Comparison between gravity force and vertical component of the Lorentz force. Left panel: depth variation of gravity force (solid) and vertical component of the Lorentz force (dashed) in the four one-dimensional semi-empirical models presented in this work: average quiet-Sun (black), granule (blue), intergranule (red), dark magnetic element (green). Lorentz force is given in absolute value so that it can be displayed in a vertical logarithmic scale Right panel: same as above, but considering two individual locations indicated with the + and ▫ symbols in the previous figures. The approximate (x, y) locations of these two pixels in Figs. 4 and 5 are given in parentheses.
