Del Toro Iniesta J.C. Introduction to Spectropolarimetry
Cambridge University Press, 2004, 227 pages

Spectropolarimetry embraces the most complete and detailed measurement and analysis of light, as well as its interaction with matter. This book provides an introductory overview of the subject because it is playing an increasingly important role in mode solar observations. Chapters include a comprehensive description of the polarization state of polychromatic light and its measurement; an overview of astronomical polarimetry; and the formation of spectral lines in the presence of a magnetic field. The text is a valuable reference for graduates and researchers in astrophysics, solar physics and optics.

Historical introduction
A review of some basic concepts
The polarization properties of quasi-monochromatic light
Linear optical systems acting on polarized light
Solar polarimetry
Absorption and dispersion
The radiative transfer equation
The RTE in the presence of a magnetic field
Solving the radiative transfer equation
