Abstract

The Hinode’s Solar Optical Telescope has revealed that the solar chromosphere is full of dynamical nature and much more dynamic than our thought. Observations of chromospheric dynamics in sunspot light bridges provides a new insight on the magnetic field topology for causing magnetic reconnection in the solar atmosphere and the process to supply and maintain the twisted flux in light bridges.
