Abstract: We proposed the method for diagnostics of the horizontal velocities field based on 2D observations at the center of the solar disk with high spatial and temporal resolution. The method consists in semiempirical modeling of the solar atmosphere by solving inverse radiative transfer problem and subsequent receiving horizontal velocities by solution of the corresponding hydrodynamics equations. We investigated the diagnostic possibilities of the line Ba II λ 455.403 нм (considering hyperfine structure and isotope splitting) for studing horizontal velocity field of the solar atmosphere. |
| Keywords: horizontal velocities field, solar atmosphere, the line Ba II |
