Abstract

We investigate the relation between Trees of Fragmenting Granules (TFGs) and the locations of concentrated magnetic flux in internetwork areas. The former have previously been identified with mesogranulation. While a relationship has been suggested to exist between these features, no direct evidence has yet been provided. We present some preliminary results that show that concentrated magnetic flux indeed collects on the borders of TFGs.
