ABSTRACT

Microphotonoter tracings were made of the spectra on seven plates

exposed to the ultra-violet solar spectrum in the wave-length region

X 3650-5915 A at Mount Wilson, All the measurable spectral lines on

the tracings were examined and the equivalent widths, the r ratios

between the immediate and true backgrounds, and the central intensities

with respect to these two backgrounds determined for 1100 lines. A

statistical study was made of the observations, with particular reference

to the determination of the true meaning of a Rowland Intensity. Finally

some of the observations on the heaviest Fe 1 lines wore used to

determine the excitation temperatures of the solar reversing layer and

to extend the curve of growth, determined at Harvard farther up the

damping curve.

Chapter I. The Table of Equivalent Widths

Introductiom

The application of the methods of spectroscopy to astrophysics!

problems is one of the most rapidly growing hranohes of astronomy at

the present time, and one of the moat fruitful. An investigation of the

wave lengths of the spectral lines penults one to make deductions as to

thA elements present in the stellar atmosphere, and the physical condi­

tions, such as temperature, pressure, eto., at this surface. Similarly

a knowledge of the relative and absolute intensities of these lines

gives one an insight into the relative abundances of those elements,

as well as their temperature. ' :

In the visualc region of the solar spectrum, from A 4036 to

A §600, a very complete investigation of the relative intensities of the

Fraunhofer lines was made by C. W. Allen at the Commonwealth Solar

Observatory, in Australia. In order to extend the table to the near

ultraviolet. Dr. 0. F. Y/. Mulders la 1938 made a number of exposures

in this region using the 150-foot tower telescope of Mount Wilson

Observatory. Seven of these plates, covering the region X 3500-3900 A,

were sent to the University of Arisons. Using these plates, in 1959

Leon Blitser of the University of Arizona made a very accurate deter­

mination of the excitation temperature of the Solar Reversing Layer,

which he described in a thesis submitted to the University^, and in a

The seven plates measured were taken with the 150-foot tower

telescope and 75-foot spectrograph at the Mount Wilson Observatory,

which forms an image of the sum 17 inches in diameter. Undisturbed

regions in the center of the disk .were chosen. The spectra were taken

in the second order using a plane grating made by Mlehelson. The dis­

persion on the plates is 1 Angstrom per. 5 millimeters, and the theore­

tical resolving power is 150,000. . ;

From three to five exposures were made on each plate. The plates,

their spectra and the exposure times are given in Table I.

The slit width, was 0.002 inches throughout. A Written filter ISA■ ! - x:

was used to cut off all radiation longer than 4000 A, and thus to elim­

through each slit was proportional to its width. In this way a relative

intensity scale was impressed on the plate. The slit widths were*

The Microphotcmstw fraoings. ' - ' ' - '' " - ■'

Tracings of the heaviest spectrum on each plate were made with the

Moll mierophotometer of the Steward Observatory. This instrument had

recently been improved by the substitution of a photoelectric cell for '

the thermopile with ahich the instrument had been supplied, and the use

of a Leeds and Korthrup galvanometer of very short period. The current

sensitivity of this galvanometer is 8 x l(f9 amp/mm., and its period is 0.8 seconds. The recording drum carries a sheet of photosensitive paper

42 centimetere long, and it is connected to the driving clock through

a gear-box so that it can be rotated at two different rates of speed with

respect to the plate, the speeds such that the paper moves slither 4 dr 42 times as fast as the plate. Since the dispersion of the plates was

l/3 A per millimeter, it can be seen that at the two speeds each tracing

would cover about 2.8 or SO Angstroms respectively.

The theoretical resolving power of the spectrograph with which the

spectrograms were made was 180,000. At the mean wave length of AS722 A, this would mean that two lines would just be resolved if their centers

were only 0.028 A apart. Now the slit width of the micropbotometer was

0*07 mm, and the amplification of the image of the spectrum at the slit was about 6.5, so that 0.011 mm of the plate was covered by the slit at

any one time. For the dispersion of the plates this ease out to be

0.0037 A, which meant that the micro photon® ter had a resolving power about

necessary to know the calibration curves of the plates in terms of

galvanometer deflections on the tracings in order to interpret these

deflections in terms of Intensities. These calibration curves were

derived from the exposed strips produced by the vibrating step slit. A

cross-section across the strips m s chosen at a wave length close to the

mean for the tracing that had just been made. Each of the strips in this

cross-section was then placed before the micro photometer el it in turn

and the corresponding galvanometer deflection recorded on the same

tracing as had been exposed when the spectrum m s traced. This m s done

immediately after the tracing m s made, before the instrument had been■ ■disturbed in any way. The resulting galvanometer deflections were allowed

to fall on the tracing, which m s rotated. Since the relative widths

of the vibrating step slits could be interpreted as relative intensities,

a plot of these widths against the resulting galvanometer deflections

gave one a calibration curve by means of ski oh deflections on the tracing

could be interpreted in terms of relative intensities.

Low magnification tracings were first made of each of the darkest

spectra on the seven plates. Since each plate covered about eight

, Angstroms, three tracings covered each plate. Calibrations were impressed

on each of these tracings, and calibration curves drawn on semi-logarithmic

paper. On each tracing a few of the most prominent lines were identified

toy moans of Howland charts. Knowing the magnifications of the micro-

photometer , and the dispersion of the plates, the horizontal scales of

the high and low magnification tracings were computed to toe 125.4 and

11.54 mm. per Angstrom respectively. Thus, knowing these scales and the

wave lengths of a few lines on each tracing, accurate scales were drawn

on all the lew magnification tracings by means 1 of which all the other lines on the tracings could be identified. This very greatly facilitated

the identification of the spectral lines on the hig£ magnification

tracings which were made later. ,

The experience with the low magmifleation tracings led to tie belief

that for at least a half-hour at a time the adjustments of the micro-

photometer remained practically constant. Therefore, since with the high

magnification a tracing was made in about five minutes, a series of

calibrations wasu impressed on each fourth tracing only. Care was taken

during the changing of paper not to alter the zero point of the galvanometer,

or the light intensity through the microphotmeter, in any way. At the

end of the fourth tracing in each group, after the calibrations had been

made, the plate was removed and dusted, the zero point of the galvanometer

was checked, and the clear glass deflection was noted, after which a further

set of fbur tracings was made. In this way 34 low and 389 high magnifi­

cation tracings were made.

The tracings were developed with D-ll (Eastman) developer and fixed

with unhardened hypo solution. The hardener was omitted in order to

eliminate any inaccuracies due to the emulsion stretching during hardening.

The Continuous Background.

In order to measure the intensities of spectral lines it was

necessary to know what the intensity of the light would have been at that

point had the line not been present. In the solar spectrum, and in the

ultra-violet in particular, so many contributing elements are present

that there are very few points in the spectrum where absorption does not

take place. Mulders4 has made a study of the percent of radiation

absorbed by all the spectral lines in successive spectral regions. This

information is plotted in Figure 1.

The region that we are concerned with, from /'3530-3915 A, is

indicated by the horizontal line on the graph. It can be seen that this

is one of the most highly absorbed regions of the spectrum, about 35 6 of

the light being absorbed on the average by the lines. At probably no

point in this region is the radiation completely unabsorbed, so that we

line should W dr aim. Arbitrarily it was decided to draw a straight line

Arot^h the two lowest points on the low nagnifleatlm traetage, and to

assume that that line would hare been the galvanometer deflection for the

unabsorbed radiation, keeping in mind always that this was an arbitrary

assumption. ■' :; ; : ' -

In order to carry this sero absorption ^^kgrmmd mmr to the high

magnification tracings, the relative intensities of the background were

determined, with respect to the central intensity of some convenient

spectral lime. This relative intensity was as sumd to be the same on both

Only the very Waviest lines could be extrapolated down to the con­

lines were found to be blended with either the wings of the very heavy

lines, with which this region of the spectrum was filled, or with each

ether. In the case of the lines blended in wings, Thackeray® draws a

straight line across the base of the line, and calls it the Immediate

background. He then defines a quantity r as;-V ■ ■ - " ' f -■ ■ ' ’ . ' - " V ■ , :* :■ •’ ■■ ■ ■ ■■ : , . :/

line nas measured, and the line assumed to be symmetrical. In the sun this

antH^tion aas justified since the light had been received from an undis­

turbed region in the center ofthe disk* * Other lines had to he discarded

since they were too badly blended with their neighbors.

Determination of Equivalent Width:

Since spectral lines have contours of varying shapes and different

central intensities, it is convenient to define their intensities in terms

of the widths of some arbitrary lines of standard shape and central inten­

sity, where tho widths of the lines are the only quantities Thick vary

■with intensity. The arbitrary shape is taken as rectangular, and the

central intensity, vhich would of course be the intensity over the whole

rectangular line, is zero. The width:, of each a line, which absorbs the

same amount of radiation as some spectral line, is known as the Equivalent

*ldth of that spectral line. Equivalent widths are usually given in milli-

Angstroma.

In order to determine the equivalent width of a line, the deflections

of the galvanometer are measured on the tracing of the line for its center

and for equally-spaced points to the left end right of the center out to

the wings, both for the line and the immediate background. The corresponding

intensities were then found, and the relative intensities of the points on

the line with respect to the corresponding points on the issaediate back­

ground. These relative intensities were then plotted against the distances

from the line center, and the resulting curve integrated. Knowing the

scales of the tracing and the plot, the equivalent width of tho line was

then immediately found.

The Table of Equivalent Widths.

Using the foregoing method, the equivalent widths of all measurable

spectral lines were determined in the region 3530-3915 A. These values

are tabulated in Table II.6In columns 1 and 2 the wave lengths of the spectral lines and their

Howland Intensities are given. In column 3 the equivalent widths are given

in milli-Angstroms, and the corresponding values of r in column 4. The

last two columns give the central intensity of each line both with respect

to the immediate background and the continuous or true background.

Chapter II

A Statistical Study of the Table of Equivalent Widths

The statistical study was divided roughly into two partsi

(1) A study of the effect of blending upon the equivalent width

of a blended line

(2) A study of the effect of the blending of a line upon its

central Intensity, both with respect to the immediate and the true back­

ground, This led to the discussion of the true significance of the

Rowland Intensities.

In addition there were miscellaneous studies, such as the relation­

ship between central intensity and equivalent width.

It is of interest to know the numbers of lines of different Rowland

intensity actually measured, and to compare this with the nimber actually

present in the Revised Rowland for the same spectral region. This infor­

mation is plotted in Figure 2.

From this plot it can be seen that comparatively few of the faint lines of

Rowland Intensity less than 0 were measured. This is due to the fact that

many of them were too faint to measure, or were blended with heavier lines.

Progressively more of the lines were measured as we go to heavier and

heavier lines, as might be expected.

the Effect of Blending upon Equivalent Widths

The measures were divided into groups according to their Rowland

intensity, and then further subdivided according to their respective values

of r, the limiting values of r for each subdivision being 0.90 to 1.00,

0.80 to 0.89, etc. The resulting averages are given in Table 3s

seen that the two curves are approximately the same.

The curve on Figure 3 shows that within a Rowland Intensity group

the equivalent width decreases in proportion to the increase of blending.

In fact, the amount of decrease of the equivalent width is on the average

the amount that Thackeray predicts will be the decrease in the intensity

for a blended line. Thus we may say that, 6n the average,lines of the same

Rowland Intensity regardless of the degree of blending are produced by

transitions by the same numbers of atoms.

The Significance of a_ Rowland Intensity*

As a preliminary to the meaning of a Rowland Intensity, the equiva­

lent widths in Table 3 were averaged over each Rowland Intensity and

tabulated in column 3 of Table 5. The data in the first and third columns

of this table were plotted in Figure 4.

Figure 4. The Relationship Between W and Rowland Intensity.

Mulders^ obtained values for the relation between W and Rowland Intensity for X 3900, which are tabulated in the fourth column of

Table 5. A comparison of the values of W obtained by us and by Mulders

shows that they are in good agreement except for negative Rowland

Intensity groups. In these groups the values that we obtained were very

much greater than those of Mulders. That may be explained by saying that

it was due to the selection of the lines in those groups, only the heavier

lines in each group being measured, and thus the intensities of the averages

in these groups were weighted on the heavy side.

As a further preliminary the central intensities of each line, with

respect to each background, were averaged over each Rowland Intensity

group. These averages are found in Table 5, in the last two columns.

These figures were plotted in Figure 5, which gives the relationship between

Rowland Intensity and the central intensity with respect to the immediate

background (closed circles) and with respect to the true continuum (open

circles). — " i i i •" i ■

When this plot was made the expectation was that the shapes of the

two curves would give a clue as to which of the two central intensities

were used by Rowland in his determination of the intensities of the lines.

However, the tw> curves looked equally good, so that no decision could be

made at this point.

An attempt was made to decide which of the two curves was the more

A determination of the degree of modification of the central intensity

with varying r was then determined. Within each Rowland Intensity group

the observations were divided according to their r, using the same divisions

of r as were used for the Equivalent Vlfidth study. The observations were

then averaged and the logarithms of the averages found. The observations

in the first r group (from r = 0.90 to 1.00) were considered as being

essentially unblended, and the differences were found, between the logarithms

of the averages for all the other groups and the logarithm of the average

for this group. Finally all the Rowland Intensity groups were averaged

together. The resulting averages are listed in colxsnns three and four of

Table 4, and plotted against log r in Figure 6.

This is a very interesting graph. It shows that within a Rowland Intensity

group, the central intensity of a line with respect to the immediate back­

ground is increased with increased blending, whereas the opposite Is found

in the case of the central intensity with respect to the true continuum.

This result seems to indicate that the background against which

Rowland estimated his intensities lay somewhere between these two extremes.

Possibly a background could be drawn tangent to the general trend of the

intensities in the wings of the heavier lines. The background Rowland used

was probably determined by the amount of spectrum he could see at any one

time through the viewing microscope of his measuring machine, which at

best would be a rather local estimate.

Finally it is of interest to compare the Central Intensity of a line

with its Equivalent Width. Since the Equivalent Width of a line was

measured with respect to the immediate background, it was plotted against

the central intensity with respect to that same background. The data in

Table 5 venr used and the plot is shown in Figure 7.40 ----- — j------

Figure 7. The Relationship Between the Central Intensity of a Spectral Line and its Equivalent Width, both with Respect to the Immediate Background of the Line.

This graph is of interest in that it shows that for lines up to an intensity

Page 26: The intensities of spectral lines in the ultra-violet solar spectrum...In order to measure the intensities of spectral lines it was necessary to know what the intensity of the light

of about 50 milli-Angstroms, the central Intensity, or line depth, of the

line Is a good Index of its total Intensity. The curve may be compared

#ith that derived by Woolley9 for the nave length region A 4040-4274.The two curves are practically identical, but since the wave length regions

covered are different, they cannot profitably be drawn on the same graph.

The experimental re suit ssh own in figure 7 bear out the theoretical

explanation of the manner in "which the spectral lines increase in intensity

with an increase of the number of atoms undergoing the necessary transition

to produce the line. It has been shown theoretically that the frequency

of the light absorbed by an atom is not only dependent upon the energy dif­

ference between the initial and final energy levels of the jumping electron,

but also upon the velocity of the kinetic motion of the atom in the line of

sight. We might conceivably then erect two perpendiculars on either side

of the wave length absorbed by an atom at rest with respect to the observer,

the distance between each perpendicular and the central frequency being &

function of the temperature of the gas. The spectral line will then build

up within these perpendiculars, and since in general the kinetic motions of

the atoms are at random, the line will conform closely in shape to the sta­

tistical bell curve. The amount of radiation absorbed will be proportional

to the central intensity until the central intensity approaches 100% absorp­tion. As this point is reached the line begins to fill in the area enclosed

between the perpendiculars, so that the total anount of radiation absorbed,

shioh can be expressed in terms of an equivalent width, increases much more

begins to appear for equivalent widths of 50 milli-Angstroms in the sun.

For hotter stars the kinetic motions of the gasses of the atmosphere of the

star will be greater, which means that the two perpendiculars will be

farther apart, and the line will become more intense before this asymmetry

appears. The opposite takes place for stars which are cooler.

A Curve of Growth of Spectral Linos

A curve showing the relationship between the number of atoms

going a given transition and the intensity of the resulting spectral line

is known as a Curve of Growth of the lines. These curves may be deter­

mined from either a theoretical or experimental basis.

Theoretically two factors enter into the determination of the shape

of tile curve of growth. For fainter linos the Doppler broadening, which

is due to the kinetic motions of the atoms, is the mere influential. This

effect was described in the previous chapter. Were this the only factor

to be taken into consideration, the curve would approach some maximum

Intensity asymptotically for increase in the number of atoms. However ,

before this condition is reached, another factor influencing the intensity

of the line comes into play. This is the damping factor, brought about by..

the damping of the vibrations of the atoms undergoing transition. This

factor is influential in producing broad wings of absorption on either side

of the portion of the line whose width is determined by Doppler width.

Uasbld*0 has discussed the influence of each of these factors separately. He gives for the line contour due to the Doppler broadening

Menzel^* has derived a very convenient method for determining the tempera­

unknown value of X© and the computed value X^, defined by the equation*

eqmtion for Y becomes*Y” = loj ro - Uj L - >-o4?r J

T may be found according to the above equation for each line, and

then averaged over each aultiplet. Tihon this was done for six multiplets

When it became necessary to combine the points on these two arrays

into one curve of growth, a very useful table was found that had been derived

by Kingly 0f noun^ Wilaone He had experimentally determined the relative

intensities of a number of the heavier lines of Fe I. By plotting these

experimental intensities against the theoretical relative intensities, two

45° curves were found for the two arrays. The separation between the two

curves was 1,18 in the logarithm. This was therefore assumed to be the

relative intensity of the one array with respect to the other, so that by

making this correction to the array they could both be plotted on the same

relative intensity scale.

When this was done the heavy black points of Figure 8 were found.

In this figure the two arrays are superimposed on the curve of growth deter­

mined at Harvard by Menzel**. the open circles are some lines of multlplete

the relative intensities of which were not treated theoretically by

Oeldberg, and so > Jvh had to be arbitrarily moved over onto the curve.

These points extend the Harvard curve of growth up considerably, but

they do not add anything to the knowledge of the damping constant, since

the arrays do not contain any lines on the flat part of the curve of

growth to orient the heavier multlplete. A theoretical discussion which

may be made later may decide definitely the relative intensities of those

lighter multlplete here arbitrarily treated. In that event this work

should be repeated.

In a recent paper King* 17 has published the absolute f values for

twelve lines of Fe I. These lines were members of two multlplete,

a5p - gSpo gad a®D - z^D°. Using these values he was able to calibrate

his relative f scale, and he obtained the equation

absolute f - 1.85 x 10”* x relative f.

Knowing the absolute f values, it was possible to determine the number

results should be essentially equal. The difference is therefore entirely

due to the scatter of the determinations of the equivalent widths.

In conclusion one may say that in this thesis we have been mainly

concerned with a production of a table of equivalent widths in the near-

ultra-violet region of the solar speetrum, and have made a statistical

study of the observations, with emphasis upon the -problem of determining

the true meaning of a Rowland Intensity. Finally, we have used seme of the

observations of the heaviest iron lines to extend the Harvard curve of

growth into the damping region, and simultaneously made a determination of the c

excitation temperature end the absolute number of Fe I atoms present per

elemental volume in the sun* s reversing layers

I wish to express my appreciation for the assistance given this work

by the Physios Department and the Steward Observatory of the University of

Arizona. In particular I wish to thank.Dr. 0. i. W. Mulders, of Mount

Wilson, vho took the plates; Dr. E. F. Carpenter, who kindly consented to

our using the Moll micro photometer; and in Dr. F. E. Roach, who as director

of this thesis was a constant inspiration.
