MODELING THE QUANTUM INTERFERENCE SIGNATURES OF THE Ba II D24554 Å LINE IN THE SECOND SOLAR SPECTRUM

Abstract: Quantum interference effects play a vital role in shaping the linear polarization profiles of solar spectral lines. The Ba ii D 2 line at 4554Å is a prominent example, where the F -state interference effects due to the odd isotopes produce polarization profiles, which are very different from those of the even isotopes that have no F -state interference. It is therefore necessary to account for the contributions from the different isotopes to understand the observed linear polarization profiles of this line. He… Show more

“…Instead, Belluzzi & Trujillo Bueno (2013) for Na i and Anusha et al (2010) for Ca i resonance line, apply the M CO (also known as FAL-X) atmosphere model of Avrett (1995). Smitha et al (2013), who study Ba ii resonance line, elaborated on an even cooler atmosphere model than FAL-X. The FAL-X atmosphere model, already known to "give a good fit to the full range of mean CO line profiles, but conflic[ting] with other observations of average quiet regions" (Avrett 1995), is characterized by the fact that the temperature minimum occurs much higher than in VAL-C, at about 1000 km for FAL-X instead of 500 km for VAL-C.…”
