Line-intensities in the photosphere-chromosphere transition region
1973
We present results from eclipse spectra in the wavelength region 4588–4682 A, taken during the eclipse of February 15, 1961 at Brac, Yugoslavia. Absolute line intensities have been determined in the photosphere-chromosphere transition region. The method of reduction is discussed in Section 2 and the observed variation of the total intensity as a function of the height is shown for a number of lines in Figures 5–8. The results for the Fe i lines are compared with computations (as described in Paper I: van Dessel, 1970) for various solar model atmospheres (Section 4). The model, which combines Holweger's (1967) temperature distribution for the excitation temperature with the HSRA model (Gingerich et al., 1971) for the electron temperature, yields a better agreement than all pure LTE-models.
