| Abstract: |
Due to the highly non-linear relation between polarization and flux density the conversion of Stokes data to inclination angles is very sensitive to the way one deals with magnetic structuring on subpixel scales. Exploring the complex behavior of the 6301-6302 Å line system we have identified observables that allow a robust determination of the field inclination with minimal model dependence. The angular distribution is found to be strongly peaked around the vertical direction for large flux densities but widens as the flux density decreases to smoothly approach the isotropic case for zero flux density. |
