Experimental estimation of the luminosity of the Sun
We determine the solar constant experimentally using two independent techniques that allow us to study the dependence of the solar irradiation on the zenith angle and the characteristics of the light extinction in the atmosphere. Our result for the solar luminosity agrees within 7% of the accepted v...
