Properties of THMF
• Receptive to convective motion– Properties clearly different from emerging flux driven by Parker
instability (see Ishikawa et al 2008 A&A Hinode special issue)
• Magnetic fields strength lower than equi-partition• Very low filling factor of 0.2 (but need correction for
scattering)• Extremely high occurrence rate• Same occurrence rate between PL and QS in spite of x8
difference in vertical flux• Essentially no directivity for all the event• Directivity exist for the strong LP events, indicating
influence from global fields

Local dynamo process Open issues
• Convection zone all over the sun may have statistically-stationary accumulation of HMF (reservoir).
• If no or little dissipation (unlikely), dynamo is not needed.
• If local dynamo, what is dissipation process?– Reconnection with vertical fields? – Reconnection with horizontal fields?– Is turbulent diffusion working for HTMF?– In photosphere and/or in chromosphere?
• Relationship with hidden magnetism

Hidden magnetism as revealed with Hanle effect(Trujillo Bueno et al Nature 2004)
Are the THMFs tip of the iceberg for hidden magnetism?
This 400G cutoff is real, showing no kG horizontal field. Since equi-partition field increases with depth, this suggests very shallow local dynamo.
Sun is covered with 60-130G HF
Zeeman isnot sensitiveenough.

(b) Flux tube cools due to radiation loss, and down flow grows.
(c) Flux tube shrinks due to the decreased pressure inside, and then the field strength increases; kilo-gauss flux tube appears.

SOT-SP Observations of a kilo-gauss field strength flux tube
The initial field strength of ~400 G is intensified up to ~ 2000 G as the downflow grows to 6 km/s in 150 s. The field strength then remains above 1000 G throughout the sequence.
A transient upflow of ~2 km/s at the end of the sequence.
The evolution of field strength, line of sight velocity, and continuum intensity observed at the central pixel of the magnetic feature of interest; ME inversion was used.

Interpretation
(1) Due to thermal isolation from the surroundings by the magnetic fields, the radiative cooling of a flux tube drives convective intensification, which causes a strong downflow.
(2) The field strength in the flux tube is intensified as the flux tube is evacuated with the downflow, keeping pressure balance with the surroundings
(3) The surface of unity optical depth goes down as the flux tube is evacuated, and the temperature at the surface is increased by the radiation from the surroundings whose temperature is higher than that at the higher layer; the continuum intensity consequently increases (Spruit 1976).
(4) The downward flow bounces back at the dense bottom layer, and the upward motion appears. Such "rebounds" have also been seen by Bellot Rubio et al. (2001) and Socas-Navarro (2005).
The Observations are naturally explained with the convective collapse model.

Horizontal fields in plage
• Receptive to the convective flow
• Horizontal magnetic fields appear in the field free regions.
• We have similar horizontal field in the quit sun (Centeno et al)
