Context. The solar chromosphere and the lower transition region is believed to play a crucial role in the heating of the solar corona. Models that describe the chromosphere (and the lower transition region), accounting for its highly dynamic and structured character are, so far, found to be lacking. This is partly due to the breakdown of complete frequency redistribution in the chromospheric layers and also because of the difficulty in obtaining complete sets of observations that adequately constrain the solar atmosphere at all relevant heights. Aims. We aim to obtain semi-empirical model atmospheres that reproduce the features of the Mg II h&k line profiles that sample the middle chromosphere with focus on a sunspot. Methods. We use spectropolarimetric observations of the Ca II 8542 A spectra obtained with the Swedish 1-m Solar Telescope (SST) and use NICOLE

Small-scale umbral brightenings (SSUBs), umbral microjets, spikes or short dynamic fibrils (SDFs), and umbral dark fibrils are found in any observation of the chromosphere with sufficient spatial resolution. We study the spatial and spectral co-evolu
tion of SDFs, SSUBs, and umbral flashes in Ca II 8542 spectral profiles. We produce models that generate the spectral profiles for all classes of features using non-LTE radiative transfer with a recent version of the NICOLE inversion code. We find that both bright (SSUBs) and dark (SDFs) structures are described with a continuous feature in the parameter space that is distinct from the surroundings even in pixel-by-pixel
Penumbral Microjets (PMJs) are short-lived jets found in the penumbra of sunspots, first observed in wide-band Ca H-line observations as localized brightenings, and are thought to be caused by magnetic reconnection. Earlier work on PMJs has been focu
sed on smaller samples of by-eye selected events and case studies. It is our goal to present an automated study of a large sample of PMJs to place the basic statistics of PMJs on a sure footing and to study the PMJ Ca II 8542 Angstrom spectral profile in detail. High spatial resolution and spectrally well-sampled observations in the Ca II 8542 Angstrom line obtained from the Swedish 1-m Solar Telescope (SST) are reduced by a Principle Component Analysis and subsequently used in the automated detection of PMJs using the simple learning algorithm k-Nearest Neighbour. PMJ detections were verified with co-temporal Ca H-line observations. A total of 453 tracked PMJ events were found, or 4253 PMJs detections tallied over all timeframes and a detection rate of 21 events per timestep. From these, an average length, width and lifetime of 640 km, 210 km and 90 s were obtained. The average PMJ Ca II 8542 Angstrom line profile is characterized by enhanced inner wings, often in the form of one or two distinct peaks, and a brighter line core as compared to the quiet Sun average. Average blue and red peak positions were determined at -10.4 km/s and +10.2 km/s offsets from the Ca II 8542 Angstrom line core. We found several clusters of PMJ hotspots within the sunspot penumbra, where PMJ events occur in the same general area repeatedly over time. Our results indicate smaller average PMJs sizes and longer lifetimes compared to previously published values, but with statistics still in the same orders of magnitude. The investigation and analysis of the PMJ line profiles strengthen the proposed heating of PMJs to transition region temperatures.
We describe the disappearance of a sector of sunspot penumbra and its restoring process observed in the preceding sunspot of active region NOAA 12348. The evolution of the magnetic field and the plasma flows support the idea that the penumbra forms d
ue to a change of inclination of the magnetic field of the canopy. Moving magnetic features have been observed during the disintegration phase of that sector of sunspot penumbra. During the restoring phase we have not observed any magnetic flux emergence around the sunspot. The restoring process of the penumbra sector completed in about 72 hours and it was accompanied by the transition from the counter-Evershed flow to the classical Evershed flow. The inversion of photospheric spectropolarimetric measurements taken by IBIS allowed us to reconstruct how the uncombed configuration of the magnetic field forms during the new settlement of the penumbra, i.e., the vertical component of the magnetic field seems to be progressively replaced by some horizontal field lines, corresponding to the intra-spines.
We perform NLTE
Data analysis of sunspot oscillation based on 6-hr SDO run of observation showed that low frequency (0.2 < ! < 1 mHz) oscillations are local similar to three and five minute oscillations. The oscillations in the sunspot are concentrated in cells of a
few arcsec, each of which has its own oscillation spectrum. The analysis of two scenario for sunspot oscillations leads to conclusion that local sunspot oscillations occur due to subphotospheric resonator for slow mhd waves. Empirical models of sunspot atmosphere and the theory of slow waves in thin magnetic flux tubes is applied to the modeling of subphotospheric resonator. Spectrum of local oscillations consists of a great number of lines. This kind of spectrum can occur only if the subphospheric resonator is a magnetic tube with a rather weak magnetic field.Magnetic tubes of this sort are umbral dots that appear due to the convective tongues in the monolithic sunspots. The interrelation of local oscillations with umbral dots and wave fronts of traveling waves in sunspots is discussed.
