Extract

Radiation generated in the solar corona can be drastically altered by refraction and scattering as it escapes. This is especially true for sources having a frequency near the local plasma frequency, where the index of refraction approaches zero. Early investigations of the problem (e.g. Fokker 1965; Steinberg et al. 1971; Riddle 1972, 1974) have shown that the size, shape, location, intensity and time profile for the observed source can all be influenced.
