We present spectropolarimetric evidence of convective collapse and destruction of magnetic flux by upward-moving fronts in the quiet Sun. The observational...

Here we report on the first observational investigation of the Zeeman effect in the G band around 4305 Å. Our spectropolarimetric observations of sunspots with...

Recently we were able to retrieve the Earth's transmission spectrum through lunar eclipse observations. This spectrum showed that the depth of most molecular...

Context. Ellerman bombs (EBs) are short-lived emission features, characterised by extended wing emission in hydrogen Balmer lines. Until now, no distinct...

Irradiance measurements from the IPHIR instrument flown on the Phobos 2 mission to Mars are used to derive phase differences and gains between broadband...

We confirm recent results about the differences in temperature and magnetic field strength between the umbra of large and small sunspots. Five Stokes I- and V...

We investigate the influence of scattering processes in the continuum on the formation of lines in static, one dimensional atmosphere. It is shown that the...

The ability of new instruments for providing accurate inferences of vector magnetic fields and line-of-sight velocities of the solar plasma depends a great deal...

Scattering polarization tends to dominate the linear polarization signals of the Ca II 8542 Å line in weakly magnetized areas (B ≲ 100 G), especially when the...
