sun: PLAGES

Direct measurements of flux tube inclinations in solar plages.

Observations of the full Stokes vector in three spectral lines indicate that flux tubes in solar plages have an average inclination in the photosphere of 14deg with respect to the local vertical. Most flux tubes are inclined in the eastwards …

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 …
