Advances in Helioseismology

Science, 1991
Globally coherent oscillation modes were discovered in the sun about a decade ago, providing a unique seismological probe of the solar interior. Current observations detect modes that are phase-coherent for up to 1 year, with surface velocity amplitudes as low as 2 millimeters per second, and thousands of mode frequencies have been ...

Diffusion and Helioseismology

EAS Publications Series, 2007
Helioseismic inferences have demonstrated very clearly the importance of including element diffusion and settling in solar modelling: models incorporating these processes are in substantially better agreement with the inferred solar sound speed than are models that neglect them.

Probing sunspots with two-skip time–distance helioseismology [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy and Astrophysics, 2018
Context. Previous helioseismology of sunspots has been sensitive to both the structural and magnetic aspects of sunspot structure.Aims. We aim to develop a technique that is insensitive to the magnetic component so the two aspects can be more readily ...

An Introduction to Helioseismology

2000
In no other case has stellar variability been honed to such a sharp astrophysical tool as for the Sun. The extreme richness of oscillation data available for the Sun, as a result of its proximity and the nature of the excitation processes responsible for the oscillations, provides us with a scalpel which allows us to dissect in minute detail, layer by ...

Perspectives in Helioseismology

Science, 1996
Helioseismology is probing the interior structure and dynamics of the sun with ever-increasing precision, providing a well-calibrated laboratory in which physical processes can be studied under conditions that are unattainable on Earth. Nearly 10 million resonant modes of oscillation are observable in the solar atmosphere, and their frequencies need to

Laser heterodyne spectrometer for helioseismology

Applied Optics, 1986
The technique of laser heterodyne spectroscopy has been applied to the measurement of solar oscillations. Coherent mixing of solar radiation with the output of a frequency-stabilized CO2 laser permits the measurement of fully resolved profiles of solar absorption lines with high spectral purity and excellent frequency stability. This technique has been

Solar Models and Helioseismology

2000
Helioseismic results put very important constraints on structure of the solar models, which can not be reachable by another way. These constraints lead toward what we should do to obtain a solar model in good agreement with the Sun. In this connection, diffusion of chemical elements took its indispensable part in the standard solar models.

Helioseismology on the Moon

Advances in Space Research, 1994
Abstract The prospect of a future manned lunar base presents an interesting challenge for helioseismology-a field in which observations have been obtained from the Earth's surface, from near-earth satellites, and from interplanetary space-craft.

Helioseismology and the solar interior dynamics

Journal of Astrophysics and Astronomy, 2000
AbstractThe inversion of helioseismic modes leads to the sound velocity inside the Sun with a precision of about 0.1 per cent. Comparisons of solar models with the “seismic sun” represent powerful tools to test the physics: depth of the convection zone, equation of state, opacities, element diffusion processes and mixing inside the radiative zone.
