Sun: Magnetic Field

Back to image index

Magnetfelder im Innern der Sonne nach einem Mean-Field-Modell. Die Oberflähe zeigt tatsählich beobachtete Sonnenflecken.

Magnetic fields in the solar interior according to a mean-field model. Th surface shows sunspots from a real observation.

Solar 3D tomography with Hinode: apparent flux density obtained directly from the measured polarimetric profiles. The circle indicates a strong magnetic field structure.

Solar 3D tomography with Hinode: 3-dimensional reconstruction of the temperature for the observed FOV in a bottom-up-view (deepest layer on top) to emphasize the rich structuring in the lower photosphere. Red/Orange colors indicate the hot granular regions while the dark colors show the cooler intergranular lanes.

Solar 3D tomography with Hinode: line-of-sight velocity for the reconstructed volume also in a bottom-up-view. Bright color represent upflows and dark colors the downflows in the intergranular regions. One nicely can identify the onset of strong downflows in the mid photosphere, please note again the bottom up representation.

Solar 3D tomography with Hinode: 3-dimensional reconstruction of line-of-sight magnetic field for the FOV (bottom up). Black and white represent the different magnetic polarities. This figure also provides a nice slice view of at least 3 magnetic structures in the front plane (X-Z plane).

Solar 3D tomography with Hinode: close up views of magnetic structures (bottom view). To allow a better "insight" into the 3-dimensional structure, the side walls are made transparent. Iso-surface of 175 Gauss field strength are shown from which one can identify many small scale "tube-like" magnetic structures.
