Solar High Resolution Studies . ... Dynamic magnetic fields continuously emerging from the solar interior on a wide range of scales, and their interaction with convectively-driven plasma flows, play a major role in shaping the whole solar atmosphere. Even though the fundamental spatial scales of turbulence and magnetic fields are still unreachable with present-day telescopes, polarimetric observations at the highest possible resolution will allow important insights into these issues. ...
