non-LTE ゼミ 論文紹介「 The formation of the Hα line in the solar chromosphere 」 ① T. Anan
abstruct Radiation-MHD simulation + 3D non-LTE radiative transfer computation => Hα – Statistical equilibrium – Complete frequency redistribution – Non-equilibrium ionization of hydrogen We find – 3D radiative transfer is essential in modeling Hα – Hα opacity is mainly sensitive mass density – Hα core intensity is correlated with the average formation height – The line-core width is a measure of the gas temperature – Fibril-like structure Formation height Simulated results are very similar to observed one without the need for additional microturbilance
