Solar 530.3 nm corona irradiance variations in the cycle 21

Description

It is generally known that the intensity of the 530.3 nm coronal line depends on solar activity. The proposed coronal index (CI) represents the 530.3 nm line irradiance from the whole corona as it is seen from the Earth in Wsr-1x1016. CI is derived from daily measured intensities around the disc of the Sun. Maximum values of CI were observed in the second half of 1981 just before a sharp decrease in Wolf's number. Monthly average values of CI in cycle 21 vary from 1.64 to 18.93. A rough comparison of CI with similar indices of UV emissions shows relatively good agreement. (author). 4 figs., 18 refs
