Scientific paper

Using two very high resolution, white-light plates of the solar granulation, the authors measured a characteristic size and intensity for facular points. The plates were obtained with the 50 cm refractor at Pic-du-Midi Observatory using a 60 Å bandpass filter center at 5750 Å. After adjustment for atmospheric and instrumental smearing, a characteristic size of 0.22 arc sec and a characteristic intensity of 1.3 to 1.5 times the mean continuum intensity were found.
