✦ Synopsis

We compare microphotometer intensity traces perpendicular to dispersion in simultaneous spectrograms of good spatial resolution traced at various A2's in each of the lines. Cross correlations between the different traces show the following: (a) For each A2~ there is a corresponding A2bl at which the coefficient of correlation, r, is a maximum, usually > 0.8. (b) No such high correlations are found between H and Hfl. (c) Comparison of traces in the continuum and at all observed A2's in K, H, bl, bz show a range of A2's in each line over which r is very significantly negative, while Hfl shows no such peculiarity.

Enhancement of the violet K2 emission peak results when the atmospheric layers at heights where Ka forms are moving downward with velocities of 10-20 km/sec or when the K2 layers and those immediately below are moving upward with velocities of 3-7 km/sec. Evidence favoring the former alternative is

Calculations are made for the center-limb variations of the K2 and Kz components of the solar Ca Ii K line using an optically thick model of the chromosphere. The center-limb variations are shown to require an increase of Doppler width with height in the chromosphere and to depend critically upon th
