Scientific paper

Full Stokes polarimetry is obtained using the National Solar Observatory Vacuum Tower Telescope (NSOVTT) at Sacramento Peak while observing the magnetically sensitive infrared Fe I line at wavelength of 1.56 microns. A technique is described which makes use of the high magnetic resolution in this spectral range to remove instrumental polarization from observed Stokes Q, U, and V line profiles.
