Description
Inversion techniques are presently the most powerful tools to deduce
magnetic, dynamic, and thermal properties of the solar plasma from
polarization line profiles. The reliability and robustness of Stokes
inversions have been confirmed many times by means of numerical tests.
Part of the solar physics community, however, is still worried about the
uniqueness of the obtained solutions. In this presentation I clarify the
scope and the limitations of different Stokes inversion techniques and
discuss the challenges for inversion techniques for the near future.
