Stellar Physics and General Relativity
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 ...

Time-distance helioseismology uses cross-covariances of wave motions on the solar surface to determine the travel times of wave packets moving from one surface location to another.

Helioseismology is one of the most successful fields of astrophysics. The observation and character-ization of solar oscillation has allowed solar seismologists to study the internal structure and dynamics of the Sun with unprecedented thoroughness. Ground-based networks and dedicated space missions have delivered data of exquisite quality, enabling ...

Recent Developments in Degenerate Higher Order Scalar Tensor Theories
Degenerate Higher Order Scalar Tensor theories are reviewed, together with their applications in cosmology and astrophysics. These theories have been applied to build models of the early universe, in the description of the late‐time cosmic acceleration, as well as in astrophysics, including black hole physics. They have the potential to provide answers

Coronal and heliospheric magnetic flux circulation and its relation to open solar flux evolution
Abstract Solar cycle 24 is notable for three features that can be found in previous cycles but which have been unusually prominent: (1) sunspot activity was considerably greater in the northern/southern hemisphere during the rising/declining phase; (2) accumulation of open solar flux (OSF) during the rising phase was modest, but rapid in the early ...

Helioseismology in the Future [PDF]
AbstractWe review the observables of helioseismology that can contribute to our knowledge of the physical conditions in the solar interior. We discuss the limitations which presently prevent helioseismology from reaching its ultimate goal. We finally present a list of projects which either are already underway or that are planned for the near future ...

Helioseismology, solar models and neutrino fluxes [PDF]
We present our results concerning a systematical analysis of helioseismic implications on solar structure and neutrino production. We find Y$_{ph}=0.238-0.259$, $R_b/R_\odot=0.708-0.714$ and $\rho_b=(0.185-0.199)$ gr/cm$^3$.

Extreme Space Weather Events of the Past 30 Years: Preparation for Data From Mission Vigil
Abstract Extreme Space Weather events can negatively affect ground‐based infrastructure and satellite communications. European Space Agency plans to launch a new operational mission, Vigil, to monitor space weather activity and provide timely warnings about immediate danger.
