Scientific paper

Introduced are the data and analytical results of infrared spectral observations (10712 - 10972 Å) of the total solar eclipse of July 11, 1991 in Mexico. The surface brightness curve, derived from the continua of the extreme limb photosphere of flash spectra, has a dip at about 210 km inside the solar disk limb. The temperature at the bottom of the chromosphere is about 4425±26K. The flash spectra show that the He I 10803 line reaches a maximum of emission at about 1200 km beyond the photosphere. Spectra of the big prominence at the east limb indicate that it is a very weak prominence with an intensity of 2% - 5% of ordinary prominences. This prominence has a large turbulent velocity (about 30 km/sec) and a blueshift velocity along the light-of-sight (210±15 km/sec).
