This paper studies two properties of chromospheric spicules: their angular distribution and the plasma velocity along their axes. To investigate the first property, we measured the apparent tilt of spicules at the limb, and then computed their actual distribution in space. This was achieved by solvi
From improved spicule filtergrams obtained with the Sacramento Peak vacuum telescope we measured some spicule properties. The spicule diameter of 950 km was well resolved. A small decrease of diameter with height was observed confirming older observations. The expansion of the spicule was found to b
## Abstract A synchrotron radiation fiber diffraction structural study of the axial filament of siliceous spicules from two species of marine sponges (the Demosponge __Geodia cydonium__ and the Hexactinellid __Scolymastra joubini__) was carried out. The sharpness of the spots in the diffraction pat
