摘要:

我们重新研究了一个50多年的问题,深中央反转预测强太阳谱线,在观测中看到的较小的反转。我们检查H I,Mg II和Ca II的共振线的数据和计算,其中形成的自反核在上层色球层。基于3D模拟以及数据的镁II线IRIS,我们认为,分辨率不在于在微观或宏观湍流限制的尺度上的速度场。宏观湍流被排除使用的光学细线形成在上层色球层的观察,并通过显示,它将需要有不合理的特殊属性,以占关键观测的镁II共振线从IRIS任务。因此,上层色球层的湍流强度可能比先前的分析所推断的要低得多。相反,在3D计算中,水平辐射转移产生更平滑的源函数,平滑波长和空间中的强度梯度。这些影响在更强的线中增加。我们的工作将产生的后果,了解发病的过渡区,在运动中的能量可用于加热日冕,并解释偏振数据的汉勒效应应用到共振线配置文件。

英文摘要:

We re-examine a 50+ year-old problem of deep central reversals predicted for strong solar spectral lines, in contrast to the smaller reversals seen in observations. We examine data and calculations for the resonance lines of H I, Mg II and Ca II, the self-reversed cores of which form in the upper chromosphere. Based on 3D simulations as well as data for the Mg II lines from IRIS, we argue that the resolution lies not in velocity fields on scales in either of the micro- or macro-turbulent limits. Macro-turbulence is ruled out using observations of optically thin lines formed in the upper chromosphere, and by showing that it would need to have unreasonably special properties to account for critical observations of the Mg II resonance lines from the IRIS mission. The power in turbulence in the upper chromosphere may therefore be substantially lower than earlier analyses have inferred. Instead, in 3D calculations horizontal radiative transfer produces smoother source functions, smoothing out intensity gradients in wavelength and in space. These effects increase in stronger lines. Our work will have consequences for understanding the onset of the transition region, the energy in motions available for heating the corona, and for the interpretation of polarization data in terms of the Hanle effect applied to resonance line profiles.
