Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Corona around moon or sun resulted from light diffracted by waterdrops in the clouds. Each drop diffracted the light in the surface of a cone. From each cone a person only views the light which reaches his eye. As all cones have the same opening angle, the light one sees seems to come from a ring. So coronae have the form of rings around the moon.

This diagram image could be re-created using vector graphics as an SVG file. This has several advantages; see Commons:Media for cleanup for more information. If an SVG form of this image is available, please upload it and afterwards replace this template with {{vector version available|new image name}}.


It is recommended to name the SVG file “Visibility of corona rings 2D.svg”—then the template Vector version available (or Vva) does not need the new image name parameter.
