In this paper we emphasize the non-Lorentzian behavior of the Balmer series in helium-dominated DBA white dwarf stars for which the decades-old problem exists for the determination of the hydrogen abundance. In a very recent work, we have…
The spectra of helium-dominated white dwarf stars with hydrogen in their atmosphere present a distinctive broad feature centered around 1160~\AA\/ in the blue wing of the Lyman-$\alpha$ line. It is extremely apparent in WD 1425+540 recently…
In order to investigate the near wing of the Lyman-alpha line, accurate line profile calculations and molecular data are both required due to the existence of a close line satellite responsible for its asymmetrical shape. Lyman-alpha lines…
We present theoretical calculations of the quasi-molecular line profiles for the Lyman (Lya, Lyb, Lyg, Lyd) and Balmer (Ha, Hb, Hg, Hd, He, H8, H9, and H10) series, perturbed by collisions with protons. In all calculations we include the…
Spectral observations below Lyman-alpha are now obtained with the Cosmic Origin Spectrograph (COS) on the Hubble Space Telescope (HST). It is therefore necessary to provide an accurate treatment of the blue wing of the Lyman-alpha line that…
The solar radiation in the Lyman-alpha spectral line of hydrogen plays a significant role in the illumination of chromospheric and coronal structures, such as prominences, spicules, chromospheric fibrils, cores of coronal mass ejections,…
Recent studies of interstellar neutral (ISN) hydrogen observed by the Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) suggested that the present understanding of the radiation pressure acting on hydrogen atoms in the heliosphere should be revised.…
We present new theoretical calculations of the total line profiles of Lyman alpha and Lyman beta which include perturbations by both neutral hydrogen AND protons and all possible quasi-molecular states of H_2 and H_2^+. They are used to…
We present new theoretical calculations of the line profile of Lyman gamma that include transitions in which a photon is absorbed by a neutral hydrogen atom while it interacts with a proton. Models show that two absorption features located…
We present a modification of a model of solar cycle evolution of the solar Lyman-alpha line profile, along with a sensitivity study of interstellar neutral H hydrogen to uncertainties in radiation pressure level. The line profile model,…
We investigate the formation of the H I Lyman-alpha and Lyman-beta lines in an equatorial coronal streamer. Particular attention is paid to frequency redistribution for the scattering of the incident radiation. The properties of the…
We show how the observed hydrogen Balmer and Lyman emission lines constrain the modeling of quiescent solar prominences. We compare space observations of Lyman lines with ground-based observations of Balmer lines for quiescent solar…
We investigate the role of non-thermal electrons in the formation regions of Halpha, Hbeta, and Hgamma lines in order to unfold their influence on the formation of these lines. We concentrate on pulse-beam heating varying on a subsecond…
Using a Monte Carlo technique, we have developed a 3D lyman-alpha radiation transfer code allowing for prescribed arbitrary hydrogen density, ionisation, temperature structures, and dust distribution, and arbitrary velocity fields and UV…
We study the influence of the non-flat shape of the solar Lyman-alpha line on the distribution of neutral interstellar hydrogen in the inner heliosphere and assess importance of this effect for interpretation of heliospheric in situ…
Interplanetary Lyman alpha line profiles are derived from the SWAN H cell data measurements. The measurements cover a 6-year period from solar minimum (1996) to after the solar maximum of 2001. This allows us to study the variations of the…
The hydrogen Lyman-alpha plays a dominant role in the radiative energy transport in the lower transition region, and is important for the stud- ies of transition-region structure as well as solar wind origin. We investigate the Ly-alpha…
We present observations and results of radiance and irradiance studies completed by SoHO-SUMER during the past solar cycle. We find that the cycle variation in Ly-alpha irradiance as observed by e.g. UARS-SOLSTICE can not be explained by…
Satellites in electronic spectra are pure many-body effects, and their study has been of increasing interest in both experiment and theory. The presence of satellites due to plasmon excitations can be understood with simple models of…
