Scientific paper

The Solar Optical Telescope (SOT) abord Hinode is a diffraction limitted telescope with a 50cm appeature. SOT provides high accuracy measurements of vector magnetic fields under unprecidentedly stable condition without the atmospheric seeing. The combination of high angular resolution (~0.32arcsec) with the high polarimetric accuracy (~0.1%) enable us to explore the new view of the small scale magnetic fields on the Sun, i.e., their formation, dynamics and influence on the upper atmosphere. In this paper, we will present the recent discoveries of the small scale magnetic fields made by SOT/Hinode, with a focus on the ubiquitous transient magnetic fields in the quiet sun, formation of the magnetic flux tubes, and dynamics of small scale magnetic fields in sunspots. Future perspective with a large apperture telescope will also be discussed.
