Spectral lines allow us to probe the thermodynamics of the solar atmosphere, but the shape of a single spectral line may be similar for different thermodynamic solutions. Multiline analyses are therefore crucial, but computationally…

Sunspots are transient, magnetically intense features that host oscillations linked to magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) waves. These waves may contribute to plasma heating and drive mass flows in the solar wind. Beyond their energetic role, they…
Chromospheric inferences rely on the interpretation of spectral lines that are formed under Non-Local Thermodynamic Equilibrium (NLTE) conditions. In the presence of oscillations, changes in the opacity impact the response height of the…
