Magnetic Flux Loss and Flux Transport in a Decaying Active Region
M. Kubo, B. W. Lites, T. Shimizu +1
We estimate the temporal change of magnetic flux perpendicular to the solar surface in a decaying active region by using a time series of the spatial distribution of vector magneti…
Disintegration of Magnetic Flux in Decaying Sunspots as Observed with the Hinode SOT
M. Kubo, B. W. Lites, K. Ichimoto +8
Continuous observations of sunspot penumbrae with the Solar Optical Telescope aboard \textit{Hinode} clearly show that the outer boundary of the penumbra fluctuates around its aver…
Frequent Occurrence of High-speed Local Mass Downflows on the Solar Surface
T. Shimizu, B. W. Lites, Y. Katsukawa +7
We report on new spectro-polarimetric measurements with simultaneous filter imaging observation, revealing the frequent appearance of polarization signals indicating high-speed, pr…
Emergence of a Helical Flux Rope Under an Active Region Prominence
Takenori J. Okamoto, Saku Tsuneta, Bruce W. Lites +12
Continuous observations were obtained of active region 10953 with the Solar Optical Telescope (SOT) on board the \emph{Hinode} satellite during 2007 April 28 to May 9. A prominence…
Flare Ribbons Observed with G-band and FeI 6302A Filters of the Solar Optical Telescope on Board Hinode
H. Isobe, M. Kubo, T. Minoshima +11
The Solar Optical Telescope (SOT) on board Hinode satellite observed an X3.4 class flare on 2006 December 13. Typical two-ribbon structure was observed, not only in the chromospher…
Formation Process of a Light Bridge Revealed with the Hinode Solar Optical Telescope
Y. Katsukawa, T. Yokoyama, T. E. Berger +10
The Solar Optical Telescope (SOT) aboard HINODE successfully and continuously observed a formation process of a light bridge in a matured sunspot of the NOAA active region 10923 fo…
