Abstract
Abundances of the iron-group elements are derived from ionic lines present in the solar photospheric spectrum. Within the precision permitted by our present knowledge of f values, atmospheric models, and damping theory, equivalent-width procedure or spectrum-synthesis analysis lead to abundances in harmony with those found from neutral species and with the results available from the study of carbonaceous chondrites.
