Abstract:
Since the discovery that sunspots are highly magnetized by Hale in the early 1900s, magnetism has become increasingly important in our understanding of processes on the Sun and in the Heliosphere. Many current and planned instruments are capable of diagnosing magnetic fields in the solar atmosphere through polarimetry, i.e., the measurement of the polarization state of light. Four out of five “first-light” instruments of the newly commissioned Daniel K. Inouye Solar Telescope are polarimeters. The Visible SpectroPolarimeter (ViSP) is one of these instruments, designed to operate in the visible and near-infrared spectrum. I will briefly review the history, importance, and challenges of measuring magnetic field in the solar atmosphere, discuss techniques for magnetometry, and describe the ViSP and its capabilities.
