Paranthelia are rare parhelia-like spots a degree or so across that occur at the
solar altitude and at ±120° azimuth relative to the sun (Figure 5.9A). They are ...

Polarized Light in Nature
Sometimes the milky white parhelic circle and the paranthelia (fig. 27g, //and
plate 39) appear above the horizon at the same elevation as the sun. The
parhelic circle has the zenith as a central point and passes through the sun; the
paranthelia ...

In addition to the Sun, parhelia (mock suns), and anthelion on this circle, there
may also be two other uncolored spots of light at 60° azimuth to either side of the
anthelion—the paranthelia. The paranthelia may be visible more often than the ...

they meet with the least resistance, explained the anthelion by the aid of double ...

It is to be noticed that paranthelia, or parhelia, at a distance of 120° from the sun,
have been explained by two reflexions, internal or external,* from crystals of this
pointed form, and hence if the above explanation is correct, we should expect ...
