Spectropolarimetry with PEPSI at the LBT: accuracy vs. precision in magnetic field measurements
I. Ilyin, M. Woche, A. Hofmann, K.G. Strassmeier

Abstract

We present the design of a new spectropolarimeter PEPSI to be installed at the 2x8.4m Large Binocular Telescope in Arizona to measure the full set of Stokes parameters in spectral lines and discuss the factors which are limiting the accuracy and precision of such measurements.
