Description
This paper reviews the history of the radioastronomy of the Sun, from the earliest World War II observations, mainly in the U.K. and Australia, to the end of 1959. The review covers the areas of most interest, namely the Solar Corona, plasma oscillations, radio bursts, sunspots, and the radio techniques developed to study these phenomena, e.g. interferometers, radio spectrographs, and polarimeters.
