Title: Formation depths of Fraunhofer lines
Authors: Gurtovenko, E. A.; Sheminova, V. A.
2015arXiv150500975G    Altcode:
  We have summed up our investigations performed in 1970--1993. The
  main task of this paper is clearly to show processes of formation
  of spectral lines as well as their distinction by validity and by
  location. For 503 photospheric lines of various chemical elements
  in the wavelength range 300--1000 nm we list in Table the average
  formation depths of the line depression and the line emission for the
  line centre and on the half-width of the line, the average formation
  depths of the continuum emission as well as the effective widths of the
  layer of the line depression formation. Dependence of average depths of
  line depression formation on excitation potential, equivalent widths,
  and central line depth are demonstrated by iron lines.

Title: Formation depth of Fraunhofer lines
Authors: Gurtovenko, E. A.; Sheminova, V. A.
1997MAO.....1P...3G    Altcode:
  We have summed up our investigations performed in 1970-1993 which
  were devoted to the problem of the effective depths of spectral
  absorption line formation. The main purpose of this paper is to show
  the difference in the effectiveness of the various physical processes
  responsible for the line absorption formation as well as to present
  Tables of line formation depths. The 503 photospheric lines of various
  chemical elements in the wavelength range 300-1000 nm were used for
  our calculations. We list in the Tables the formation depths of both
  depression and emission in line center and line half-width as well
  as the average formation depths of the continuum emission for the
  corresponding wavelengths. Additionally in the Tables, we give the
  effective widths of the formation region of each absorption line. The
  change of the average formation depths of iron lines in dependence on
  excitation potential, equivalent widths, and central line intensity
  are demonstrated on Figures.

1996R&QE...39..887B    Altcode:
  This paper presents the Big Horizonal Solar Telescope of the Main
  Astronomical Observatory of the Ukrainian National Academy of Sciences
  installed at the “Peak Terskol” high-altitude station near Elbrus
  (the main mirror diameter is 650 mm and the focal length is 17.5
  m). The telescope is equipped with a five-camera spectrograph intended
  for photographic spectral observations of active regions in the solar
  atmosphere and photoelectric measurements of the solar spectra with
  high spectral and spatial resolution. The observation procedure is
  described, and the results of the quality analysis of the recorded
  spectra and of the early measurements are presented.

Title: New absolute measurements of the solar spectrum 310 685 nm
Authors: Burlov-Vasiljev, K. A.; Gurtovenko, E. A.; Matvejev, Yu. B.
1995SoPh..157...51B    Altcode:
  During 1986-1989 at the high-altitude station on the Peak Terskol,
  Caucasus (h = 3000 m) absolute measurements of the solar disk-centre
  intensity were performed. The observations were carried out with the
  specialized solar telescope (D = 23 cm,F = 3 m) and grating spectrometer
  (F = 2 m, grating 140 × 150 mm, 600 grooves mm<SUP>−1</SUP>). The
  ribbon tungsten lamps used for absolute calibration were calibrated
  to the USSR standard of spectral intensity and were also compared with
  the irradiance standard of the PMO/WRC (Davos, Switzerland), with the
  lamps used in the Alma-Ata Observatory (Kazakhstan) and in Simferopol
  University for absolute measurements of stellar spectra. Methods
  and apparatus were improving step by step during 1985-1988. Special
  care was paid to the study of all possible sources of errors, in
  particular to the method of correction for atmospheric extinction, to
  polarization properties of optical elements of the apparatus, and to
  establishing the most reliable absolute calibration system. Finally,
  the observations performed during 1989 utilized only the refined
  methods and apparatus. As a result, the absolute integrals of the
  solar disk-centre intensity for 1-nm wide spectral bands in the
  range 310-685 nm are available. We estimate the total error is 2.5%
  at 310 nm and 2.1% at 680 nm. The absolute irradiance for 5-nm wide
  spectral bands is also obtained. We compare our results with results
  by Neckel and Labs (1984), with the irradiance filter measurements
  performed in PMO/WRC and calibration of the Sun's spectral irradiance
  to the stellar irradiance standard Vega by Lockwood (1992). Our
  results show a systematic difference with data by Neckel and Labs
  in the near-ultraviolet. The results by Neckel and Labs are probably
  underestimated in this spectral range by 8%.

Title: Fraunhofer spectrum and a system of solar oscillator strengths
Authors: Gurtovenko, Ernest A.; Kostyk, Roman I.
1989KiIND.........G    Altcode:
  Results of research concerned with the Fraunhofer spectrum of the sun
  and problems associated with this type of research are reviewed in
  a historical perspective. Solar dual-diffraction monochromators are
  described, and methods of observing the Fraunhofer spectrum with a
  high spectral resolution are discussed. Results of studies concerned
  with the development of solar oscillator forces, determined from the
  Fraunhofer lines, are reviewed. Oscillator force values are presented
  for 1958 spectral lines of 49 chemical elements in the wavelength
  range 303-996 nm.

Title: The solution of the transfer equation for absorption and the

1988AZh....65..653G    Altcode:

Title: On the possibility to improve the homogeneous photospheric
    model of the Sun.
Authors: Gurtovenko, E. A.; Sheminova, V. A.
1988KFNT....4...18G    Altcode:
  Modelling of differences of solar oscillator strengths derived from
  equivalent widths and central intensities with variations of nominal
  temperature of the photospheric model and characteristics of the
  photospheric velocity field has been made. The accuracy of determining
  chemical element abundances is evaluated by applying the specific
  uncertainties of the distribution of temperature and velocity field
  amplitude in the solar photosphere. The investigations of temperature
  and luminosity variations of the Sun from precise observations of
  Fraunhofer lines may bring fruitful results. The line symmetry of light
  elements with high excitation potential may serve as a "sensitive"
  indicator of physical inhomogeneity of solar and stellar atmospheres.

Title: Crossing Method for Studying the Turbulence in Solar and
    Stellar Atmospheres - Part One - Application to the Sun
Authors: Gurtovenko, E. A.; Sheminova, V. A.
1986SoPh..106..237G    Altcode:
  A new `crossing' method for the study of turbulent velocities
  in solar and stellar photospheres is considered. The method does
  not need knowledge of the abundance and oscillator strengths for
  determining the microturbulent velocity, if the macroturbulent
  velocity is adopted; or it allows investigation of the micro- and
  macro-velocities simultaneously, if the abundance and oscillator
  strengths are known. Using the crossing method for 200 lines of neutral
  iron we obtain microturbulent velocities for a large range of depths in
  the solar photosphere. The distribution of macroturbulent velocities
  with depth is also investigated. The total velocity field calculated
  from the obtained micro- and macro-velocities agrees with previous
  results from independent methods. This demonstrates the reliability
  of using the crossing method for separate determination of the micro-
  and macroturbulent velocities in solar and stellar atmospheres.

Title: Integral spectrum of the sun as a star in UV (0.1 - 0.32 μm)
    and IR (1 - 50 μm) regions.
Authors: Burlov-Vasilev, K. A.; Gurtovenko, E. A.; Troian, V. I.
1986KFNT....2....3B    Altcode:
  The measurements of the spectral energy distribution of the sun as a
  star in ultraviolet and infrared are reviewed. The standard distribution
  in UV is deduced from an analysis of the most important 11 series of
  independent observations of the 20th and 21st cycles. This distribution
  is shown to differ from the widely used Makarova and Kharitonov's set
  in UV, while for the IR region the set by Makarova and Kharitonov is
  at present the most reliable one.

Title: Scattered light in a spectrograph and its effect on the
    measured darkening to the solar limb.
Authors: Gurtovenko, E. A.; Osipov, S. N.
1986KFNT....2...59G    Altcode:
  The procedure of corrections of observed solar limb darkening for
  the influence of spectrograph scattered light is presented. The
  measurements of scattered light in the first order of diffraction
  carried out by three different methods agree well. With the chosen
  filters the corrections are shown to be insignificant for most of the
  region of the spectrum.

Title: The establishment of internally consistent solar scales of
    oscillatorstrengths and abundances of chemical elements. Zirconium.
Authors: Gurtovenko, E. A.; Kostyk, R. I.; Orlova, T. V.
1986KFNT....2...20G    Altcode:
  Oscillator strengths for 19 Zr I lines (r.m.s. error±0.078 dex) and
  10 Zr II lines (±0.081 dex) are determined from observed equivalent
  widths and central depths of solar Fraunhofer lines. The analysis of
  the differences of oscillator strengths derived from equivalent widths
  and from central depths leads to the conclusion that the lines under
  study have no essential hyperfine structure.

Title: On the difference in the depths of formation of the centers
    of weak Fraunhofer lines and the far wings of strong ones
Authors: Gurtovenko, E. A.; Sheminova, V. A.
1985AZh....62..988G    Altcode:
  The Voigt function H(a,v) influences the absorption coefficient of the
  centre and of the wing of a Fraunhofer line differently. The absorption
  coefficient of the line centre is K(0) ≡ N/Δλ<SUB>D</SUB>, and
  the one of the far wings is K(v) ≡ Nγ. Here N is the concentration
  of absorbing atoms, Δλ<SUB>D</SUB> is the Doppler width, γ is the
  damping-broadening constant, sharply increasing downward into the
  photosphere. Due to this, the effective depths of formation of far
  wings of strong lines are larger than those of weak lines having the
  same atomic parameters.

  The significance of the work on the establishment of the solar gf-scales
  for the Fraunhofer lines of the elements of the iron group is evaluated
  in general, and the results of the work are summed up. The information
  on the number of lines investigated is given as well as on the number
  of corresponding publications. The comparison of the solar gf-scales
  with the highest precision values of the oscillator strengths for
  selected lines obtained in Oxford gives the r.m.s. internal error of
  the solar gf-scales ≤0.07 dex.

Authors: Gurtovenko, E. A.; Sheminova, V. A.; Rutten, R. J.
1985AZh....62..124G    Altcode:
  The weak Fraunhofer lines in the near wings of H, K Ca II lines have
  been analysed to study the velocity amplitude of the general velocity
  field in the middle and outer photospheric layers. The results
  confirm the basic well-known data on the velocity amplitude in the
  middle photospheric layers. Besides, it is shown that the radial and
  tangential components of the velocity amplitude continue to decrease
  with height also in the outer photosphere.

Title: Construction of internally consistent scales of solar

    of CO I oscillator strengths from the equivalent widths of Fraunhofer

Authors: Gurtovenko, E. A.; Kostik, R. I.; Orlova, T. V.
1983AZh....60..758G    Altcode:
  The authors use the observed equivalent widths of 50 Co I lines and
  cobalt abundance lg A = 4.98 to derive the oscillator strengths (gf)
  of these lines. In addition, for 14 lines from the total list the
  oscillator strengths (gf<SUB>HFS</SUB>) were obtained with accounting
  for their hyperfine structure. Clear dependences of the difference lg
  gf - lg gf<SUB>HFS</SUB> on equivalent width and excitation potential
  are revealed. Using these dependences, the authors have corrected all
  the oscillator strengths obtained without accounting for the hyperfine
  structure.

Authors: Gurtovenko, E. A.; Kostik, R. I.
1982A&AS...47..193G    Altcode:
  Oscillator strengths for 360 selected Fraunhofer lines were determined
  using the observed equivalent widths of those lines. The R.M.S. error
  of the gf-values obtained amounts to 0.06-0.07 dex. The comparison
  of oscillator strengths calculated from equivalent widths (w) and
  central intensity (d) shows the reliability of the methods used and
  of the underlaying data. The systematic increase of the difference log
  gf<SUB>W</SUB> - log gf<SUB>d</SUB> for strong lines of high excitation
  potential is noticeable.

Title: On the establishment of internally consistent solar
    scales of oscillator strengths and abundances of chemical
    elements. I. Oscillator strengths for 865 FeI lines iron abundance.
Authors: Gurtovenko, E. A.; Kostik, R. I.
1981A&AS...46..239G    Altcode:
  A method is developed for the establishment of internally consistent
  scales for solar abundances and oscillator strengths and used to deduce
  the solar iron abundance and the oscillator strengths for 865 Fe I
  lines. The method involves the calculation of L, defined as the product
  of the abundance with the oscillator strength, which can be inferred
  from the line profiles, equivalent widths, central intensities and
  the entire Fraunhofer spectrum of the specific chemical element. In
  the iron study, abundance and oscillator strengths are derived from
  unblended central intensities of lines in the region 4000-8000 A taking
  into account the influence of macroturbulence velocities. An average
  iron abundance of 7.525 + or - 0.007 is obtained from 266 weak and
  moderately strong lines appearing in the oscillator strength scale of
  May et al. (1974). The obtained abundance was then used to calculate
  the oscillation strengths of all 612 weak and moderate Fe I lines and
  the remaining strong lines to within + or - 0.035 dex.

Title: On the Establishment of Internally Consistent Solar Scales of
    Oscillator Strengths and Abundances of Chemical Elements - Part Two -
    on the Errors of the Oscillator Strengths of FEI Lines in the Kurucz
Authors: Gurtovenko, E. A.; Kostik, R. I.
1981A&A...101..132G    Altcode:
  It is shown that the errors on the oscillator strengths of the
  Kurucz-Peytremann gf-scale depend in a regular way upon the excitation
  potential and gf-value. Oscillator strengths with small values
  of gf and large excitation potentials are underestimated, and vice
  versa. Especially strong underestimations (by ≍2 orders of magnitude)
  of the oscillator strengths take place for the lines with excitation
  potentials EPL &gt; 4 eV and oscillator strengths log gf &lt; -4.0.

Title: The abundance of titanium in the solar photosphere
Authors: Gurtovenko, E. A.; Fedorchenko, G. L.; Sheminova, V. A.
1981AAfz...43...59G    Altcode:
  The abundance of titanium in the solar photosphere is determined from
  equivalent widths of 38 weak Fraunhofer lines of TiI. The oscillator
  strengths scale of Kurucz and Peytremann (1975) is used to obtain
  log(NTi/NH), + 12 = 4.95 + or - 0.05. The results are compared to other
  recent investigations, from which it is concluded that the oscillator
  strength system of Kurucz and Peytremann presents significant systematic
  errors, and must therefore be studied in detail, using a large number
  of lines for a wide range of equivalent widths.

  semiempirical gf values, tabulated by Kurucz and Peytremann (1975)
  are used in the calculations. A mean value of 7.82 plus or minus 0.05
  is obtained for the abundance of iron.

Title: Complex investigation of the 'microturbulent' velocity and
    damping constant in the solar photosphere. I - Introductory review
Authors: Gurtovenko, E. A.
1979AAfz...37...12G    Altcode:
  In the present paper, one-component (homogeneous) photospheric
  models are applied to the analysis of the microturbulent velocity
  and attenuation constant, each of which has a pronounced effect on
  the Fraunhofer line profiles and equivalent line widths. A close
  relationship between the microturbulence and attenuation constant is
  established. It is recommended to determine the value of microturbulence
  solely from the equivalent absorption line widths.

1978SoPh...58..241G    Altcode:
  The effective depths of formation of some typical Fraunhofer lines,
  calculated by the methods suggested by Gurtovenko et al. (1974),
  Beckers and Milkey (1975), and Makita (1977) are compared.

Title: The effective depths of formation of weak Fraunhofer lines. I.
Authors: Sheminova, V. A.; Gurtovenko, E. A.
1978AAfz...36...21S    Altcode:
  Previous work on the determination of effective formation depths of weak
  Fraunhofer lines is reviewed. It is shown that the effective depths
  of weak lines computed from the Unsoeld-Pecker contribution function
  correspond to the depths at which fluctuations in the parameters
  that determine the line absorption factor have the greatest effect
  on variations in the observed profile of an absorption line. Formulas
  are given for calculating the effective formation depths of weak lines
  of various atoms and ions in the solar photosphere. Numerical results
  are presented for C I, N I, O I, Mg I and II, Si I and II, S I, Ca I
  and II, Sc I and II, Ti I and II, V I, Cr I and II, Fe I and II, Co I,
  Ni I, and Zn I and II.

Title: Comparison of the profiles of weak Fraunhofer lines with the
    profile of the absorption coefficient.
Authors: Gurtovenko, E. A.; Ratnikova, V. A.
1977AAfz...32....3G    Altcode:
  Optical and geometric depths relative to 5000 A are calculated for three
  Fe I lines with the same excitation potential and different intensities:
  6097 A (central intensity of 2.9%), 6392 A (central intensity of 18.8%),
  and 6240 A (central intensity of 50.4%). The results show that the
  depths at which the absorption-coefficient profile is close to the
  line profile are not greater than the limits of the layer determining
  the main region of absorption-line formation for lines with central
  depressions of less than 25% to 30%.

Title: The general photospheric velocity field.
Authors: Gurtovenko, E. A.
1976AAfz...28...93G    Altcode:
  The radial and tangential components of the general photospheric
  velocity field obtained by a variety of authors are compared. Fairly
  good correlation between results obtained by different methods from
  different observational material was found. A sharp growth of both
  components with increasing depth was found in the layers of the
  photosphere in which the absorption lines used in the investigation
  are formed. Expressions governing the change of the radial and
  tangential components with depth are derived on the basis of the
  results of averaging the weighted data reported by the different
  authors considered.

Title: Study of microturbulence from equivalent widths of moderate
    and moderately strong Fe I lines.
Authors: Gurtovenko, E. A.; Ratnikova, V. A.
1976AAfz...30...14G    Altcode:
  Equivalent widths of 25 weak and moderately strong Fe I Fraunhofer
  lines are analyzed using data from center-limb observations of the
  solar disk. An iron abundance with a logarithm of 7.04 is derived from
  the weak lines. Microturbulent velocity fields are investigated by
  employing the abundance values derived from moderately strong lines. A
  model of quasi-isotropic microturbulent velocity smoothly increasing
  with height from 0.6 km/s to 1.5 km/s (mean value, 1.1 km/s) over
  the depth range between 100 and 600 km is obtained for a specified
  photospheric model. It is concluded that microturbulent velocity can
  be determined only by analyzing absolute values of equivalent line
  widths and that the microturbulent-velocity model can be improved by
  analyzing lines formed at different depths.

Title: The Total Photospheric Motion Field
Authors: Gurtovenko, E. A.
1975SoPh...45...25G    Altcode:
  Brief consideration is given to the conception of the total photospheric
  motion field. A synthesis of the most thorough investigations is made
  and the radial (V<SUP>rad</SUP>) and tangential (V<SUP>tg</SUP>)
  components of the velocity amplitude of the total photospheric
  motion field are deduced. At depth logτ<SUB>5</SUB> = −3.0
  V<SUP>rad</SUP> and V<SUP>tg</SUP> have average values of 1.2
  and 1.7 km s<SUP>−1</SUP> respectively. They increase smoothly
  with depth and reach their maximum values of V<SUP>rad</SUP>=3.0,
  V<SUP>tg</SUP>=3.4 km s<SUP>−1</SUP> at depths logτ<SUB>5</SUB>=
  −0.2 and logτ<SUB>5</SUB> = +0.4 respectively. In the deep
  photospheric layers both components seem to decrease with depth.

Authors: Gurtovenko, E. A.; Ratnikova, V. A.

  Using an electronic digital computer, the average depth of the formation
  of weak Fraunhofer lines is calculated. A dependence of these depths
  on the lower-level excitation potential is evident. The average optical
  depth of the formation of weak absorption lines is determined mainly by
  the excitation potential of the lower level. The larger the excitation
  potential, the deeper is the formation of the absorption band. The
  average depths depend also on such factors as the ionization potentials
  of the neutral atom and iron, and on the partition functions. The joint
  effect of these parameters can be different for lines of various atoms
  and ions. A graph for some atoms and ions showing the dependences of
  the average optical depth on the excitation potentials is included.

1975KiIND....Q....G    Altcode:
  The profiles of 98 Fraunhofer lines are tabulated for five positions
  (cos theta equals 1.00, 0.80, 0.60, 0.44, and 0.28) on the disk of
  the quiet sun. The data are based primarily on observations in the

Title: Variation in the centre-limb profiles of weak Fraunhofer

Authors: Gurtovenko, E. A.
1974STIN...7528996G    Altcode:
  The observations were performed using a double-solar monochromator. The
  asymmetry of very weak lines was found to be highly varied, which may
  be associated with the superfine structure. Results are in accord with
  the theoretical interpretation of the asymmetry of traveling sonic
  waves. Observations of the same lines on different dates indicate
  a possible change in asymmetry with time. The turbulence velocities
  calculated from the widths of certain elements exhibit considerable
  diversity. The lines of the light elements S, Si, and N appear to be
  very wide. The effect of superfine and isotopic structure is shown to
  change to a marked degree the form and width of the profiles of many
  Fraunhofer lines.

Authors: Gurtovenko, E.; Ratnikova, V.; De Jager, C.
1974SoPh...37...43G    Altcode:
  Methods for the determination of the average optical depth of formation
  of weak Fraunhofer lines are compared, and their relative merits are
  discussed. Distinction should be made between the region of origin
  of the emergent radiation, and of the line depression. For weak or
  fairly weak lines the average optical depth of formation of the line
  depression is the relevant quantity; it should be determined by using
  a computational scheme based on the classical weighting functions
  of line formation; other methods give physically unsignificant or
  conflicting results.

1971SoPh...21..325G    Altcode:
  The spectrum of the solar corona obtained during the eclipse of 7 March,
  1970 has been studied. From the analysis of the line halfwidths it is
  concluded that the emission of coronal lines of various groups arises
  in different volumes of the corona. The lines λ5303 and λ4231 are
  analyzed in detail and by the use of the equations of excitation
  and ionization balance. The distribution of electron temperature
  T<SUB>e</SUB> and density n<SUB>e</SUB> vs height in the solar corona
  has been found. The usually adopted n<SUB>e</SUB> and T<SUB>e</SUB> are
  noticeably less than those values obtained in present analysis. This
  discrepancy may be due to the fact that the considered area of the
  corona seems to be in an unusual condition.

1971SoPh...20..264G    Altcode:
  The Goldberg-Unno method is analysed. Accounting for the instrumental
  profile correction reduces the derived microturbulent velocities
  only slightly. A similar effect may be caused by an unresolved
  macroturbulence. The method of accounting for the damping effect is
  considered. The correction for the influence of the damping effect
  does not change substantially the general trend of the variation
  of ξ<SUB>t</SUB> with τ<SUB>0</SUB>. The microturbulent velocity
  ξ<SUB>t</SUB> is reduced appreciably.

  have been analyzed. It is shown that the observed emission can only
  be located on the solar surface. Some aspects of the problem are
