Photospheric high-frequency acoustic power excess in sunspot umbra: signature of magneto-acoustic modes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We present observational evidence for the presence of MHD (magnetohydrodynamic) waves in the solar photosphere deduced from SOHO/MDI (Solar and Heliospheric Observatory/Michelson Doppler Imager) Dopplergram velocity observations.

A Spectral Solver for Solar Inertial Waves

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2023
Inertial waves, which are predominantly driven by the Coriolis force, likely play an important role in solar dynamics, and, additionally, they provide a window into the solar subsurface.

Inversions of Stellar Structure From Asteroseismic Data

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2022
The advent of space-based photometry missions in the early 21st century enabled the application to asteroseismic data of advanced inference techniques until then restricted to the field of helioseismology.

Ryugu reference project: Recommendations from the measurement definition team

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 61, Issue 5, Page 819-848, May 2026.
Abstract Sample return missions play a significant role in planetary science by providing pristine extraterrestrial materials. JAXA's Hayabusa2 and NASA's OSIRIS‐REx missions have returned samples from the C‐type asteroids Ryugu and Bennu, respectively. The chemical and mineralogical compositions of these samples closely resemble those of CI chondrites,

Local Helioseismology Analyses with Hinode/SOT Datasets

open access: yes, 2018
The solar internal structure and dynamics have been probed by examining the oscillations of the Sun, or by “listening to the Sun”; helioseismology provides us with unique tools for these analyses.

Helioseismology and screening of nuclear reactions in the Sun

open access: yes, 2001
We show that models for screening of nuclear reactions in the Sun can be tested by means of helioseismology. As well known, solar models using the weak screening factors are in agreement with data.

Towards inertial-mode helioseismology: Direct sensing of solar rotation at 75° latitude and 0.8 R⊙

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
Context. Because solar global inertial modes are highly sensitive to differential rotation, they may provide new diagnostics of internal rotation at high latitudes, where acoustic-mode helioseismology provides only weak constraints. Aims.

Exploring the Dynamics of Near-Surface Solar Convection with Helioseismology [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
I present a new implementation of local helioseismology along with observations of near-surface solar convection made with this method. The upper 5% of the solar radius (35 Mm) is known as the Near-Surface Shear Layer (NSSL) and is characterized by ...

Inferring the Solar Meridional Circulation Flow Profile by Applying Bayesian Methods to Time–Distance Helioseismology

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Mapping the large-scale subsurface plasma flow profile within the Sun has been attempted using various methods for several decades. One such flow in particular is the meridional circulation, for which numerous studies have been published.

Stellar Physics and General Relativity

open access: yesAstronomische Nachrichten, Volume 346, Issue 3-4, March-May 2025.
ABSTRACT The general theory of relativity is currently established as the most precise theory of gravity supported by observations, and its application is diverse ranging from astronomy to cosmology, while its application to astrophysics has been restricted only to compact stars due to the assumption that the Newtonian approximation is sufficient for ...
