  1. 1. Investigation of recovery of stellar magnetic field geometries from simulated spectropolarimetric data

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för fysik och astronomi

    Author : Ahmed Al Kanale; [2017]
    Keywords : Magnetic Doppler Imaging MDI code INVERS10;

    Abstract : Powerful remote sensing techniques can covert time variability of polarization profiles of stellar spectral lines into vector magnetic fields maps of stellar surfaces. These techniques are widely applied to interpret observations but have been tested using only simplistic tests. READ MORE
