The Liquid Metallic Hydrogen Model of the Sun and the Solar Atmosphere V. On the Nature of the Corona
The chromosphere is the site of weak emission lines characterizing the flash spectrum observed for a few seconds during a total eclipse. This layer of the solar atmosphere is known to possess an…

Non-Equilibrium Spectrum Formation Affecting Solar Irradiance
This is an overview of non-equilibrium aspects of the formation of solar continua and lines affecting the contributions by magnetic network and plage to spectrally resolved solar irradiance. After a…
3D Super Level non-LTE Radiative Transfer for Molecules
Non-local thermodynamic equilibrium (NLTE) effects are relevant in regions, where strong radiation fields dominate the level populations so that they can not be determined using Boltzmann statistics.…
A 3D radiative transfer framework - XI. Multi-level NLTE
Multi-level non-local thermodynamic equilibrium (NLTE) radiation transfer calculations have become standard throughout the stellar atmospheres community and are applied to all types of stars as well…
The Liquid Metallic Hydrogen Model of the Sun and the Solar Atmosphere I. Continuous Emission and Condensed Matter Within the Chromosphere
The K-corona, a significant portion of the solar atmosphere, displays a continuous spectrum which closely parallels photospheric emission, though without the presence of overlying Fraunhofer lines.…
Forty Lines of Evidence for Condensed Matter — The Sun on Trial: Liquid Metallic Hydrogen as a Solar Building Block
Our Sun has confronted humanity with overwhelming evidence that it is comprised of condensed matter. Dismissing this reality, the standard solar models continue to be anchored on the gaseous plasma.…
Commentary Relative to the Emission Spectrum of the Solar Atmosphere: Further Evidence for a Distinct Solar Surface
The chromosphere and corona of the Sun represent tenuous regions which are characterized by numerous optically thin emission lines in the ultraviolet and X-ray bands. When observed from the center of…
Chromospheric backradiation in ultraviolet continua and Hα
A recent paper states that ultraviolet backradiation from the solar transition region and upper chromosphere strongly affects the degree of ionization of minority stages at the top of the…
On the hydrogen recombination time in Type II supernova atmospheres
Non-local thermodynamic equilibrium radiative transfer calculations of differentially expanding supernovae atmospheres are computationally intensive and are almost universally performed in a…
