The data were recorded with the new Tenerife Infrared Polarimeter (TIP-II) at the German Vacuum Tower Telescope (VTT) on 2005 May 18. We inverted the He Stokes profiles using multiple atmospheric components. The observed He Stokes profiles display a remarkably wide variety of shapes. Most of the profiles show very broad Stokes I absorptions and complex and spatially variable Stokes V signatures. The inversion of the profiles shows evidence of different atmospheric blue- and redshifted components of the He I lines within the resolution element (1 arcsec), with supersonic velocities of up to 100 km/s. Up to five different atmospheric components are found in the same profile. We show that even these complex profiles can be reliably inverted.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2011-01-28T16:24:53.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "active filament", "multicomponent", "german vacuum tower telescope", "multiple atmospheric components", "stokes profiles display" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "journal": "Astronomy and Astrophysics", "year": 2011, "month": "Feb", "volume": 526 }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2011A&A...526A..42S", "inspire": 885902 } } }
