Photographic eyepiece projection |
The photographic eyepiece projection First you compute the angle of vision the sun appears without using a telescope: (b1): tan α/2 = [Rs * (fok –1)] / fob * B or (b2): α = 2 arctan [Rs * (fok –1) / fob * B] = 0,545° , with α = visual angle of vision the sun appears without using a telescope fob = 1000 mm (objective focal length of my telescope) fok = 9.5 mm (eyepiece focal length of my telescope) Rs = 78 mm (measured radius of the sun picture in photo) B = 140 mm (image intercept of my arrangement) Re = 1.496 * 1011 m (earth's orbit) With the relationship (b3): Ds = 2πα * Re /360° I calculate a sun diameter of Ds = 1.424 * 109 m.
