Inclusion of velocity gradients in the Unno solution for magnetic field diagnostic from spectropolarimetric data
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 08 June 2011
Abstract
We present an extension of the Unno-Rachkovsky solution that provides the theoretical profiles coming out of a Milne-Eddington atmosphere imbedded in a magnetic field, to the additional taking into account of a vertical velocity gradient. Thus, the theoretical profiles may display asymmetries as do the observed profiles, which facilitates the inversion based on the Unno-Rachkovsky theory, and leads to the additional determination of the vertical velocity gradient. We present UNNOFIT inversion on spectropolarimetric data performed on an active region of the Sun with the french-italian telescope THEMIS operated by CNRS and CNR on the island of Tenerife.
