Scientific paper

High resolution observations of quiet Sun areas obtained with the New Solar Telescope (NST) in Big Bear Solar Observatory revealed surprisingly storming small-scale chromospheric dynamics. We thus discovered tiny chromospheric jets originating in the ubiquitous lanes that surround individual granules characterizing the solar surface. These jets do not appear to be exclusively associated with photospheric bright points and/or vertices of the intergranular lanes. They seem to have sufficient energy to resolve the mystery of why the overlying chromosphere is hotter than the photosphere. We will further address the nature of these chromospheric jets and their relationship to ambient magnetic fields by combining high resolution data from NST instruments and Hinode observatory.
