Descripción
We present spectropolarimetric observations in the He I 1083.0 nm
multiplet of a quiescent, hedgerow solar prominence. The data were taken
with the Tenerife Infrared Polarimeter attached to the German Vacuum
Tower Telescope at the Observatorio del Teide (Tenerife; Canary Islands;
Spain). The observed He I circular and linear polarization signals are
dominated by the Zeeman effect and by atomic level polarization and the
Hanle effect, respectively. These observables are sensitive to the
strength and orientation of the magnetic field vector at each spatial
point of the field of view. We determine the magnetic field vector of
the prominence by applying the HAZEL inversion code to the observed
Stokes profiles. We briefly discuss the retrieved magnetic field vector
configuration.
