It is produced by the refraction of light through the 90° prisms of ice crystals, having entered through the horizontal bases and passed out through the vertical sides. Normally, the crystals are large, oriented, hexagonal plates. The circumzenithal arc is the high sky counterpart of the circumhorizontal arc. The circumhorizontal arc is low in the sky when the sun is high (above 58° elevation); the circumzenithal arc is high in the sky when the sun is low (below 32° elevation). The majority of circumzenithal arcs are short-lived, short in length and faint or moderately bright. However, very colorful circumhorizontal arcs can occur when the refraction is close to the minimum angle of deviation, corresponding to a solar elevation angle of about 22°. 3, record 12, English, - circumzenithal%20arc

L'arc circumzénithal est moins fréquent, car il n’ apparaît que si la hauteur du soleil au-dessus de l'horizon est inférieure à 32, 2 degrés. Cet arc est formé quand la lumière solaire entre dans le cristal par la face horizontale supérieure et en ressort par une face latérale verticale. Quand le soleil est au-dessus de 32, 2 degrés, la lumière est entièrement réfléchie à l'intérieur du cristal; c'est pourquoi on ne voit cet arc que lorsque le Soleil est relativement bas sur l'horizon. À 32, 2 degrés, la lumière ressort du cristal verticalement vers le bas; on verra alors l'arc circumzénithal comme un point éclatant au zénith. À mesure que le soleil descend(se couche), le point se déploie pour former un arc de cercle coloré et centré au zénith face au soleil. Pour être bien technique, lorsque le soleil est à 22, 1 degrés, l'éclat de l'arc est à son maximum et il est tangent au grand halo. 3, record 12, French, - arc%20circumz%C3%A9nithal

Predominantly green colouration of short duration, often in the form of a flash, seen at the extreme upper edge of a luminary (Sun, Moon, or even a planet) when disappearing below or appearing above the horizon. 2, record 13, English, - green%20flash

When the sun sets, sometimes the last bit of light from the disk itself is an emerald green. The same is true of the first bit of light from the rising sun. This phenomenon is known as the "green flash" or "green ray". It is not an optical illusion. The green flash is common and will be visible any time the sun is rises or sets on a "clear", "unobstructed", and "low" horizon. ... The explanation for the green flash is thus, 1) refraction separates the solar images by color; 2) at just the right instant, the red image has set, 3) the yellow image is absorbed; and 4) the blue image is scattered away. We are left with the upper limb of the green image. Because the green flash is primarily a refraction effect, it lasts longer and is easier to see from a mountain top than from sea level. 3, record 13, English, - green%20flash

Coloration à dominante verte et de courte durée, souvent sous forme d’un éclat bref, observée au moment ou l’extrême bord supérieur d’un astre (Soleil, Lune ou même une planète) disparaît derrière l’horizon ou apparaît au-dessus de l’horizon. 2, record 13, French, - rayon%20vert

Qu'est-ce que le rayon vert [...] juste avant le coucher du soleil, [...] ce fugace rayon vert émeraude [...] apparaît, et disparaît presque aussi soudainement, lorsque le bord supérieur du disque solaire effleure l'horizon juste avant de se coucher. Cette petite tache lumineuse dure à peine quelques secondes. Plus précisément, 1, 8 sec à l'équateur, 2, 5 sec à une latitude de 45 degrés. Ce phénomène de réfraction, qui ne se produit que lorsque l'atmosphère est extrêmement pure et qu'il y a très peu de particules pouvant créer de la diffraction ou dispersion, apparaît très rarement au lever ou au coucher du soleil. Comment cela se passe-t-il? La réfraction du Soleil par l'atmosphère crée un spectre vertical. Au fur et à mesure que le soleil descend sous l'horizon, les couleurs spectrales disparaissent une à une à commencer par le rouge, l'orangé, puis le jaune. Quand ces 3 couleurs sont disparues, quelques fois, à peine le temps d’un éclair, la seule couleur qui reste visible est le vert. 3, record 13, French, - rayon%20vert
