Abstract Radio emission of the quiet Sun is considered to be due to thermal bremsstrahlung emission of the hot solar atmosphere. The properties of the quiet Sun in the microwave band have been well studied, and they can be well described by the spectrum of bremsstrahlung emission. In the meter-wave and decameter-wave bands, properties of the quiet Sun have rarely been studied due to the instrumental limitations. In this work, we use the LOw Frequency ARray telescope to perform high quality interferometric imaging spectroscopy observations of quiet Sun coronal emission at frequencies below 90 MHz. We present the brightness temperature spectrum and the size of the Sun in the frequency range of 20–80 MHz. We report on dark coronal regions with low brightness temperatures that persist with frequency. The brightness temperature spectrum of the quiet Sun is discussed and compared with the bremsstrahlung emission of a coronal model and previous quiet Sun observations.
