Magnetic fields not only provide a basic tool for observing galaxies but constitute an important clue to interpret many dynamic processes taking place in them...
Magnetic Fields of the Quiet Sun: A New Quantitative Perspective From Hinode
This article summarizes results of studies presented in two papers already published: Lites et al. (2007a); Lites et al. (2007b). Please see these for further...
Magnetic Fields of the Quiet Sun: Distribution of Field Strengths
The quiet Sun photospheric plasma has a variety of magnetic field strengths going from zero to 1800 G. The empirical characterization of these field strengths...
Magnetic Fingerprints of Solar and Stellar Oscillations
Waves connect all the layers of the Sun, from its interior to the upper atmosphere. It is becoming clear now the important role of magnetic field on the wave...
Magnetic Flux Emergence and Jet Formation in Coronal Holes
Recent observations of coronal holes with Hinode show with unprecedented detail the launching of fast and hot jets. Many of these jets are found to coincide...
Magnetic Flux Emergence In Granular Convection: Radiative MHD Simulations And Hinode SOT Observations
We model the emergence of buoyant magnetic flux from the convection zone into the photosphere by means of 3D radiative MHD simulations using the MURaM code. In...
