| Abstract: | We report new properties of solar magnetic fields in a quiet region as found from their magnetic power spectra. The power spectra of network and intranetwork fields (non-network fields) are separately calculated from a Big Bear magnetogram obtained with moderately high spatial resolution of 1.5 arc sec and a high sensitivity reaching 2 Mx cm-2. The effect of seeing on the power spectrum has been corrected using Fried's (1966) Modulation Transfer Function with the seeing parameter determined in our previous analysis of the magnetogram. As a result, it is found that the two-dimensional power spectra of network and non-network fields appear in a form:  (
1) 
-1 and (
1)
-3.5. Here
0  0.47 Mm-1 for network fields and
0 0.69 Mm-1 for non-network fields, the latter of which corresponds to the size of mesogranulation;
1 3.0 Mm-1 for both, which is about the size of a large granule. The network field spectrum below
0 appears nearly flat, whereas that of non-network fields instead decreases towards lower wave numbers as (
)
1.3. The turnover behavior of magnetic field spectra around
1 coincides with that found for the velocity power spectrum, which may justify the kinetic approach taken in previous theoretical studies of the solar magnetic power spectra. |
