MSDP data processing


Animated GIF file: raw continuum intensity in alternate I+V and I-V polarization states

Animated GIF file: continuum intensity in alternate I+V and I-V polarization states, AFTER DESTRETCHING

Animated GIF file: dopplershifts in alternate I+V and I-V polarization states, AFTER DESTRETCHING, at 144 mA of the line core. The doppler velocity and the magnetic field are respectively deduced from the sum and difference of these two quantities

Signal to noise ration


Animated GIF file: magnetic field deduced from a single pair I+V, I-V with/without destretching, and with destretching and summing of 10 couples I+V, I-V

Variation of magnetic fieds with depth


Animated GIF file: magnetic field deduced from a single pair I+V, I-V with destretching, at 144 mA (low chromosphere) and 288 mA (high photosphere) from the line core, altitude difference 160 km
