Critical Next Steps • Adjust photospheric models and abundances • Low first-ionization-potential (FIP) contribute to ne and photospheric opacity • High FIP are needed for upper layers • Re-think lower chromosphere • Account for radio data showing Tmin<4200 K • Account for UV continua from SOHO-SUMER showing high Tmin • Account for molecular lines (CN, CH, CO) showing low Tmin • Re-think upper chromosphere with current abundances and observations • Re-compute transition region with updated abundances, atomic data, diffusion and flows, and energy-balance • MHD, full-NLTE, 3D simulations of chromospheric variations • Prominence eruptions-CMEs
Low Chromosphere Issues Fe & C abundance seem good C I line But computed CN lines are not good. Are abundances incorrect? Or is the model chromosphere incorrect?
V1.5 Ly Computed Profiles • Continuum too high due to Sulphur continuum • Not enough contrast for faculae and plage • Umbra profile has reversal unlike the observed
For each species and ionization stage Trace Species Ionization • Or split the abundance and ionization
