The Abundances of the Elements in the Solar Photosphere--II: Sodium, Aluminium, Phosphorous, Sulphur and Potassium

A comprehensive account is given of the available solar absorption lines arising from the elements sodium, aluminium, phosphorus, sulphur and potassium. The use of improved oscillator strengths for selected lines leads to a revision of the abundances of these elements. The final values, on the scale log N (H) = 12.00, are $$\text{log }N(\text{Na})=6.18\\\text {log }N(\text {Al})=6.40\\\text{log }N(\text{P})=5.43\\\text{log }N({\text S})=7.21\\\text{log }N(\text K)=5.05
