Quiet Sun magnetic fields: an observational view

L Bellot Rubio, D Orozco Suárez - Living Reviews in Solar Physics, 2019 - Springer
The quiet Sun is the region of the solar surface outside of sunspots, pores, and plages. In
continuum intensity it appears dominated by granular convection. However, in polarized …

Magnetic flux transport at the solar surface

J Jiang, DH Hathaway, RH Cameron, SK Solanki… - Space Science …, 2014 - Springer
After emerging to the solar surface, the Sun's magnetic field displays a complex and intricate
evolution. The evolution of the surface field is important for several reasons. One is that the …
