	Corona : The Leader in Professional Quality Tools
		Corona Clipper, manufacturer of quality long handle and pruning tools for the landscaper, agriculturist, arborist and do-it-yourself markets has added a new line of professional post hole diggers (PHD) to its arsenal.
		Key players in Corona’s new PHD line include the PD 60000 Heavy Duty Hercules PHD, with a 10-gauge, tempered steel head for a long service life.
		Also new is the PD 40000 Heavy Duty Atlas PHD, featuring a 14-gauge, tempered steel head, sharpened blade edge and 48" extra thick ash handle; the PD 20000 Atlas PHD with a 14-gauge steel head and the PD 10000 Promo PHD, which has a 15-gauge steel head and 48" hardwood handles.

	Coronae
		Coronae have an intensely bright central aureole which is almost white and fringed with yellows and reds.
		The coronae is much smaller than the 22° halo which can also ring the sun and moon.
		Coronae are produced by the diffraction of light by tiny cloud droplets or sometimes small ice crystals.

	Corona - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Sun's corona is much hotter (by a factor of nearly 200) than the visible surface of the Sun: the photosphere's average temperature is 5800 kelvins compared to the corona's one to three million kelvins.
		The corona is separated from the photosphere by the relatively shallow chromosphere.
		The first direct observation of waves propagating into and through the solar corona was made in 1997 with the SOHO space-borne solar observatory, the first platform capable of observing the Sun in the extreme ultraviolet for long periods of time with stable photometry.

		But the corona can only be seen well in visible light from the earth during eclipses of the Sun by the Moon because it is millions of times fainter than the photosphere, the visible surface of the Sun.
		Because of its high temperature, the coronal plasma is highly ionized, and the corona is thus visible in a variety of emission lines.
		The corona is permeated by magnetic fields that in some regions form closed loops and in others open almost radially to the external space.

	SPARTAN 201-3: The Corona
		Even with this development, there are practical limitations to ground-based observing of the solar corona imposed by the scattering of light by both dust and molecules in the earth's atmosphere, as the brightness of the white light corona ranges from one millionth to one billionth of the central solar disk brightness.
		Images of the corona made from satellites in low earth orbit in the soft X-ray region of the spectrum demonstrate a highly structured corona where besides the forces of pressure and gravity, magnetic fields play a role in the determination of the Sun's outer atmosphere.
		Three forces are active in the solar corona at the base of the heliosphere; these are gas pressure and gravity forces similar to those experienced by humans near the earth's surface, and a third force produced by solar magnetic fields.

		Corona is caused by the electric field next to an object exceeding the breakdown value for air (or whatever it is immersed in).
		Since corona is fundamentally a breakdown phenomenon, it follows Paschen's law: the voltage is a function of pd.
		A popular approach to reducing corona on wires is to surrounding the conductor by a semiconducting film or layer of greater radius.

	The Sun's Corona - Introduction (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
		This region, called the Solar Corona, is where the solar wind originates.
		The corona has been found to emit X-ray radiation (the corona is a plasma; at temperatures greater than a million degrees a plasma will radiate a lot of X-rays).
		The corona can be seen during solar eclipses, when the main radiation from the Sun's surface is blocked by the passage of the Moon.

	City of Corona - Corona Public Library
		The City of Corona is located approximately 45 miles southeast of Los Angeles in western Riverside County.
		By 1982 Corona's agricultural industry faced a bleak future as "production costs made the economics of farming only fair or poor." Plans were begun to replace the groves with approximately 12,500 dwelling units.
		The plant produced citric acid, lemon oil, lemon juice and pectin which helped Corona gain the nickname "Lemon Capital of the world." As housing developments began to overtake the Southern California citrus orchards, Sunkist found that the lack of a local supply was forcing them to move.

	Corona (satellite) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Corona was the name of a series of US military reconnaissance satellites operated under a CIA program with substantial assistance from the US Air Force, used for photographic surveillance of the Soviet Union, China and other areas from June 1959 until May 1972.
		The Corona satellites used 31,500 ft (9,600 m) of special 70 mm film with a 24 inch (0.6 m) focal length lens.
		The last Corona launch was on May 25, 1972 - the project was abandoned after a Soviet submarine was detected waiting below a Corona mid-air retrieval zone.

	The Sun's Corona
		Structures visible in the corona at such times suggest that they are shaped by magnetic fields, and therefore, that the corona consists of plasma.
		XThe most remarkable aspect of the corona is its high temperature, deduced by the Swedish astronomer Bengt Edlen in 1942 after a study of the corona's light.
		Unknown spectral lines emitted by the corona were similarly credited to a new element "coronium" until Edlen showed that they came from the familiar atoms of iron, nickel and calcium, after they had lost an appreciable number of electrons (e.g.

	The Solar Corona
		As we shall discuss further in the section on the solar wind, the coronal holes are regions where the magnetic field lines of the Sun are open, allowing coronal gas to flow outward into space and producing the solar wind.
		The corona during the active Sun period shows many streamers at all angles around the disk of the Sun, while the corona during the quiet Sun period shows larger bottle-shaped streamers (the helmet streamers mentioned earlier) concentrated in latitudes near the equator.
		The extremely high temperature of the corona is thought to be associated with effects of the solar magnetic field, which can store and transport energy from lower regions of the Sun to the corona.

	About the Corona (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
		The corona is very thin and faint and is therefore very difficult to observe from the earth.
		Typically, we observe the corona during a total solar eclipse or by using a coronagraph telescope which simulates an eclipse by covering the bright solar disk.
		The corona also emits energy of many different wavelengths, from long wavelength radio waves, to short wavelength X-rays.

	The Sun's sizzling corona heats up
		It wasn't until the 17th and 18th centuries that astronomers were certain that the corona surrounded the Sun and not the Moon.
		The first hint that the corona might be really interesting surfaced during the total solar eclipse of August 7, 1869, which was visible from Alaska to North Carolina, when observers discovered a weak emission line in the green part of the spectrum of the corona.
		Since the corona cools rapidly, losing its heat as radiation and the solar wind, something has to be pumping energy up from the surface.
