THE DETERMINATION OF THE OPTICAL DEPTH OF GRAINS OF CONTINUOUS EMISSION IN SOLAR FACULAE,

Abstract

The weakening of continuous emission in the wings of strong H and K lines of Ca was used for determining the optical depth (in the frequency of the continuous spectrum) of the grains of con tinuous emission. For 7 investigated grains it was found to vary from tau 0 to tau 1.0. It is shown that the rise and fall in the wings of H and K in the grains in comparison to the undisturbed photosphere can be explained by the influence of continuous emission at different depths.
