Photosphere

On the strength of solar intra-network fields.

The combination of the German Vacuum Tower Telescope and the prototype of ZIMPOL I (Zuerich Imaging Stokes Polarimeter I), a novel, very sensitive imaging polarimeter, has resulted in the first spectra of solar intra-network (IN) fields in circular …

Multicolor Continuum Analysis of the Solar Granulation in Quiet and Active Regions

A set of narrow-band filtergrams of the solar photosphere recorded in three widely separated true continuum windows and in Mg I b1 with a spatial resolution of about 0.5 arcsec is analyzed. The influence of small-scale magnetic fields on the …
