The Doppler Widths of Solar Absorption Lines: Smithsonian Contributions to Astrophysics, V3, No. 5

""The Doppler Widths of Solar Absorption Lines"" is a scientific research paper published in Smithsonian Contributions to Astrophysics, Volume 3, Number 5. The paper is authored by Barbara Bell and focuses on the study of the Doppler widths of solar absorption lines. The study aims to provide a better understanding of the physical processes that occur in the Sun's atmosphere by analyzing the spectral lines produced by the absorption of radiation. The paper presents the results of a detailed analysis of the Doppler widths of these lines, which are found to be influenced by a variety of factors, including temperature, pressure, and magnetic fields. The research is based on observations made using the McMath-Pierce Solar Telescope at Kitt Peak National Observatory in Arizona. The paper provides a valuable contribution to the field of solar physics and is of interest to researchers and scientists working in this area.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
