Scientific paper

New photoelectric measurements of the solar center-to-limb variation (CLV) in the continuum at 5011.5 A have been performed to verify the brightness asymmetry reported by Wittman (1978). The N-S asymmetry found in the 1976 data also appears in the 1977 data. In addition, an E-W asymmetry of about the same magnitude is observed whose existence with time implies a low probability for a solar origin of both asymmetries. From a total of 2304 CLV scans, the average CLV, including the limb intensity profile, has been determined with considerable accuracy.
