antisymmetric spatial distribution, which is caused by the
presence of a bright structure in all the selected regions,

an internetwork region, the Lyman-ensuremathalpha center

the disk center spectrum, both recorded with the FTS at NSO/Kitt Peak.

range of limb distances by giving the ratio spectra for the nine $mu$

$mu$ have been recorded over the last couple of years with the solar

find that the CLV is spectrally as richly structured as the ordinary
