coronal

Relating to crowns

Coronal relates to a corona or crown.

In anatomy, the coronal plane divides the body into front and back sections, and the coronal suture runs across the top of the skull where bones meet.

In astronomy, coronal describes features of the sun's corona—its outer atmosphere visible during eclipses: coronal mass ejections.

A coronal can also be a crown or wreath worn on the head.
