We carried out the Stokes diagnostics of new two-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic models with a continuous evolution of magnetogranulation in the course of two hours of the hydrodynamic (solar) time. Our results agree satisfactorily with the…
Vertical magnetic fields have been known to exist in the internetwork region for decades, while the properties of horizontal magnetic fields have recently been extensively investigated with \textit{Hinode}. Vertical and horizontal magnetic…
Three different maps of the quiet Sun, observed with the Advanced Stokes Polarimeter (ASP) and the Diffraction-Limited Stokes Polarimeter (DLSP), show evidence of strong ($\simeq$1700 G) and weak ($<$500 G) fields coexisting within the…
Recent work suggested that the traditional picture of the corona above the quiet Sun being rooted in the magnetic concentrations of the chromospheric network alone is strongly questionable. Building on that previous study we explore the…

Quiet Sun magnetism plays an important role in the global energy balance of the solar atmosphere. The study of the magnetism of the quiet Sun has been a major effort in the last decades, and, as a result, very important advances in our…
The Mg II h&k lines are amongst the best diagnostic tools of the upper solar chromosphere. This region of the atmosphere is of particular interest as it is the lowest region of the Sun's atmosphere where the magnetic field is dominant in…
High levels of horizontal magnetic flux have been reported in the quiet-Sun internetwork, often based on Stokes profile inversions. Here we introduce a new method for deducing the inclination of magnetic elements and use it to test magnetic…

We aim to test the reliability of determining the line-of-sight magnetic field from a 3D MHD simulation of a unipolar region. In contrast to earlier similar studies, we consider the full solar disk, i.e. considering the full centre-to-limb…
The existence of a turbulent small-scale solar surface dynamo is likely, considering existing numerical and laboratory experiments, as well as comparisons of a small-scale dynamo in MURaM simulations with Hinode observations. We find the…
Studying the emergence of magnetic fields is essential for understanding the physical mechanisms behind various phenomena in the solar atmosphere. Most importantly, the emerging fields offer valuable insights into how energy and mass are…
Small-scale internetwork (IN) features are thought to be the major source of fresh magnetic flux in the quiet Sun. During its first science flight in 2009, the balloon-borne observatory Sunrise captured images of the magnetic fields in the…
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 requires a probability density function (PDF), i.e., a function P(B) describing…

Among many other measurable quantities the summer of 2009 saw a considerable low in the radiative output of the Sun that was temporally coincident with the largest cosmic ray flux ever measured at 1AU. A hemispheric asymmetry in magnetic…
We present the first simultaneous infrared (IR) and visible spectro-polarimetric observations of a solar internetwork region. The Fe I lines at 6301.6 A, 6302.5 A, 15648 A, and 15652 A were observed, with a lag of only 1 min, using highly…
