英文摘要The statistical properties of photospheric bright points (PBPs) in active regions (ARs) and the quiet Sun (QS) are investigated using two data sets obtained with the Dutch Open Telescope. Data for AR NOAA 10642 (July 12, 2004) and the QS (October 19, 2005) near the disk center are analyzed. For extracting PBPs, an automatic algorithm, employing Laplacian and morphological dilation (LMD) technique, is developed. The statistical properties of PBPs such as size distribution, contrast between maximum of PBPs and mean photospheric intensity, area coverage, number coverage and geometric shape are quantified. We then use goodness-of-fit to evaluate the fit of the size distribution of PBPs in the two regions. Finally, the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test is used to analyze the statistical difference in the AR and the QS. The following results are obtained: (1) the size distributions (probability density function) of PBPs in the two regions follow a lognormal distribution, moreover they are from the same size distribution; (2) the number coverage and the area coverage in the AR are about twice larger than those in the QS, respectively; (3) the geometrical shape of PBPs is quantified by the ratio of the length of major axis to the length of minor axis by the center of gravity. The ratio of about 50 % PBPs is less than 1.5, and their geometrical shapes are exactly alike in the two regions; (4) the ratio of maximum intensity of PBPs to their corresponding mean photospheric intensity is larger in the AR than in the QS. The results suggest that size and shape of PBPs in the AR and the QS are just the same, but the brightness of PBPs in the AR is different from that in the QS.
