The Strength of Quiet Sun Magnetic Fields
We present new quantitative measurements of magnetic fields on the quiet Sun. The object was (a) to measure magnetic field strengths, and (b) to test the “kilogauss model,” which posits that the apparently weak fields are actually subtelescopic knots of kilogauss fields with small filling factors. We used a new arrangement we call the spectro-videomagnetograph (SPVMG), which applies the videoma...
متن کاملMagnetic field emergence in quiet Sun granules
Aims. We describe a new form of small-scale magnetic flux emergence in the quiet Sun. This process seems to take vertical magnetic fields from the solar interior to the photosphere, where they appear above granular convection cells. Methods. High-cadence time series of spectropolarimetric measurements obtained by Hinode in a quiet region near disk center are analyzed. We extract line parameters...
متن کاملProperties of magnetic elements in the quiet Sun using the marker-controlled watershed method
Context. The quiet Sun is an important part of understanding the global magnetic properties of the Sun. A recently launched observation system, named HINODE, provides a lot of high-resolution images for studying the quiet Sun. Obviously, it is time-consuming to analyze these images by hand. It is desirable to develop a technique for recognizing magnetic elements, thus automatically computing ma...
متن کاملWavelet Phase Coherence Analysis: Application to a Quiet-sun Magnetic Element
A new application of wavelet analysis is presented that utilizes the inherent phase information residing within the complex Morlet transform. The technique is applied to a weak solar magnetic network region, and the temporal variation of phase difference between TRACE 1700 8 and SOHO/SUMER C ii 1037 8 intensities is shown. We present, for the first time in an astrophysical setting, the applicat...
متن کاملConvective intensification of magnetic fields in the quiet Sun
Kilogauss-strength magnetic fields are often observed in intergranular lanes at the photosphere in the quiet Sun. Such fields are stronger than the equipartition field Be, corresponding to a magnetic energy density that matches the kinetic energy density of photospheric convection, and comparable with the field Bp that exerts a magnetic pressure equal to the ambient gas pressure. We present an ...
