摘要: Proper motions of granules are measured by local correlation tracking on a 4.5 h image sequence obtained with the Swedish Vacuum Tower Telescope at La Palma. A 2 arcsec spatial low-pass filter is applied to obtain meso-scale flow patterns. We find that their characteristic lifetime (1/e value) has lower limit five six hours. Comparison simultaneous co-spatial chromospheric Ca II K2V images shows these flows sweep supergranulation cells clean in about same period. “persistent flasher”, seen during three hours , migrates magnetic network as if it were photospheric cork.
