Scientific paper

The maximum principal quantum numbers nm and the lowering of the continuum energy of hydrogen atoms in the solar chromosphere and photosphere are calculated. Several theories are discussed, and the work focuses on two major mechanisms of the lowering of the continuum (the reduction of the ionization energy and the line merging). It was found that under the physical conditions existing in the solar chromosphere and photosphere the maximum principal quantum number varies, depending on the plasma temperature and density, from nm = 11 to nm = 62.
