Abstract

Preliminary results of magnetic field measurements in small sunspots from spectrograms obtained with the aid of the McMath Solar Telescope at the Kitt Peak National Observatory are presented. The measured intensities are greater than or equal to about 1200 Gauss. Furthermore, a broadening of the Fei line λ6302.508 A was found in some places of intergranular space. The importance of intergranular space as a possible potential earliest stage of sunspot development is mentioned.
