Priest and Parnell (1994) proposed a magnetic canceling model for explaining the overall evolution of XBPs. However, this model has not yet been confirmed with observations. SOT has not yet performed magnetic-field observations suitable for investigating mechanisms responsible for XBPs (see Kotoku et al. 2007 PASJ). The biggest problem in the observations made so far with Hinode is that continuous SOT observations are available only in a few - several hours, which is much shorter than the lifetime of XBPs (8 hrs for small typical XBPs, 48hrs for bigger XBPs) and time-scale of small-scale magnetic field evolution (Schrijver et al. 1998). We are lack of observations with continuous a-few days tracking of a quiet region with Hinode SOT coodinated with XRT and EIS.
