Fig. 2.

Details of the evolution of two PMJs labeled A and B. Left four images: selected moments of the area centered on the PMJ. The time (in seconds) is marked in the lower left corner and is relative to the time when the maximum PMJ signal is measured in the space-time diagram. The four images are all scaled to the PMJ maximum at t = 0 according to the gray-scale color bar. The start and end points of the trajectory of the space-time diagram are indicated with orange markers, the thicker marker indicates the start and is closest to the umbra. Two versions of the space-time diagram are shown with two different color tables: in gray scale and rainbow-color scale. A white line indicates the slope of a specified propagation speed. Light curves are shown in the upper right panel; the black and green lines show the intensity at fixed locations in the space-time diagram. These locations are marked in the gray-scaled space-time diagrams. The red line shows the highest PMJ signal during the brightest phase of the PMJ. The orange line shows as reference the intensity in the vicinity of the PMJ but outside the space-time diagram. Its location is marked with the orange cross in the images on the left. The units are arbitrary detector units. The right axis scaling is normalized to maximum PMJ intensity (at time t = 0 s). In the lower right corner the intensity contrast in the wideband channel is shown as an indication of the seeing quality. The right axis scaling is normalized to maximum contrast in the whole time series. Animations of this figure are available online.
