Line profiles and magnetic fields in the exclusively powerful solar flare of October 28, 2003: preliminary results

We investigate the X17.2/4B solar flare of October 28, 2003 which has been occupying the third place among X-ray fluxes since 1975. The echelle Zeeman spectrograms obtained at the Kyiv University Astronomical Observatory allow us to conclude the following: a) observed flare emission in some magnetos...

The echelle Zeeman spectrograms obtained at the Kyiv University Astronomical Observatory allow us to conclude the following: a) observed flare emission in some magnetosensitive metallic lines can produce a false magnetographic signal of opposite polarity in case of Babcock’s or filter magnetograph, b) considerable both horizontal and vertical magnetic field inhomogeneity existed in the flare.
