Description

In this review the author discusses from a theoretical point of view the magnetic fields seen at the solar (stellar) surface. Since magnetic field lines have no ends, and the photospheric fields are mostly vertical, the discussion necessarily includes some of the properties of the fields above and below the photosphere.
