Abstract
AbstractHigh frequency acoustic waves have been suggested as a source of mechanical heating in the quiet solar chromosphere. To investigate this, we have observed intensity oscillations of several lines in the frequency interval 1.64-70mHz using data from the VTT Tenerife and the Dunn Solar Telescope at the National Solar Observatory. Our analysis of Fe i 543.45 nm, Fe i 543.29 nm and the G-band, indicate that the majority of oscillations are connected with the magnetic fields and do not provide sufficient mechanical flux for the heating of the chromosphere. This correlation is also observed in quiet Sun areas.
