Figure 1: Top panel: the solid line displays the Ca II 854.2 nm atlas profile, while the dashed line shows the effects of the 0.46 nm FWHM prefilter utilized in IBIS observations. The actual maximum transmission of the prefilter is 35%. The asterisks indicate the wavelengths of the images in Figs. 2 and 3. Bottom panel: normalized prefilter profile (solid, upper curve) and periodic transmission profile of the combined Fabry Perot's (solid, multiple peaks curve). Note the logarithmic scale. The dashed line indicates the effects of the prefilter on the FPs transmission profile, i.e. the large suppression of the secondary maxima of the curve, as needed to reduce the spectral parasitic light. |

Figure 2:
Ca II 854.2 nm data acquired on 2004 May 31. Wavelength runs from left to
right, top to bottom, as indicated in the panels, with offsets in pm from the nominal line core.

Same as Fig. 2, for 2004 June 2 data.
In the speckle-reconstructed broadband image many bright points can be appreciated in the
network areas. The MDI map shows a strong, bipolar network (image scaled between

Figure 5: Contribution function for Ca II 8542 computed in plane-parallel, hydro-static, average quiet-Sun atmosphere (Fontenla et al. 1993). Height zero refers to the level at which optical depth in the continuum at 500 nm is unity. |

Figure 6: ``Slit'' spectra obtained around the middle of the sequence of 2004 June 2, from two horizontal cuts of the data displayed in Fig. 3. The x-axis is the wavelength distance from the average line core position. The left spectrum corresponds to the upper slice across network areas, while the right one corresponds to the lower slice, and represents quiet internetwork areas. |

Figure 7: Average line profiles for the data acquired on 2004 June 2. Panel a): the spectrum averaged over the whole dataset (thin solid line) is compared to the Liege atlas (thick solid). The effect of the prefilter transmission has been removed from the observations. The profiles averaged over different solar features defined by using an intensity threshold are also shown: network points (dashed), fibrils (dot-dashed), and internetwork (dotted). Panel b): as in panel a), but this time fibrils and internetwork areas were defined using dynamical properties. |
