Description
The magnetic sensitivity of the solar spectrum is caused by the Zeeman
effect and by a variety of less familiar physical mechanisms by means of
which a magnetic field can create and destroy spectral line
polarization. This paper highlights how plasma diagnostic tools based on
them could help us to explore the magnetism of the quiet regions of the
solar photosphere and chromosphere. A few suggestions for increasing the
discovery potential of some telescopes and polarimeters are also given.
