This research paper discusses high-resolution observations of solar magnetic elements and their structure, including discrete flux tubes and ribbon-like structures. The findings suggest a two-component model for plage and enhanced network regions. The study also proposes further research into MHD simulations and magnetic flux generation.

1. Introduction 1)Motivation High temporal and space observation 2) Previous observations and theories ‘magnetic element hypothesis’ in active and quiet network regions discrete flux tubes ~100km ~kilogauss
1. Introduction 3)Main Results a) the magnetic structure with ~100km: ‘ribbon’ and discrete flux tubes b) two-component model: plage and enhanced network i) individual kilo-gauss flux tubes ii) ‘ribbon’ structure, from ~100 to ~1000 G
