چکیده
The introduction to this review summarizes chromosphere observation in two figures. The first part showcases the historical emphasis on the eclipse chromosphere in the development of NLTE line formation theory and criticizes 1D modeling. The second part advertises recent breakthroughs after many decades of standstill. The third part discusses what may or should come next.

A new view of quiet - Sun topology from Hinode / SOT
Context. With the recent launch of the Hinode satellite our view of the nature and evolution of quiet-Sun regions has been improved. In light of the new high resolution observations, we revisit the study of the quiet Sun’s topological nature. Aims. Topology is a tool to explain the complexity of the magnetic field, the occurrence of reconnection processes, and the heating of the corona. This Le...

DOT high-resolution imagery suggests that only internetworkspanning Hα “mottles” constitute the quiet-sun chromosphere, whereas more upright network “straws” in “hedge rows” reflect transition-region conditions.
متن کاملChronic Endometritis: Old Problem, Novel Insights and Future Challenges
Background/Aims: Chronic endometritis (CE) is a poorly investigated pathology that has been related to adverse reproductive outcomes, such as implantation failure and recurrent miscarriage. In this paper we aim to provide an overview about diagnosis, etiology, pathophysiology and treatment of CE, its impact on endometrial microenvironment and how it may be associated with infertility. Methods: ...
متن کاملReversal-free Ca iiH profiles: a challenge for solar chromosphere modeling in quiet inter-network
Aims. We study chromospheric emission to understand the temperature stratification in the solar chromosphere. Methods. We observed the intensity profile of the Ca iiH line in a quiet Sun region close to the disk center at the German Vacuum Tower Telescope. We analyze over 10 line profiles from internetwork regions. For comparison with the observed profiles, we synthesize spectra for a variety o...
متن کاملRecent Advances in Chromospheric and Coronal Polarization Diagnostics
I review some recent advances in methods to diagnose polarized radiation with which we may hope to explore the magnetism of the solar chromosphere and corona. These methods are based on the remarkable signatures that the radiatively induced quantum coherences produce in the emergent spectral line polarization and on the joint action of the Hanle and Zeeman effects. Some applications to spicules...
