Radiophysics and Quantum Electronics Aims and scope

Abstract

The mean absolute intensity of the solar continuum has been found by averaging the most reliable recent observational data from different authors. We used the modern experimental data on the solar constant, the spectral energy distribution, the limb darkening, and the blanketing effect. The continuum intensity is determined for the center disc and the entire disc. The brightness temperatures are compared with similar temperatures in the model of the photosphere.
