The ion-atom absorption processes as one of the factors of the influence on the sunspot opacity

As a continuation of the previous investigations of the symmetric and strongly non-symmetric ion-atom absorption processes in the far UV region within the models of the quiet Sun photosphere, these processes are studied here within a model of the sunspot. Here we mean the absorption processes in the H$(1s)$+H$^{+}$ and H$(1s)+X^{+}$ collisions and the processes of the photo-dissociation of the H$_{2}^{+}$ and H$X^{+}$ molecular ions, where $X$ is one of the metal atoms: $X=$Na, Ca, Mg, Si and Al. Obtained results show that the influence of the considered ion-atom absorption processes on the opacity of sunspots in the considered spectral region (110 nm $\lesssim \lambda \lesssim$ 230 nm) is not less and in some parts even larger than the influence of the referent electron-atom processes. In such a way, it is shown that the considered ion-atom absorption processes should be included \emph{ab initio} in the corresponding models of sunspots of solar-type and near solar-type stars. Apart of that, the spectral characteristics of the considered non-symmetric ion-atom absorption processes (including here the case $X$ = Li), which can be used in some further applications, have been determined and presented within this work.
