Aa. Mihajlov et al., PROCESSES OF H-H-E AND H-2(+)-E RECOMBINATION IN THE WEAKLY-IONIZED LAYERS OF THE SOLAR ATMOSPHERE(), Astronomy and astrophysics, 324(3), 1997, pp. 1206-1210
The influence of the H - H+ - e and H-2(+) - e chemi-recombination pro
cesses on the highly excited hydrogen atom population in the photosphe
re and lower part of the chromosphere has been considered. It has been
shown that these chemi-recombination processes have an important role
in the large region around the temperature minimum in the Solar atmos
phere, where they are comparable to the other relevant recombination p
rocesses, or even dominant and that they should be taken into account
for the modelling of the weakly ionized layers in the Solar atmosphere
.
