Diagnostics of the Velocity Field in the Lower Atmosphere of Solar Flares
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 12 April 2016
Abstract
Based on the analyses of Call K line profiles of 12 solar flares, the characteristics of the red asymmetry of Call K line are summarized. Non-LTE calculations indicated that a downward motion of plasma above the temperature minimum region (TMR) as well as a contracting motion of plasma toward TMR can well explain the red asymmetry observed at the Ki positions. The typical velocity is 10-30 km s−1. This result is consistent with the observations of metallic lines of solar flares.
