✦ Synopsis

The rotation of the solar corona has been studied using recurrence properties of the green coronal line (5303 A,) for the interval 1947-1970. Short-lived coronal activity is found to show the same differential rotation as short-lived photospheric magnetic field features. Long-lived recurrences show rigid rotation in the latitude interval i 57?5. It is proposed that at least part of the variability of rotational properties of the solar atmosphere may be understood as a consequence of coexistence of differential and rigid solar rotation. * On leave from Torino University, Italy, as an ESRO-NASA Fellow.
