Variation in Solar Limb Darkening Coefficient Estimated from Solar Images Taken by SOHO and SDO

The sun is not equally bright over the whole sphere, but rather is darkened toward the limb. This effect is well-known as limb darkening. The limb darkening coefficient is defined by the ratio of the center intensity to limb intensity. In this study, we calculate the limb darkening coefficient usi...
