Abstract
The spatial and spectral features of the solar atmosphere make a certain class of observation easier during a solar eclipsethan unterb other conditions. When the transits of the East and West moon limbs are viewed as moving knife-edge diffraction screens the corresponding diffraction pattern is an expression in the time domain of the 2D spatial information of an equivalent interferometer, with all baselines sampled simultaneously.
