By Philip Fox, George Ellery Hale, Philip Fox

Book Overview

The book ""The Rotation Period Of The Sun As Determined From The Motion Of The Calcium Flocculi"" by George Ellery Hale was published in 1908. The book is a scientific study that explores the rotation period of the sun by analyzing the motion of calcium flocculi. Calcium flocculi are small bright spots that appear on the surface of the sun and are believed to be associated with magnetic fields. The author, George Ellery Hale, was an American astronomer who made significant contributions to the field of astrophysics. In this book, he presents his research on the rotation period of the sun, which he determined by studying the motion of calcium flocculi. The book is divided into several chapters, each of which covers a different aspect of the research. The first chapter provides an overview of the study and explains the methodology used to determine the rotation period of the sun. The following chapters delve into the details of the research, including the observations made, the data collected, and the calculations performed. Overall, ""The Rotation Period Of The Sun As Determined From The Motion Of The Calcium Flocculi"" is a comprehensive scientific study that provides valuable insights into the rotation period of the sun. It is a must-read for anyone interested in astrophysics or solar science.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
