A normal circular spot. at 155-6.. 99-3..-12-6 159-6.. 994..-12-7 162-5 99 5-W5 Diurnal motions +1-and zero.... for lat.--13o. 465. Rather high north. Normal spot. at 159563 25-3.. +37-2 162-524.. 224.. +37-o The first observation was taken near the limb, and there is no third one in the record. Diurnal motions--55'and--4'.... for lat. +370. 466. A nearly normal spot. at 162-5. 94. +113-1 166-5 IO-4 +12-8 Diurnal motions +15'and--4'.... for lat. +130. 470. A neat circular spot. at 173-6.. 306-8..-25-3 1766.. 308-2..-26-0 The last observation was taken very near the limb, and as the resulting motions are con-tradictory, I do not put them down. 471. A dot first without and then with penumbra. at 166-6.. 298-6.. +16-0 173-6.. 299-8.. +15-6 476. Observed three times, but as one of two components disappears, no comparison of positions can be made. 479. A rather large circular spot. at 176-5.. 18o-0..--14-5 180-5.. 180-3..--14-9 183-5.. 180-1..-14-7 Diurnal motions zero and zero.... for lat.--15o. 485. A normal circular spot of 2 diameter. Diurnal motions--50-and + 6-.... for lat. + 29. 486. Another circular penumbral spot. 488. I disregard the influence of the small spots north-following. at 190-6.. 2-2.. +134 197-6.. 2-2.. +137 Diurnal motions zero and +3'.... for lat. + 13 491.

On Sunspots
Author: Galileo GalileiPublisher: University of Chicago Press

Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 431
Book Description
Galileo’s telescopic discoveries, and especially his observation of sunspots, caused great debate in an age when the heavens were thought to be perfect and unchanging. Christoph Scheiner, a Jesuit mathematician, argued that sunspots were planets or moons crossing in front of the Sun. Galileo, on the other hand, countered that the spots were on or near the surface of the Sun itself, and he supported his position with a series of meticulous observations and mathematical demonstrations that eventually convinced even his rival. On Sunspots collects the correspondence that constituted the public debate, including the first English translation of Scheiner’s two tracts as well as Galileo’s three letters, which have previously appeared only in abridged form. In addition, Albert Van Helden and Eileen Reeves have supplemented the correspondence with lengthy introductions, extensive notes, and a bibliography. The result will become the standard work on the subject, essential for students and historians of astronomy, the telescope, and early modern Catholicism.
