Abstract Several improvements have been made to the Mount Wilson Observatory solar magnetograph, including changes to the guider, the Doppler compensator, and the data-handling system. The improved magnetograph has been used for a new type of solar observation consisting of several hundred scans back and forth along a straight line of length 3/4 R 0 perpendicular to central meridian. The data reduction, which is done entirely with a computer, eliminates those effects which have their origin in the earth-sun geometry. The spatial and temporal properties of the 5-min oscillations are discussed.
