Solar UV Atlas from HRTS

The spectra are based on observations obtained with the US Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) High Resolution Telescope and Spectrograph (HRTS) with the best available spatial and spectral resolution. The spectral range covers 120 - 173 nm, and includes a large number of emission lines formed in the solar chromosphere and transition region, as well as continuum radiation from the temperature minimum region in the solar atmosphere.
