Abstract: | The D3 line profile in plages on the disk is measured using a birefringent filter. The best fit Gaussian has a 1/e width of 0.4 Å, with negligible instrumental contribution. The D3 opacity is produced in regions with thermal linewidth -0.1 Å; the much larger observed width indicates large non-thermal motions in the chromosphere. |
