The calculation of coronal magnetic fields was first suggested by Gold (1958). Altschuler and Newkirk (1969) and Newkirk et al. (1968) used a Legendre polynomial fit to the photospheric observations of magnetic fields whereas Schatten (1968) with Wilcox and Ness (Schatten et al., 1969) use a magnetic monopole fit, first incorporated by Schmidt (1964).
