    The million kelvin temperature of the corona is pretty much an observation at this point. This is because the primary observation that leads to this conclusion is that the corona has such a gonzo emission spectrum. If we assume the corona's spectrum is an ordinary one, where the forbidden transitions aren't occurring, then it can't be matched to the known elements. (It was a serious proposition at one point after its discovery in 1867 that there was a yet undiscovered element dubbed "coronium" that made up the corona, the same way that helium was first discovered in the sun - it's why it's called helium.)
    The big problem, of course, is that we've discovered all the elements up to oganesson. No element matches the corona spectrum. However, if we suppose that the rogue lines are coming from forbidden transitions, then it's just the usual posse of elements. "Forbidden transition" is a misnomer because they are transitions that take FAR longer to occur than the "allowed" transitions you usually see in spectra. In order to see them, the atoms have to remain undisturbed for a LONG time in comparison. This requires that the corona be exceedingly tenuous.
    But in order to remain that tenuous, the corona would have to be millions of kelvin to maintain the pressure it needs to prevent infiltration of atoms from the chromosphere, etc., that will destroy the required extreme tenuousness of the corona, and remain stable.
    Up to this point, we haven't invoked anything but well-understood and well-tested physics, and requires no assumptions about the structure of the sun other than the corona has to remain stable. _Any_ model of the sun would have to explain the gonzo spectrum of the corona, and the only viable way to explain that spectrum is for the corona to be exceedingly tenuous and millions of kelvin. If there were any viable alternative, any at all, mainstream science would take it because the conclusion is that absurd at first blush.
    Robitalle proposes the only thing that the corona can't be: cool. If the corona is cool, it has to be dense to remain stable. If it's dense, the forbidden transitions disappear, and the spectrum is an ordinary one. If the spectrum is ordinary, then it can't be explained with the known elements. You would need to show that a new element, "coronium," produces the required spectrum, and with the periodic table pretty much buttoned up at this point, good luck with that.
    Oh, and those clumps of positively charged metallic hydrogen in the corona? Pure fantasy. Even with all their electrons, metallic hydrogen isn't stable below ~10 gigapascals. Without their electron seas, the chunks would instantly fly apart in a coulumbic explosion. And they don't solve the core problem of the corona, because you can't show where those rogue lines are coming from.

      Actually, it is a little more complicated than you describe. In fact, there are two lines of evidence that the solar corona does not heat with elevation. The first, is the realization that the continuous spectrum of the corona has been known for over one hundred years to redden slightly with elevation. The second is that the CO absorption line demonstrates clear cooling with elevation, and this line is thought to be in thermal equilibrium (unlike emission lines which are not in thermal equilibrium). Now, relative to the presence of forbidden lines, you are also not quite on target. The lines are considered forbidden because they cannot occur using electric dipole transitions. Most result from much weaker magnetic dipole or electric quadrupole transitions. Yes, it is true that forbidden lines are more likely to be seen in the free atom when the density is extremely low. That assumes however that nothing is disrupting the electron shells around the atom and that no chemical reaction is involved. When a chemical reaction is involved, then forbidden lines can become strong and that is what I believe we are seeing. It is a question of chemistry and that is the point you are ignoring. The interaction between two atoms can change the electron cloud and transitions which were considered forbidden can now take place. The presence of electropositive condensed matter in the corona is all that is required to stripe an atom like Fe of all but one or two of its electrons. The process disrupts the electron cloud of the atom and as a result, forbidden transitions are not only enhanced, they are selected. Elevated temperatures are not required. Your statements about metallic hydrogen are pure speculation. I restate my case: There is ample evidence for condensed matter, not only in the body of the Sun, but also in the corona, and metallic hydrogen is the only reasonable candidate. The simplest evidence for condensed matter to understand is that, in both regions, seismology measurements can be made. Seismology remains a science of the condensed state even though all the astronomers have tried to claim that they can perform seismology, not only is tenuous matter, but in much better vacuums than can achieved in most laboratories on Earth! So, if your corona truly has the density of a vacuum, how are you performing seismology measurements there? The answer is that the corona is not as tenuous as believed and is filled with condensed matter which has been ejected from the photoshere.

      I'm looking at the corona spectrum right now. It's a line spectrum.
      _The second is that the CO absorption line demonstrates clear cooling with elevation, and this line is thought to be in thermal equilibrium (unlike emission lines which are not in thermal equilibrium)._
      Well, duh, it would cool with elevation. A particle on its way out is fighting against gravity, so that'll bring the average velocity down. So, it cools down from an ungodly some million kelvin to maybe 900,000 kelvin. Still pretty hot.
      _When a chemical reaction is involved, then forbidden lines can become strong and that is what I believe we are seeing. It is a question of chemistry and that is the point you are ignoring._
      You have yet to show that there is significant chemistry happening in the corona that will cause the forbidden transitions. Until you show that the kind of chemistry to cause these emissions is occurring in sufficient quantity to explain the emission lines, this explanation is a non-starter.
      _The presence of electropositive condensed matter in the corona is all that is required to stripe an atom like Fe of all but one or two of its electrons._
      You can't assume the presence of electropositive condensed matter in the corona just because you need it for your notion, _especially_ if said electropositive condensed matter should fly apart in a coulombic explosion long before even _reaching_ the corona. Show that your clumps of metallic hydrogen have the lifetime to reach the corona, then show that they actually do what you speculate them to be able to do, and you might have a point. Until then, it's just speculation on your part.
      _The process disrupts the electron cloud of the atom and as a result, forbidden transitions are not only enhanced, they are selected._
      Where are your calculations for this?
      _Your statements about metallic hydrogen are pure speculation. I restate my case: There is ample evidence for condensed matter, not only in the body of the Sun, but also in the corona, and metallic hydrogen is the only reasonable candidate._
      Saying that doesn't make it true. You have yet to show that metallic hydrogen is _stable_ in the conditions of the photosphere, let alone anywhere else. As such, your "only reasonable candidate" is unreasonable to begin with. Your only 'evidence' of condensed matter is that the photosphere has a blackbody spectrum. Well, guess what! Molten iron *doesn't* have a blackbody spectrum - I'm looking at one right now, btw, so don't lie to me and say that it does. So, condensed matter doesn't guarantee a blackbody spectrum, so you need to show that liquid metallic hydrogen _specifically_ has a blackbody spectrum before this will hold water.
      _The simplest evidence for condensed matter to understand is that, in both regions, seismology measurements can be made. Seismology remains a science of the condensed state even though all the astronomers have tried to claim that they can perform seismology, not only is tenuous matter, but in much better vacuums than can achieved in most laboratories on Earth!_
      Seismology can be done wherever waves propagate through a medium. Condensed matter is the usual subject on earth, but it isn't the only place or medium it can be done.
      _So, if your corona truly has the density of a vacuum, how are you performing seismology measurements there?_
      Doppler shifts on the (very clearly) line spectrum of the corona - integrate that and get a time-vs-position waveform. A tenuous gas can propagate vibrations, after a fashion. If it propagates vibrations, you can do seismology. Your incredulity is merely a skill issue.
      This is basically why you're not taken seriously by the scientific community: you throw out these ideas and expect other scientists to be at your beck and call to test your ideas and do the hard work necessary to make sure that it's even within the realm of possibility, let alone a probable explanation, let alone the only viable explanation. You don't do any of the hard _work_ it would take to advance your theory. Years after I've first heard about your idea, it's still at this primitive stage. Meanwhile, mainstream solar dynamics theory is being worked on by literally thousands of researchers no less distinguished than yourself, and as a body far more familiar with the subject than you can ever hope to be. Think of what you're up against; is it any wonder why you're having a tough time of it?
      But let's give you that you are actually correct, and another researcher takes up your mantle to construct a theory of the sun... that researcher is the one who is going to get _all_ the credit for your 'theory', because _he's_ the one to have done the work to turn your notions into an actual working hypothesis.
      You're not doing research; you're spitballing.

      @pierre-marierobitaille2095 Could the corona be specularly reflecting x-rays coming from the powerful sources located at the sunspots? In other words, corona is always there regardless if it is a maximum or a minimum, the only difference is that during minimum it is not lit (x-Ray) by sunspots. That is what it looks like to me when I look the corona on x-Ray band images.

      @@wyrmofvt You made some statements, I corrected then. I will not be repeating the exercise for every thought that might come into your head. For the sake of the reader however, I will correct two errors you make once again:
      "The first, is the realization that the continuous spectrum of the corona has been known for over one hundred years to redden slightly with elevation." Robitaille
      "I'm looking at the corona spectrum right now. It's a line spectrum." wyrmofvt
      Unfortunately, you fail to see the forest for the trees. The corona has a continuous spectrum (the K-corona). That is the white coronal light one sees during an eclipse. According to modern theory, that light is being produced by the scatterring of photospheric light through relativistic electrons located in the corona. Of course, this is simply reaching for an explanation, because the standard model has no means of accounting for the production of white light in the corona. The "soup" of processes it required to produce such light in the photosphere is unavailable in the corona. So for them, the light must be simply scattered photospheric light. The problem is that the K-corona does redden with elevation and that cannot happen if it is just scattered photospheric light. Conversely, I have argued that the corona is self-luminous. That is because it contains condensed matter and such matter can produce a thermal spectrum. The emission lines are superimposed on the K-corona, that is properly called the E-corona and you are confusing the two.
      "The second is that the CO absorption line demonstrates clear cooling with elevation, and this line is thought to be in thermal equilibrium (unlike emission lines which are not in thermal equilibrium)." Robitaille
      "Well, duh, it would cool with elevation. A particle on its way out is fighting against gravity, so that'll bring the average velocity down. So, it cools down from an ungodly some million kelvin to maybe 900,000 kelvin. Still pretty hot." wyrmofvt
      A lack of knowledge makes a very poor basis for holding a conversation. You need to learn the literature before you write and attack people. The spectrum of the CO absorption lines extends from the chromosphere into the transition zone. The lines are IR lines related to a vibrational-rotational line of the molecule. That is a key point. This is not an emission line caused by an electronic transition. The temperature reported does not increase with elevation, but rather decreases from about 6,000 K down to about 3,500 K. You can consult Fig. 1 in this paper: H. Uitenbroek, The CO Fundamental Vibration-Rotation Lines in the Solar Spectrum. II. Non-LTE Transfer Modeling in Static and Dynamic Atmospheres. Astrophys. J. 2000, v. 536(1), 481-493. Of course, astronomers have tried to discount the observation, by arguing that there are now different regions at different temperatures within the chromosphere and transition zone, because that is their only way to preserve their ultra hot corona. Conversely, I argue that the CO lines are the only lines that are properly reporting temperature because that temperature comes from a vibrational-rotational line, not an emission line. The temperature of the solar atmosphere has clear signs of decreasing towards the transition zone as indicated by CO. This of course changes our understanding that the corona is being heated as a direct result.
      The rest of your arguments reflect a lack of both fundamental understanding of spectroscopy and careful consideration of the issues at hand. Good day.

    I would have thought the question of the exposed surface by a Sunspot being cooler than its Chromosphere might be the greater heat problem exemplified by a fusion powered Star? But there you go! I know you won't be interested, but The Electric Sun Model predicts virtually every feature the sun currently displays. Indeed, the model would be considered wrong if the Corona was not a lot hotter than a Sunspot. Which it is. It appears not so with the Standard Model, which lives on despite its dismal prediction success rate when compared with the Sun’s reality thrown back at them (meaning those adherents desperately trying to hold it up). For example, it does not even predict Sunspots, which the Electric Sun model does.Of course we can perhaps blame the likes of Sydney Chapman, and later Eddington for the, almost English Speaking-Scandinavian science divide that was created, which perhaps caused this. Leaving the likes of Birkeland and later Hanas Alfen et al to continue on their obviously misguided electrical/plasma based science, Nobel prize awards included, they being no longer of the mainstream Anglified perspective. Of course, the real problem with the Electric Sun model being right, which it most likely is, is that it presents a much, much bigger problem to the rest of Cosmology, so must be resisted vigorously.

    When it comes to definition of temperature, is it macroscopic temperature (in the Boltzmann constant) in applied to gross matter. It is measurable. However, the microscopic temperature, the electron temperature of Plasma is always quoted very high. It is due the non-equilibrium state of electrons in the Plasma. There is no measurement is possible for Plasma, when it not in equilibrium state. The solar corona, it is the electron cloud (lightest matter of other Sun) is an dis-associated matter from the parent atom matter, waiting to recombine with proton to attain near equilibrium state. Such state of matter (Sun corona/electron cloud) need not have regular plasma temperature, which we found in the Plasma cutters.
    If we can think that Sun’s radiation emission is due liquid state of Hydrogen,we have to think, the outer corona is an electron cloud, which is already produced so deep inside Sun, but gradually emerged to the height of Sun’s corona. The time travel from electron disassociation from Hydrogen to form a Sun corona cloud could be very large time process. In this time travel, the disassociation electron might have lost the thermal energy to less than 6000K. This could be a possible explanation, where in the electrons in Sun Corona are not attaining equilibrium state (possibly waiting to recombine with proton), but losing temperature much lower than 6000K.
    More research is required in this path. Sun Corona temperature could be less then Sun's surface temperature.

      To resolve the temperature of Sun corona, one must establish what is the matter Sun corona consists of. It could be only electron cloud, which is the lightest matter, that can appear to the outer boundary of Sun atmosphere. But it is charged cloud, could have attained streamed flow due to the Sun magnetic field influence. Solar wind is the best example of it. Such solar winds also reach to Earth. Satellite can be used to detect what solar wind consists of, is it electron cloud or has any other heavier elements like protons, Hydrogen, Helium, etc.
      Referring to Sun corona temperature, if it is an electron cloud, there is no known processes, that it can produce temperature on its own. It Sun corona is an electron cloud, it can exhibit only macroscopic temperate, if it measured. Such temperature could be lower than Sun surface emission temperature 6000K

    This would explain the phenomena of a few observed asteroids and comets that have skimmed through the corona and emerged intact and barely changed. They encounter heat levels in the mid 1000's of degrees K not tens of thousands or millions. Their surface may be ablated or sintered but they are not vaporized.

      The corona is extremely tenuous and while it has a high _temperature,_ it has very little _heat_ content. It's like dumping a teacup of piping hot water into an olympic sized swimming pool. There will be no appreciable heating in the swimming pool because the amount of heat you added is minuscule - even at its boiling point, a teacup full of water doesn't contain much heat compared to the amount that would take to raise the temperature of a whole big swimming pool.

    I'm glad that you noted Robitaille's disagreement with your annotation in the graphic at 3.23 onward. Robitaille's model would have the solar interior as a solid. Absolutely black... and relatively cold. Indeed, it is this black solar interior that we see when there are sunspots!
    To further help describe what is going on (This is a complicated thing to explain but I'll do my best):
    First let's remember what we know about atomic weapons:- the atoms of pure metals will split and release their energy in a violent explosion when subjected to an extreme pressure. This is what makes an atomic weapon work! So we have practical evidence of this phenomena. However, what happens when the pressure around the atoms is so great that they CANNOT release their energy? Their energy is trapped and the atoms exist in a metastable molecular structure. Robitaille reasonably conjectures that this is what the bulk of the Sun is- that the atomic structure in the solar interior is most likely a body-centered cubic arrangement, therefore a solid structure. So let's consider this knowledge in light of Robitaille's metallic hydrogen Sun...
    Imagine the star as a solid ball of metallic hydrogen, the atoms (and their potential energy) are contained by immense pressure due to the mass of atoms above. However, at the surface the atoms are exposed to the vacuum of space, where there is zero pressure! So there MUST be a depth where the pressure transitions from "too immense to allow energy release" to "too little to contain the release". Robitaille has reasonably conjectured that this transition zone is a few hundred kilometers beneath the Solar surface.
    What happens is that the atoms at this depth break apart and release their energy as the pressure is no longer high enough to contain it. The energy release then blazes towards the surface, much like the bubbles rising through boiling water. This then explains the roiling liquidous surface that we observe.
    We see this transition zone when we see Sunspots... the black interior of the Sun becomes visible as a magnetic storm opens a hole in the surface. We can then see the transition zone in action, with the initial releases taking place deep in the hole and moving outwards to the surface.
    Indeed, this black mass beneath the transition zone is the inspiration for the concept of a "Black Hole"- a region where the pressure is to great to allow the release of energy. It's not that the gravity is too great (as the fallacious Black Hole model suggests), but the pressure! And the fact we know how atomic weapons work is testament to the fact that Black Holes as stand alone entities cannot be black! Because at some point the pressure at the surface is too low to contain the energy being released from within. This is unavoidable physics!
    Remember gravity is a relatively weak force, however, where it is combined with a large mass, it exerts immense pressure towards the interior of that mass. The pressure is an exponential factor of the mass present. By comparison, the gravity is a linear progression.

    Is it possible that there is a neutron flux from within the Sun that is enough to ionise the corona? This would give the appearance of very high temperature (because to achieve ionisation from atomic collisions requires those high temperatures), but neutron collisions could ionise the corona gas without creating such high temperatures. A neutron flux would not ionise the chromosphere because the greater density would enable rapid recombination. The illusion of high temperature could only persist in the more dilute environment of the corona gas.

Motion into the “gravity well” increases the speed of the muon. Entering the corona to a depth that has a raised index of refraction will increase the speed of the muon. At some place the muon fails, not kinetically, rather relativistically, releasing all its energy into the corona.

    I always enjoy watching your videos, you are man of good understanding of current physics explanations. I’m hoping one day I will be able to give you clear explanations of sun’s true function, that will be key to scientists understand almost everything about the universe it self. Sr. I want you picture this in your mind sun core made up of countless subatomic particles of protons and neutrons. Now I want you think of in your mind one iron atom, with out of any electrons just a nucleus it self, now try to imaging this, suns core exactly the same thing it just a nucleus with out of electrons only with one difference suns core extremely large, no electrons involved. First time ever I will explain how atoms energy becomes dense, atomic shells accumulate all energy to create their density, when subatomic particles expand their energy, quarks stay together within core , moreover shells energy expand according to the pressure exists, just for that reason earths gravitational expansion looks like doughnut shape because that is shell in expanded form. You are constantly talking about liquid hydrogen, Sr. I will insure you there is no liquid hydrogen, if we stopped destruction of atoms from inner core of our sun and stopped the energy function of atoms it will turned out the most dense atom in solid, it would be most heaviest metal in existence. Suns inner core has no hydrogen atom I will guarantee you, I can prove it as well. Now let’s understand why is that suns coronal heat reaches couple of million degrees not on the surface of the sun. After subatomic particles forcefully separated from the inner core internal pressure ejects separated energy onto surface, where suns ejected over heated atoms condense together and spinning none stop, while its cooling down and breaking apart into single subatomic particles and forcefully traveling outward to corona. Now lets understand how corona holds atoms where temperature increases above millions of degrees, if you checked my explanations I explained many times inner core made up with subatomic particles, subatomic particles they go on and off none, that creates rings none stopped, this rings travel from inside out. Right above the corona sun has the first ring, appearance and disappearance of the creates pressure above force the subatomic particles stay below the rings, which would be considered sun’s uppermost atmospheric reach on coronas location. Just like our earth has atmospheric uppermost reach is fifty nine miles deep into space, it works exactly the same way like sun’s gravitational field, is not different, only with one difference, sun’s gravitational field extends billions of miles, earth’s gravitational field expansion is about little more than ten million miles away. Higher the pressure over the inner core farther away the expansion, here is size is matters. I hope all this explanation will help you understand why coronal heat reaches millions of degrees.

This phenomenon is further observed as El Nino and La Nina patterns in the Indo-Pacific Ocean, that effect rain fall in particular year.

The question is rather that when you are talking about "people who understand the relevant science" you actually mean the adherents of the standard model, which makes your argument kind of circular. I recognize that such heterodox ideas are hard to swallow for the established model, nonetheless we are doing science here - which means trying an unprejudiced evaluation of the evidence. If you come to other conclusions, so be it. But remain unemotional.

      Nope. It is not. Why do you think it is not indexed by anyone? Why did it appear on Beall's list as a predatory journal? Claiming to be peer-reviewed does not mean that it is. It is a joke journal.

      No, I mean people qualified in anything relevant. Robitaille isn't. You are basically making the same arguments I hear from creationists. And Robitaille is quite likely one of them.
