Topography on the moon during a solar eclipse. Some craters are lower, some hills are taller...depending on how it all lines up at the time of the eclipse, if there happens to be a low spot (compared to the surrounding elevation), more light gets through and causes 'the diamond ring' effect or 'bailey's beads effect'.

What of the sun can you see most easily during the solar eclipses?
During a solar eclipse, the outer atmosphere of the sun, known as the solar corona, becomes visible. This is the pearly white, outermost layer of the sun's atmosphere. It is best seen during a total solar eclipse when the moon completely blocks out the main body of the sun.
What effect does the formation of negative hydrogen ions in the sun's photosphere have on solar observations?
The formation of negative hydrogen ions in the sun's photosphere can impact solar observations by affecting the opacity of the solar atmosphere. This can alter the intensity and spectral lines of sunlight observed from the sun's surface. Additionally, it can influence the temperature structure and energy balance of the sun's outer layers.
How often does an annular eclipse occur?
Annular solar eclipses occur when the moon is too far away from earth to completely cover the face of the sun, leaving a thin 'ring' of uncovered sun around the edge of the moon. This is different from a partial eclipse in which the moon does not align with the sun in such a way that the sun is completely blocked. Annular eclipses would occur only when the moon is at or near apogee, its farthest approach to earth. A+: when the moon is at apogee
What is the round glare that sometimes peaks around the moon just before the sun is completely blocked during a total solar eclipse?
Diamond Ring Effect
Why do partial solar eclipses occur more than total solar eclipses?
There are 4 types of solar eclipse. Total, Hybrid, Annular and Partial eclipses.A Total Eclipse is when the sun totally covers the sun.An Annular Eclipse is when the whole moon is in line with the sun but the apparent diameter of the moon is less than the apparent diameter of the sun.A Hybrid Eclipse is when some places on Earth experience a annular eclipse and other places see a total eclipse.A Partial Eclipse is when the moon is not totally in line with the sun and only eclipses part of the sun.
What is the diamond ring effect?
The diamond ring effect is a feature of total solar eclipses. Just before the sun disappears or just after it emerges from behind themoon, the rugged lunar limb topography allows beads of sunlight to shine through. This effect is called Baily's beads, in honour of Francis Baily who first noted the phenomenon in 1836.

During a solar eclipse, the outer atmosphere of the sun, known as the solar corona, becomes visible. This is the pearly white, outermost layer of the sun's atmosphere. It is best seen during a total solar eclipse when the moon completely blocks out the main body of the sun.
Why are solar eclipse less common then patial solar eclipse?
I presume you are asking why Total Solar Eclipses are less common than Partial Solar Eclipses. The reason for this is that the moon's shadow does not completely cover the Earth when eclipsing the sun. It covers just a a narrow corridor across the Earth's surface. This mean's that when there is a total solar eclipse, you have to be in the right place at the right time on earth to see it. Whereas a much wider area of Earth will only witness a partial eclipse during the event. The moon also sometimes is slightly further away from the Earth during some solar eclipses (due to it's slightly elliptical orbit). The moon will look slightly smaller than the sun and this results in an Annular Solar Eclipse where the outer edges of the sun manage to shine around the moon creating a 'ring' effect. Annular solar eclipses are slghtly more common than Total Solar Eclipses. Partial Solar Eclipses are the most common in any one place on Earth.
The layer of the solar atmosphere directly above the photosphere is referred to as the?
chromosphere. It is a thin layer of the sun's atmosphere located directly above the photosphere. The chromosphere is visible during solar eclipses as a reddish ring around the sun.

When was This Diamond Ring created?
The diamond ring in question was made in January 1965.

What are facts about solar eclipses?
The longest duration of a full solar eclipse is about 7.5 minutesA full eclipse occurs only about once every 10 years.There are total eclipses where the entire face of the sun is blocked by the moon, and there are annular eclipses where the apparent image of the moon is not large enough to cover the entire face of the moon; instead an actual ring of exposed sun shows around the moon. This is distinct from a partial eclipse.A time is coming in the distant future when there will be no more total eclipses; the moon will be far enough away that its image will never totally block the sun.
What does pt 19 means on a diamond ring?
what does pt mean on diamond ring
What are the two main types of eclipses?
There are eclipses of the sun (solar), and eclipses of the moon (lunar). At different places on the Earth, each of those may be total or partial. Sometimes only a partial eclipse is visible anywhere.
Should you buy a diamond ring or a crystal ring on a wedding?
Maybe the crystal ring is better... or a diamond ring: which ever you prefer or the bride prefers.
How would solar eclipses be different if the moon were twice as far from the earth?
At that time, total solar eclipses will not happen; they will be a thing of the past. That time is coming; the moon is very slowly moving farther and farther from earth. There would be no Total Solar eclipse if the moon were twice as far from the earth, the reason is that the earth would never fall in the umbra, which is the place where sunlight is completely blocked. Even to this day only a small portion of our earth will ever get to see a total solar eclipse. however a very small portion of earth located right behind the shadow will see a annular solar eclipse, in which a ring of sunlight surrounds the disk of the moon. The ring would be much bigger if the moon was twice the distance.
