...what it would be at a higher level. We have then two causes for the darkening of a spot : — first, the general absorption of the chromosphere, thicker here than elsewhere as the spot is a cavity, and secondly, the greater selective absorption of the lower sodium, barium, magnesium stratum, the... | |
