The chromosphere
mosphere chrooma = [Greek] color; sphairos = [Greek] ball. The osphere is a layer in the Sun that is roughly between about 400 kmm above the solar surface. The temperature in the chromospherebetween about 4000 K at the bottom (the so-called temperature um) and 8000 K at the top. The chromosphere shows up in imagen the center of the H-alpha spectral line and also (briefly) near theng and end of a total solar eclipse.(Sac Peak web-page)

What have we learnt?
• Ca II grains explained by acoustic waves
• only way to get strong blue-red assymetry is through a strong velocity gradient
• 3 min waves present already in photosphere
• Non-magnetic chromosphere very dynamic. Theremay be no temperature rise.
• Slow rates important for hydrogen ionization and energy balance in chromosphere
• Acoustic waves not enough to explain mid-upper chromosphere in internetwork

3d convection zone to coronal modeling
• Corona is high temperature and low beta
• thermal conduction dominates the energy equation
• heat flows along the field in low beta plasma
• Convection zone & photosphere is high beta
• Coronal dynamics and energetics are a result of forcing by the lower regions of the atmosphere
• Driving term in energy equation is radiation
• Chromosphere (and TR) are intermediate

Solution of the energy equation with conduction
• Numerical analysis severely strained by Courant condition - which with conduction scales as the grid size squared
• An implicit operator to solve diffusive part of operator
• Proceed by operator splitting
• High order explicit method with Hyman time-stepping is used to solve MHD
• Multigrid method is used to solve diffusive operator

General considerations
which means solution converges by repeated averaging
Elliptic (and "elliptic like") operators can be solved by relaxation methods
e general idea is that Jacobi or Gauss - Seidel iteration is very gooremoving errors on the "small" scales and very bad at removing rors on "large" scales.
ultigrid methods work by converting large scales to small scales

• We use a V-cycle starting at original grid size h
• at this finest grid level the solution is smoothed using a few Gauss-Seidel relaxation to smooth the high frequency errors
• The residual errors are injected into a coarser grid
• This process of smoothing and injection continues down to a the coarsest grid
• The solution interpolated back up to the finest grid
• through a succession of intermediate smoothing and prolongation steps
• Injection and prolongation are obtained simply by bilinear interpolation.
