✦ Synopsis

Line blanketing due to both the neutral and ionized metals is treated here by the modified picket-fence method and applied to the case of a homogeneous model solar photosphere in strict radiative equilibrium. Improvement in fitting the observed photospheric radiation field is noted over a model in which the line absorption coefficient is constant with depth.
