Scientific paper

Sodium emission fromthe zone of circumsolar sublimation of interplanetary dust was searched for during the total solar eclipse of March 29, 2006, using a Fabry-Perot interferometer and interference filter transmitting at 590 nm. The upper limit for the column density sodium atoms is 2 × 108 atoms/cm2, is based on the comparison with the atmospheric sodium emission. This result is compared with the brightness of the zodiacal light and F-corona, as well as the dust density directly measured onboard spacecraft.
