Sunspot Observations at the Eimmart Observatory: Revision and Supplement
View through CrossRef
Abstract
Digital images of sunspot drawings of the archives of Georg Christoph Eimmart stored at the National Library of Russia are analyzed to obtain sunspot group numbers and sunspot areas as well as heliographic positions. Overall, more than a hundred drawings were processed. The impact of drawing and reproduction uncertainties and of the aims of historical observations are considered. The sunspot positions are compared to those reported by contemporary astronomers of the Maunder minimum. The restored sunspot group numbers and latitudes are compared to those extracted by Hoyt and Schatten as well as Hayakawa et al. The persistence of long-lived sunspots over several solar rotations is discussed.
