Four decades ago the Stokes V line ratio in the Fe I 5247.06 and 5250.22 {\AA} lines was introduced as a powerful means of exploring the intrinsic field strengths at sub-pixel scales, which led to the discovery that most of the photospheric…
The iron lines at 630.15 and 630.25 nm are often used to determine the physical conditions of the solar photosphere. A common approach is to invert them simultaneously under the Milne-Eddington approximation. The same thermodynamic…
In this paper we propose an inversion strategy for the analysis of spectropolarimetric measurements taken by {\em Hinode} in the quiet Sun. The spectropolarimeter of the Solar Optical Telescope aboard {\em Hinode} records the Stokes spectra…
The design of modern instruments does not only imply thorough studies of instrumental effects but also a good understanding of the scientific analysis planned for the data. We investigate the reliability of Milne-Eddington (ME) inversions…
The contribution of the quiet Sun to solar irradiance variability, due either to changes of the solar effective temperature or to the presence of unresolved magnetic field, is still poorly understood. In this study we investigate spectral…
Polarized magnetic dipole (M1) emission lines provide important diagnostics for the magnetic field dominating the evolution of the solar corona. This paper advances a multi-line technique using specific combinations of M1 lines to infer the…
Aims. We examined the capabilities of methods based on the weak-field approximation and line bisectors to extract fast and reliable information about the height stratification of the magnetic field and line-of-sight velocities,…
A preliminary assessment of the in-flight radiometric calibration of the Hinode EUV Imaging Spectrometer (EIS) is presented. This is done with the line ratio technique applied to a wide range of observations of the quiet Sun, active regions…
Spectral inversion codes are powerful tools to analyze spectropolarimetric observations, and they provide important diagnostics of solar magnetic fields. Inversion codes differ by numerical procedures, approximations of the atmospheric…
Our knowledge of the lower solar atmosphere is mainly obtained from spectropolarimetric observations, which are often carried out in the red or infrared spectral range and almost always cover only a single or a few spectral lines. Here we…
We study non-LTE inversions of the Ca II infrared triplet lines as a tool for inferring physical properties of the quiet Sun. The inversion code is successful in recovering the temperature, velocity and longitudinal magnetic flux density in…
Context. Investigations of the magnetism of the quiet Sun are hindered by extremely weak polarization signals in Fraunhofer spectral lines. Photon noise, straylight, and the systematically different sensitivity of the Zeeman effect to…
Quiet Sun magnetism plays an important role in the global energy balance of the solar atmosphere. The study of the magnetism of the quiet Sun has been a major effort in the last decades, and, as a result, very important advances in our…
This paper investigates the distribution of linear polarization signals in the quiet Sun internetwork using ultra-deep spectropolarimetric data. We reduce the noise of the observations as much as is feasible by adding single-slit…
Studying the properties of the solar convection using high-resolution spectropolarimetry began in the early 90's with the focus on observations in the visible wavelength regions. Its extension to the infrared (IR) remains largely…
The Hinode mission has revealed copious amounts of horizontal flux covering the quiet Sun. Local dynamo action has been proposed to explain the presence of this flux. We sought to test whether the quiet Sun flux detected by Hinode is due to…
We examine whether or not it is possible to derive the field strength distribution of quiet Sun internetwork regions from very high spatial resolution polarimetric observations in the visible. In particular, we consider the case of the…
The Helioseismic and Magnetic Imager (HMI) aboard the Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) observes the Sun at the Fe I 6173 {\AA} line and returns full-disk maps of line-of-sight (LOS) observables including the magnetic flux density,…
We study the M1.9 class solar flare SOL2015-09-27T10:40 UT using high-resolution full-Stokes imaging spectropolarimetry of the Ca ii 8542 {\AA} line obtained with the CRISP imaging spectropolarimeter at the Swedish 1-m Solar Telescope.…
The Fe I 6173 {\AA} line is widely used in the measurements of vector magnetic fields by instruments including the Helioseismic and Magnetic Imager (HMI). We perform non-local thermodynamic equilibrium calculations of this line based on…
