The Theory of the Chromospheric Spectrum
| Author | |
| Abstract |
The richness and variety of the emissions of the solar chromosphere, together with its complex geometric forms present a difficult problem for analysis. It is, therefore, hardly surprising that a thoroughly satisfying chromospheric model has not so far emerged from the various analytical attempts, though many of these have brought out very pertinent points on individual requirements on the model. Our purpose here is to present the theoretical bases for the analysis of the line spectrum of the chromosphere. In fact the presentation is more general than this may suggest; it should be as applicable to any glowing gas as to those in the solar chromosphere. |

The Physics Frontiers Centers (PFC) program supports university-based centers and institutes where the collective efforts of a larger group of individuals can enable transformational advances in the most promising research areas. The program is designed to foster major breakthroughs at the intellectual frontiers of physics by providing needed resources such as combinations of talents, skills, disciplines, and/or specialized infrastructure, not usually available to individual investigators or small groups, in an environment in which the collective efforts of the larger group can be shown to be seminal to promoting significant progress in the science and the education of students. PFCs also include creative, substantive activities aimed at enhancing education, broadening participation of traditionally underrepresented groups, and outreach to the scientific community and general public.
