Abstract:We have measured the proper motion of magnetic elements on the quiet Sun by means of local correlation tracking. The existence of a pattern in the intranetwork (IN) flow is confirmed. This velocity field is consistent with the direct Doppler measurement of the horizontal component of the supergranular velocity field. The IN elements generally move toward the network boundaries. By tracking test points we confirm that the magnetic elements converge in areas corresponding to the magnetic network. But because the IN elements are of random polarity, they cannot contribute to the growth or maintenance of the magnetic network.By calculating the cross correlation between the magnetogram and Dopplergram, we confirm that the supergranule boundaries and the magnetic network are roughly correlated.
