Description
The He I triplet at 10830 Å has a great potential for determining
the magnetic field vector in the upper chromosphere. The triplet is
Zeeman sensitive (Landé factors 2.0, 1.75 and 1.25) and shows the
signature of the Hanle effect under appropriate conditions.
Additionally, the Zeeman sublevels are influenced by the Paschen-Back
effect leading to changes in strength and in position of the Zeeman
components of the transitions forming the triplet. In this work we
calculate the influence of the Paschen-Back effect on the Stokes
profiles and investigate its relevance to inversions on
spectro-polarimetric data obtained with the Tenerife Infrared
Polarimeter (TIP) at the German Vacuum Tower Telescope (VTT).
