The fractional alignment ﹩{\sigma }_{0}^{2}(\alpha J)﹩ of the lower and highly excited levels (left panels) and the ratio of the Stokes Q and I emission coefficients εQ(ν, Θ)/εI(ν, Θ) (right panels) for selected EUV lines of the Fe X and Fe XI ions as a function of the radial distance R/RSun in the coronal model of Figure 1 of this paper. The top and bottom panels show the results for the Fe X and Fe XI ions, respectively. The level numbers, wavelengths, and transitions (in brackets) are indicated in the respective panels. Geometrical configuration (ΘLOS is the angle between the solar radius vector through the observed point and the LOS): off-limb observations (ΘLOS = 90°) of a radial magnetic field (θB = 0°). For all the Fe X and Fe XI lines shown, the intensity ﹩{I}_{{\rm{\max }}}﹩ at R/RSun = 1.0 (in units of 1011 photons cm−2 s−1 sr−1) and the absolute ratio ∣εQ/εI∣ at a radial distance of R/RSun = 1.5 are equal to or greater than the values specified at the top of the right panels. The positive Stokes-Q direction is the perpendicular to the magnetic field.
