Context. Umbral Dots (UDs) are thought to be manifestations of magnetoconvection in sunspot umbrae. Recent advances in their theoretical description point to the need for a thorough study of their properties and evolution based on data with the highest currently achievable resolution.
1
A thorough investigation of umbral-dot brightness, spatial distribution, and temporal evolution is motivated by advances in their theoretical description.
2
The study requires observations at the highest currently achievable spatial resolution to resolve umbral-dot properties and evolution.
3
Umbral dots are considered manifestations of magnetoconvection within sunspot umbrae.
