Scientific paper

The observational evidence for the formation of solar magnetic flux tubes induced by convective instability was obtained by Hinode Solar Optical Telescope (SOT). Based on the seeing free observation with SOT, we found the cooling of an equipartition field strength flux tube precedes a transient downflow reaching 6 km s-1 and the intensification of the field strength to 2 kG. These observations agree very well with the theoretical predictions. Convective instability in the flux tubes is discussed by comparing the observations with numerical models.
