We explore the G-band and H-line intensity oscillation spectra both separately and comparatively via their relative phase differences, time delays and cross-coherences. In the non-magnetic situations, both sets of fluctuations show strong oscillatory power in the 3 - 7 mHz band centered at 4.5 mHz, but this is suppressed as magnetic field increases. A relative phase analysis gives a time delay of H-line after G-band of 20\\pm1 s in non-magnetic situations implying a mean effective height difference of 140 km. The maximum coherence is at 4 - 7 mHz. Under strong magnetic influence the measured delay time shrinks to 11 s with the peak coherence near 4 mHz. A second coherence maximum appears between 7.5 - 10 mHz. Investigation of the locations of this doubled-frequency coherence locates it in diffuse rings outside photospheric magnetic structures. Some possible interpretations of these results are offered.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2012-06-19T23:20:31.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "85-02" ], "keywords": [ "lower solar atmosphere", "magnetoacoustic waves", "rings outside photospheric magnetic structures", "diffuse rings outside photospheric magnetic", "co-spatial magnetic field measurements" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "doi": "10.1007/s11207-012-0059-9", "journal": "Solar Physics", "year": 2012, "month": "Sep", "volume": 280, "number": 1, "pages": 125 }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 19, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 1118800, "adsabs": "2012SoPh..280..125L" } } }
