Abstract
The simultaneous measurements of longitudinal magnetic fields in lines λ5250 and λ6103, the line of sight velocities and intensities in these lines at some fixed point (area 2″.3 × 4″.5) within the moderately strong (∼ 100 G) areas of solar magnetic fields were examined to find the possible fluctuations of m.f. with time. No fluctuations were found which cannot be correlated with the simultaneously measured seeing conditions such as contrast, image excursions and scintillations for characteristic periods less than 5m. The possibility of ∼ 5m oscillations of magnetic fields correlated with the well known sight-line velocity oscillations is pointed out.Keywords
