The effect of atomic polarization on early estimates of prominence magnetic field strengths
Tóm tắt
In this paper we present our results of the application of the magnetograph formula to synthetic Stokes V profiles in prominences. We investigate both the Zeeman and atomic-polarization signatures within the V profile and question why previous attempts to determine magnetic field strength, on average, were correct, even if the magnetograph formula does not apply in general.
