Quiet-Sun MgII h & k line profiles from IRIS

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

We derived high-precision reference profiles of the MgII h and k lines that represent the quiet Sun during a minimum of the solar activity.

Description

To do so, we used the broad catalog of full-Sun mosaics obtained by the Interface Region Imaging Spectrograph (IRIS). To minimize the influence of the local variations due to the on-disk solar features and to achieve low levels of uncertainties, we used 12 IRIS full-Sun mosaics without sunspots or other significant signs of solar activity.

These mosaics were obtained between 2019 April and 2020 September in the near-ultraviolet spectral range. In this paper, we present the disk-averaged reference profiles of MgII h and MgII k lines, together with a series of reference profiles spanning the distance between the disk center and the solar limb. These series of profiles offer a detailed representation of the center-to-limb variation of both MgII h and MgII k lines.

The reference MgII h and k line profiles provided in this paper can be used as the incident radiation boundary condition for radiative-transfer modeling of prominences, spicules, and other coronal and chromospheric structures.
