AbstractWe demonstrate how the angle-dependent redistribution function can be incorporated into the 2-D transfer modelling of solar prominences. Some preliminary numerical simulations have been performed and we present their results by comparing the emergent hydrogen Lα line profiles computed with the angle-averaged and angle-dependent redistributions.

AbstractWe have improved previous model calculations of the prominence-corona transition region including the effect of the ambipolar diffusion in the statistical equilibrium and energy balance equations. We show its influence on the different parameters that characterize the resulting prominence theoretical structure. We take into account the effect of the partial frequency redistribution (PRD) in the line profiles and total intensities calculations.

The effect of partial frequency redistribution in the formation of Lyman α in the chromosphere has been discussed by Milkey and Mihalas (1973) and others, and it has been shown that in this case the coherency of scattering in the wings of the line substantially influences the line profile. Although there are non-negligible sources for La photons within a prominence, a large fraction of the emergent line photons are due to scattering of photons incident on the surface of the prominence so that one expects that in a prominence the frequency redistribution processes will play an important role in determining the emergent intensity.
