Small-scale topology of solar atmosphere dynamics : II : granulation, K2v grains and waves

Abstract

We continue studying the small-scale topology of dynamical phenomena in the quiet-sun internetwork atmosphere throug statistical estimation of the co-location probability of different fine-structure elements and wave modes.In this paper we chart spatial alignments between the granular brig tness structuring of the photosphere, Ca ii K 2V brig tness patterns in the c romosphere,and wave amplitude patterns in bot regimes as a function of time delay between the occurrences of the various features.These charts confirm the presence of excess 2-4 min waves above dark intergranular lanes, the absence of ex cess 5 min waves above bright granules,the absence of expected alignments between photospheric and chromosp eric wave patterning,and the broad-band nature of Ca II K 2V grain formation.In addition,they show significant alignments at large time delays that seem to be regulated by mesoscale patterning and pattern migration.
