Solar magneto-convection
  An overview is given about recent developments and results of comprehensive simulations of magneto-convective processes in the near-surface layers and photosphere of the Sun. Simulations now cover a wide range of phenomena, from whole active regions, over individual sunspots and pores, magnetic flux concentrations and vortices in intergranular lanes, down to the intricate mixed-polarity structure of the magnetic field generated by small-scale dynamo action. The simulations in concert with high-resolution observations have provided breakthroughs in our understanding of the structure and dynamics of the magnetic fields in the solar photosphere.
