Hinode telescope is Japanese project which was constructed and launched by ISAS/JAXA, in cooperation with NAOJ (Japan), NASA (USA) and STFC (UK) Telescope is operated by named organizations
as well as ESA and NTS (Norway). This study was funded by the Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv, No.16BF023-01, No.16BF023-02 projects.
Indirect estimations of diameters of the smallest flux tubes outside sunspots are made using SOT/Hinode observations of Fei 6301.5 and 6302.5 lines. These estimations are based on the comparison of measured effective magnetic field strength Bₑff in named lines. It is shown that Bₑff (6301.5)/Bₑff (6302.5) ≈ 1.3 in the range Bₑff = 40-300 G, and Bₑff (6301.5)/Bₑff (6302.5) ≈ 1.0 for Bₑff ≤ 10-20 G. The first case corresponds to the two-component magnetic field with kG flux tubes and weak background field, whereas the second one corresponds to background field without flux tubes. Assuming that the field range Bₑff = 10-40 G corresponds to the case with only one flux tube in each pixel, the flux tube diameters should be 15-30 km. Possible influence of the brightness contrast and the Zeeman saturation could change this estimation by approximately 20%.
