Descripción
The net circular polarization observed in solar faculae (Stenflo et al., 1984) follows a law expected from the combination of velocity and magnetic field gradients in the photosphere. To show this, the theoretical curve of growth (net circular polarization produced by a single line versus its absorption coefficient) predicted by this mechanism is developed. An empirical curve of growth with more than 80 Fe I lines is also constructed. The agreement between theory and observation seems to point toward this mechanism as responsible for circular polarization in faculae at the disk center.

    Near-ultraviolet absorption distribution of primitive asteroids from photometric surveys: II. Collisional families
    Context. Primitive asteroids consisting of mainly phyllosilicates and opaque minerals have great variation at near-ultraviolet (NUV) wavelengths (0.35–0.5 μm). The absorption in NUV could be indicative of phyllosilicates that reflect their formation environments such as the distribution of water, temperature, and pressure. The asteroid collisional

    Exploring spectropolarimetric inversions using neural fields: Solar chromospheric magnetic field under the weak-field approximation
    Context. Full-Stokes polarimetric datasets, originating from slit-spectrograph or narrow-band filtergrams, are routinely acquired nowadays. The data rate is increasing with the advent of bi-dimensional spectropolarimeters and observing techniques that allow long-time sequences of high-quality observations. There is a clear need to go beyond the
