Abstract

Our knowledge about the origin and transformation mechanisms of the bright points in the solar network has a significant role in understanding the ejection of materials and the transfer of energy into the solar corona. Outside the active region of the Sun (AR), although it is called the Quiet Sun (QS), various types of small-scale bright phenomena constantly occur within the boundary of the super granular cells above the magnetic network. Knowing the bright points is an effective key in considering the solar spicules. In this research, we study the solar transition region bright points and examine their apparent velocities with the local correlation tracking Fourier (FLCT) method. The results illustrate that these points differ in apparent velocity direction and brightness. Their lifetime and average horizontal velocity were estimated at 100 s and 4 kms-1, respectively. Recently, a new group of solar spicules has been observed, those lifetimes are around 100 s, and show a typical horizontal velocity of 3-4 kms-1. According to the analysis of the two-dimensional, apparent velocity of the bright points on the rosettes of the network, these points can be the disk counterpart of the type II spicules. In addition, the analysis of the two-dimensional field of velocities shows rotations that can cause the excitation of Alfvenic pulses.
