We study the time evolution of a layer of the middle or lower chromosphere being heated by a stream of energetic particles during a solar flare. The region, which is not in LTE, is allowed to cool by the transfer of Lyman continuum radiation, with collisional as well as radiative processes being con
Non-steady state and non-LTE effects on the ionisation equilibrium of hydrogen in optical flares are considered in terms of a two-level hydrogen atom. It is shown that, just as in the quiet low chromosphere, the ionisation equation is controlled by spontaneous recombination to the second level and b
