Scientific paper

Calculations for a resonant scattering spectrometer observing the sun are compared directly with experimental data, and implications for the determinations of solar oscillations are considered. It is shown, in particular that the wavelength-positional correlation results in a weighing of the contributions to the observed signal over the projected solar image dependent on the relative line-of-sight velocity between the observer and the solar surface. The complications introduced by using a more complex line, such as Na, as proposed for the GOLF instrument on the SOHO mission, are also discussed.
