Profiles are computed for Ha and two Fei lines for a differentially moving atmosphere. The results show that the profiles are asymmetric and that velocity measurements made in the Doppler cores will often lead to erroneous results when the velocity gradient is significant in the regions of the atmosphere where the core forms.
