✦ Synopsis

The center-to-limb variation of the root-mean-square granular contrast at 5520,~ is deduced from a set of high-spatial-resolution filtergrams obtained with the Sacramento Peak Observatory Vacuum Tower Telescope. The rms contrast is observed to decrease monotonically between 1.0 and 0.6, and then increase slightly at p-= 0.4. This result is compared with the results of Edmonds ( 1962) and with the results of Pravdjuk et al. (1974).

The model is that of . This model is in MHSE and includes tension forces. Results are presented in the form of contour maps, cross-sections of the contrast on axis, and integrated contrast as a function of viewing angle. Results are generally consistent with those of , but not with observations of .

A preliminary analysis of recent measurements of the brightness ratio spot-photosphere of various authors leads to the result, that the limb-darkening of the umbra is considerably less than that of the photosphere. The small value of the center-to-limb variation implies a very small temperature grad

Using photoelectric observations in the Fe 5576/~ line we obtained line-of-sight velocities at nine different positions on the solar disk, as functions of one horizontal co-ordinate and time. With the help of the Fast Fourier Transform algorithm we calculated two-dimensional power spectra (horizonta
