The suspicion of Elste (1990), that telescopic stray light together with imperfect collimation of telescope and spectrograph could be a possible explanation for the systematic differences and variations found by Neckel and Labs (1987) in many limb-darkening scans, proves to be unfounded for the foll

We report high resolution measurements of the center-to-limb variation of the MgI line at 4571.1 N. This forbidden line is of interest because it should be formed in LTE. Comparison of our measurements with the Harvard-Smithsonian Reference Atmosphere show that the line center radiation originates i
Absolute continuum intensities and wavelength-dependent low-order polynomial fits to optical and infrared continuum limb darkening provide useful discriminants among single-component models of the solar photosphere. The thermal structure in best quantitative agreement with the recent center-limb mea
