Аннотация:We observed a B6.2-class solar flare in active region NOAA 12651 using the HSFA spec-trograph at the Ond ˇrejov Observatory in hydrogen spectral lines. After processing the spectra, theintegral emission fluxes in the Hα, Hβ, and Hε lines were determined. Within the heated-gas approach,a theoretical reconstruction of the plasma parameters was performed, taking into account the physicalconditions in the chromosphere, including self-absorption in the spectral lines. Treating the observedfluxes requires the assumption of inhomogeneous gas. Agreement between the theoretical and observedfluxes is achieved in a model involving the superposition of two gas layers. Behind lies a dense gaswith concentration N ranging from 3 × 10^12 to 3 × 10^13 cm−3, and between it and the observer is ararefied layer where N = (3−6) × 10^10 cm−3. The layer thickness is in the range from 600 to 3000 km,the temperature—between 4000 and 7200 K, and the turbulent velocity—from 0 to 90 km/s. Thepresence of dense regions indicates that the source of the observed emission originates from the middlechromosphere, not higher than 1000 km.
