available."
Solo fino a vent anni fa, un filmato dell attivita cromosferica della nostra stella, dell evoluzione di una protuberanza o di un gruppo di macchie, era prerogativa dell astronomo professionista, dotato di un telescopio di buon diametro sito in un Osservatorio solare d alta quota. Ai nostri giorni, i progressi dell elettronica e dell informatica mettono l astrofilo nelle condizioni di realizzarlo da se, con un telescopio amatoriale e un economica webcam. Questo libro, mentre aggiorna l astrofilo sulle piu recenti tecniche nello studio del Sole, rappresenta un ottimo trattato sulla nostra stella, sul suo funzionamento, sulle fenomenologie che interessano la sua atmosfera. Lo stile e divulgativo, ma rigoroso. I consigli osservativi sono frutto di una ventennale esperienza dell autore quale membro del Sunspot Program dell AAVSO."
