Quasi-periodic oscillations of small-scale magnetic structures and a specific method for measuring the differential rotation of the Sun

The SDO/HMI data with an angular resolution of 1 arcsec have been used to explore the differential rotation on the Sun, using an original p2p effect on the basis of the movement of small-scale magnetic structures in the photosphere of the Sun. It is shown that a stable p2p artifact inherent in the SDO/HMI data can be an effective tool for measuring the speed of various tracers on the Sun. In particular, in combination with the Fourier analysis, it allows us to investigate the differential rotation of the Sun at various latitudes. The differential rotation curve obtained from the SDO/HMI magnetograms by this method is in good agreement with the curves obtained earlier from ground-based observations

Long quasi-periodic oscillations of the faculae and pores

Aims. The main goal of this work is to analyze the structural and temporal evolution of small-scale magnetic structures (SSMSs) observed in the solar atmosphere, such as solitary faculae and pores, and reveal long quasi-periodic oscillations of these structures.Methods. The statistical method of regression analysis and the wavelet transform were used to obtain the periods of oscillations and dependences between the parameters of magnetic structures and periods of oscillations.Results. Long-period oscillations with periods in the interval of 18-260 min are found for the structurally stable phase of SSMSs at the level of the solar photosphere. These long-period oscillations were interpreted as natural oscillations of the structurally stable long-lived magnetic structures around their equilibrium position. These oscillations, which are of similar nature, are observed in the chromospheric bright formations associated with photospheric SSMSs. Dependences between the magnetic field and the continuum intensity of the facula elements were found. It is shown that the continuum intensity of a SSMS decreases when its magnetic field increases
