Scientific paper

The solutions of the transfer equations for polarized light in a Milne-Eddington atmosphere are used to evaluate the importance of magnetic intensification as a possible mechanism for interpreting the net amount of linear polarization observed in broad-band measurements of magnetic regions. Magneto-optical effects are taken into account properly. Curves of growth for linear polarization are given for different values of the magnetic field vector. Theoretical results are compared with recent observations in sunspots.
