Abstract
Solar observations now require many capabilities: high resolution to detect fine flux tubes, polarization-free optics to measure the vector magnetic field, spectral range including many lines to disentangle thermodynamic from magnetic signatures. The site of Canary Islands, the active optics, the Cassegrain telescope, the long spectrographs and the universal filter of THEMIS fulfill many conditions for major advances in the near future of solar physics.
