Estimation of the flux tube diameters outside sunspots using Hinode observations. Preliminary results

Lozitsky, V. G.; Botygina, O. O.; Gordovskyy, M. Yu.

Indirect estimations of diameters of the smallest flux tubes outside sunspots are made using SOT/Hinode observations of Fe I 6301.5 and 6302.5 lines. These estimations are based on the comparison of measured effective magnetic field strength B_{eff} in named lines. It is shown that B_{eff}(6301.5)/B_{eff}(6302.5)≈ 1.3 in the range B_{eff}=40-300 G…
