contents In multiagent systems, effective coordination, coverage, and communication often rely on the concept of visibility between agents or nodes within the system. Graph-theoretically, for any subset $X$ of vertices of a graph $G$, two vertices are said to be $X$-visible if there exists a shortest path between them that contains no vertex of $X$ as an internal vertex. In this paper, we investigate the visibility polynomial associated with the corona product of two graphs. The visibility polynomial encodes the number of mutual-visibility sets of all orders within a graph, and the process of enumerating these sets provides a deeper understanding of their structural properties. We characterize the structure of mutual-visibility sets arising specifically within the corona product. As part of this study, we introduce the notion of $C_Q$-visible sets, defined with respect to a selected subset $Q$ of vertices in a graph $G$. A $C_Q$-visible set is a collection of vertices in $\overline{Q}$ that is not only $Q$-visible, but also individually visible from each vertex in $Q$. Using this concept, we establish several characterizations and properties of mutual-visibility sets within the corona product, thereby providing deeper insights into their structure and behavior.
