Baily's Beads Observations During the Total Solar Eclipse 2019 July 02
JOA 2020, Vol. 10, No. 2, Page 3 Author(s): Konrad GuhlAbstract: The timing of Baily's beads, observed during a solar eclipse, is one of the most accurate ground-based methods for estimating the solar radius. This work presents the observation and the result of the beads measurements derived from an expedition to the northern edge of totality of the total solar eclipse on 2019 July 2. A correction to the solar radius of $\Delta R_S = -0.08 \pm 0.06$ was derived from this observation.
