Acquisition and Reduction Procedures for MOF Doppler-Magnetograms. [solar observation

Defects in the first magneto-optical filter (MOF) magnetograms, particularly the problem of the apparent contamination between velocity and magnetic fields, are discussed. It is found that a correct acquisition and reduction procedure gives cleaner results. A vector magnetograph is suggested. The vector field at coronal levels is calculated, using one MOF longitudinal magnetogram.
