摘要

The H i Lyman-alpha (Ly α $\alpha $ ) emission, with a wavelength of 1216 Å, is the brightest solar ultraviolet (UV) line. However, comprehensive observations of the Ly α $\alpha $ emission line across the full solar disk remain limited. As part of the ASO-S mission, the Solar Disk Imager (SDI) has successfully captured full-disk images in the Ly α $\alpha $ band. Gaussian fitting of SDI’s spectral response function (SRF) yields a full width at half maximum (FWHM) of approximately 85 Å, which is significantly broader than the distance of Si iii line at 1206 Å and the Ly α $\alpha $ line. Thus, the emission contribution of Si iii to the SDI Ly α $\alpha $ passband needs to be considered. For flares, in practice, we calculated the integrated intensity ratio I $I$ (Si iii)/ I $I$ (Ly α $\alpha $ ) by analyzing spectral observations from the SOLSTICE instrument. It yields values between 1.7% and 14.6%. Empirically, the ratio is proportional to the SXR flux. Further analysis of spectral data from the SUMER instrument reveals that the ratio I $I$ (Si iii)/ I $I$ (Ly α $\alpha $ ) is approximately 0.5% for prominences, 0.7% – 0.9% for the inner disk, and 1.4% – 1.9% close to the limb. These findings suggest that I $I$ (Si iii)/ I $I$ (Ly α $\alpha $ ) is minimal for prominences and the inner disk, and the varying ratios across regions align with the center-to-limb variation of the Si iii and Ly α $\alpha $ lines. Additionally, we compared Ly α $\alpha $ image intensity with 304 Å, 1600 Å, and 1700 Å observations from AIA, as well as H α $\alpha $ from CHASE, in multiple regions (a prominence region, two active regions, and a quiet region). A relatively higher correlation of about 85% is found between Ly α $\alpha $ and 304 Å in active regions, whereas in the quiet region and prominence, their correlation coefficients are about 55%.
