Abstract

The solar prominence radiation spectrum has been simulated in close H and K lines of ionized calcium and hydrogen line H convenient for processing in CCD observations. Equations of radiation transfer and statistical equilibrium in absence of LTE are solved for a model of homogeneous plane layer, taking into account the partial frequency redistribution for a 20-level continuum model of hydrogen atoms and a 5-level continuum model of calcium ions. The ratio of the integral intensities s = E(H Ca II)/E(H) and t = E(K)/E(H) Ca II is calculated for a model grid (pressure 0.001 < P < 1.0 dyn/cm^sup 2^, temperature 4000 < T < 20000 K). The s(T, P) and t(T, P) constructed diagnostic charts for solar prominences are obtained for the first time with allowance for the influence of the Ly[beta] line on the ionization of Ca II ions.[PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]
