✦ Synopsis


Spectra of several strong lines of sunspots have been obtained with the Echelle spectrograph at the Vacuum Tower Telescope, Sacramento Peak Observatory. With a variety of model atmospheres, Ca II H, K, and 28498 line profiles were calculated using a non-LTE line formation procedure.

In the present study we examined only a specific part of the sunspot umbra which is thought to be coolest over the spot. An optimum model representing such a region is presented and its physical properties are discussed.

By means of an inversion of H and K Ca II line profiles the temperature and electron density in the chromosphere above the umbrae of two sunspots have been estimated. The temperature gradient 5 K km -1 exceeds the corresponding values in both quiet regions and plages. At a height of about 1500 km th
