Abstract
Using different models deduced from EUV lines for the cell and for various network components, the corresponding radio brightness temperature in the millimetric and centimetric range of wavelengths are computed. The contrast C = [T b (network)]/[T b (cell)] and the difference ΔT = T b (network) - T b (cell) are compared with the few available observations of the quiet Sun inhomogeneities performed with sufficient angular resolution. The comparison shows a satisfactory agreement with most of the observations.
