This data set consists of 35mm images of the solar corona on 100-ft reels, made by transferring the digital output of the C/P vidicon array (levels 0-255) to film with a Dicomed recorder. Two of the instrument's filters were used to make the digital images, a green broadband filter (5000-5305 A) and an H-alpha filter (6543-6583 A). Pairs of sequential images made with each of these two filters are found in chronological order on the reels. In using this data set, reference should be made to the following users' guide documents: "Guide to 1980 SMM Coronagraph/Polarimeter 35mm Images"; "C/P Data Analysis Guide."
