Caption

Example of high-quality magnetic field data from the solar atmosphere acquired with GREGOR. The three sets of panels show the strength (left), inclination (middle), and azimuth (right) of the magnetic field vector at the edge of a sunspot. The sub-panels show different heights in the atmosphere from the photosphere to the chromosphere
