The following expression is obtained for the relation between the Lyman-alpha irradiance and the solar flux at 10.7 cm: I(Lyman-alpha) equals 2.5 x 10 to the 11th plus 0.011 (F - 65) x 10 to the 11th photons/sq cm-sec (with a correlation coefficient R equals 0.91 and a standard deviation D equals 0.25). The limitations in the absolute calibration of the instruments mean that the values deduced from this expression have an accuracy of plus or minus 25 percent; the irradiance for a perfectly quiet sun is (2.5 plus or minus 0.5) x 10 to the 11th photons/sq cm-sec.
