    TIC: A Stokes Inversion Code for Scattering Polarization with Partial Frequency Redistribution and Arbitrary Magnetic Fields
    We present the Tenerife Inversion Code (TIC), which has been developed to infer the magnetic and plasma properties of the solar chromosphere and transition...

    Velocity fields associated with the magnetic component of solar faculae
    Theoretical models are developed to account for the asymmetries observed by Stenflo et al. (1984) in the Stokes V profiles of solar faculae. The approximate...

    Vortex Motions in the Solar Atmosphere
    Vortex flows, related to solar convective turbulent dynamics at granular scales and their interplay with magnetic fields within intergranular lanes, occur...

    Wave Conversion, Decay, and Heating in a Partially Ionized Two-fluid Magneto-atmosphere
    A ray-theoretic phase-space description of linear waves in a two-fluid (charges and neutrals) magnetized plasma is used to calculate analytic decay rates and...
