초록

It is well known that chromospheric features are fine structured, short lived, and dynamic. Spectrograph-based observation have obvious advantage of getting physical properties of solar chromosphere than filter-based one. We developed and installed Fast Imaging Solar Spectrograph (FISS) attached on New Solar Telescope in Big Bear Solar Observatory. FISS have capabilities to take data with high time, spatial and spectral resolution at two wavelengths(Ha $6563{\AA}$ and CaII $8542{\AA}$) simultaneously. After FISS installation, we observed various chromospheric features : active regions, quiet regions, filaments/prominences and so on. As one of chromospheric studies, we analyzed solar prominences and got physical parameters by using simple radiative transfer modeling. The ranges of temperature and non-thermal velocities are found to be 7500-13000K and 5-11km/s, respectively.
