Observational Manifestations of Solar Magnetoconvection: Center-to-Limb Variation
Observational Manifestations of Solar Magnetoconvection: Center-to-Limb Variation
We present the first center-to-limb G-band images synthesized from high-resolution simulations of solar magnetoconvection. Toward the limb the simulations show "hilly" granulation with dark bands on the far side, bright granulation walls, and striated faculae, similar to observations. At disk center G-band bright points are flanked by dark lanes. The …
