Abstract:
Eclipse comets are a rare phenomenon but some suitable photographic or
photometric observations can be of some scientific value. 10 years of
photographic observations, covering six total solar eclipses, have yielded data
that indicate the possible existence of one or more relatively objects within
20 solar radii. Three of the events were monitored by more than one observation
site; each site produced multiple confirmation plates. The object images
indicate some alignment with the ecliptic and range from +9 to +7 equivalent
visual magnitude.
