Scheiner drawing sunspot areas and tilt angles
Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)
Digital images of observations printed in the books Rosa Ursina sive solis and Prodromus pro Sole mobili by Christoph Scheiner, as well as the drawings from Scheiner's letters to Marcus Welser, are analysed to obtain information on the positions and sizes of sunspots that appeared before the Maunder minimum.
Description
In most cases, the given orientation of the ecliptic is used to set up the heliographic coordinate system for the drawings.
Positions and sizes are measured manually on screen. Very early drawings have no indication of their orientation. A rotational matching using common spots of adjacent days is used in some cases, while in other cases, the assumption that images were aligned with a zenith-horizon coordinate system appeared to be the most probable.
