Abstract

The SolO-VIM instrument will be a two-dimensional full-Stokes spectro-polarimeter which will provide diffraction-limited vector-magnetograms, Dopplergrams, and continuum images of the solar photosphere. The instrument's performance depends on various parameters such as aperture diameter, filter characteristics, spectralline sampling, and orbital position. Here we compute Stokes profiles in realistic 3D MHD simulations. These synthetic data are then degraded to match the output expected from the VIM instrument, and subsequently inverted using a Milne-Eddington atmosphere. We present parameter studies in order to set up minimum requirements on limitations of VIM's capabilities.
