Comparing Observed with Simulated Solar-disk-center Scattering Polarization in the Sr i 4607 Å Line
Solar magnetic fields alter scattering polarization in spectral lines like Sr i at 4607 Å via the Hanle effect, making it a potential diagnostic for small-scale, mixed-polarity photospheric magnetic fields. Recently, observational evidence for scattering polarization in the Sr i 4607 Å line at the s...
