in this section we analyze the synthesis of the 512 @xmath66 512 stokes spectra calculated from the dynamo simulation described in [ sec_mhd ] . we only use the numerical solution at one instant since the purpose of the work is to study the kind of spectra characterizing the stationary state of the simulation ( studie...
the synthetic stokes profiles have properties in common with those observed in the quiet sun . the intensity profiles are broadened by the magnetic fields in fair agreement with observational limits . differences between synthetic and observed polarized spectra can also be found . there is a shortage of stokes asymmetr...
