Description
Data on the solar p modes observed simultaneously in the solar NaI and KI absorption lines were obtained in 1985 by operating two independent resonant scattering spectrometers at the same site (Observatorio del Teide, Tenerife). Since the abundances of the ground state atoms of these two elements are not the same, different depths of the solar photosphere are sampled. A comparison of the data obtained is given.
