The authors use the weakening of temperature sensitive spectral lines (Fe I λ5250.2 and λ5247.1) in a strong plage region to derive a lower limit (≈1.4 of the quiet photospheric value) for the continuum intensity in magnetic flux concentrations. This suggests an identification of magnetic elements with the observed photospheric bright points. The authors discuss the implications of this result for the quantitative determination of magnetic flux and propose a procedure for obtaining information on the physical structure of the non-magnetic surroundings of flux concentrations.
