Abstract

When unipolar sunspots are observed in the linearly polarized radiation represented by the Stokes parameters Q and U of magneto-sensitive spectral lines, their images display a complicated and interesting configuration. This is caused by the magneto-optical effect and also is connected with the 3-D structure of spot magnetic fields. In the process of numerical simulation it is possible to infer the regularity of variation of the angle of inclination of magnetic lines of force with distance from the spot center.
