Measurement of Radiative Loss from the Multi-layer Spectral Inversion of the Ha line and Ca II 8542 line taken by the FISS

Measuring radiative loss from the solar chromospheric lines like Ha line, Ca II 8542 line helps to infer the exact amount of non-thermal heating in the solar atmosphere. By courtesy of the multi-layer spectral inversion, it is able to determine the radiative loss in the upper and lower chromosphere. Consequently, we found that the radiative loss is around 10 kW/m², which is consistent with previous studies. Comparing the radiative loss at the upper and lower chromosphere, the loss at the lower chromosphere is larger than that of upper chromosphere and tends to spread all over the field of view while the loss in the upper chromosphere tends to be localized. We hope to find a hint for specific non-thermal heating process to explain the chromospheric radiative loss.
