Abstract

Photospheric bright points are proxies for small-scale magnetic flux concentrations.These magnetic elements are thought to be the building blocks of the solar magnetic field and are important to understand many physical processes on the Sun, e.g. the variability of the solar irradiance.Because of their small size (100-200 km in diameter) the observations of photospheric bright points put special requirements on the seeing conditions, instrumental setup and post-processing techniques ...
