The use of spectro-polarimeter measurements
to determine the plasma heating
J. Jurcak, V. Martinez Pillet, M. Sobotka
We present the possible use of spectro-polarimeter measurements on similar set
of data recorded with La Palma Stokes Polarimeter attached to the Swedish Vacuum
Solar Telescope. The stratification over the solar atmosphere of different
physical parameters is retrieved from these data using the Stokes Inversion
based on Response functions (SIR). Coming out from the stratification of the magnetic
field strength and orientation of the magnetic field vector, we derive the vertical
component of electric current density. We also found spatial and height correlation
between the temperature enhancement and increase of electric current density, this could
be caused by the energy dissipation stored in the magnetic field configuration.
