Faculae are a major source of spectral and radial velocity (RV) variability in the Sun and in Sun-like stars, yet their disk-integrated spectroscopic imprint remains insufficiently constrained. We investigate how faculae modify spectral line morphology and line-of-sight velocity signatures from disk centre to the limb using a physically consistent forward model based on 3D radiative...

Convective velocity fields in the solar photosphere are strongly modified by magnetic structures such as faculae, leading to measurable changes in spectral line shapes and shifts. These effects become increasingly complex away from the disk center. Accurately capturing this center-to-limb variation is essential for interpreting spatially resolved solar observations and for modeling unresolved...

Plasma flows in the near-surface region are thought to play an important role in replenishing the quiet Sun magnetic field. The interaction of magnetic fields with the complex flow structure causes these fields to reorganize at sub-granular scales. Horizontally aligned vortex flows near the edge of solar granules can grab magnetic fields from the interior and bring them to the visible surface....

The solar chromosphere is one of the most intriguing yet poorly understood regions of the solar atmosphere, and its heating remains a central problem in solar physics. Plage regions, characterized by the strong, predominantly vertical magnetic fields, show enhanced chromospheric emission, indicating localized energy deposition. The dominant
