In order to express the range of polarimetric profiles which can be obtained in observations, depending on the intensity and direction of the magnetic field vector and on line strength, an atlas of theoretical Stokes profiles has been prepared for solar disk observations of magnetic regions. The approximations according to which the theoretical profiles have been computed include (1) unidirectional plane atmosphere with constant magnetic field, (2) linear behavior of the source function versus optical depth, (3) constant ratio between line and continuous absorption coefficients, and (4) normal Zeeman triplet with Gaussian profiles.
