Previous studies analyzing the evanescent nature of acoustic waves in the lower solar atmosphere, up to 300 km above the photosphere, have shown an unexpected phase shift of an order of 1 s between different heights.

Helioseismology: Probing the interior of a star [PDF]
Helioseismology offers, for the first time, an opportunity to probe in detail the deep interior of a star (our Sun). The results will have a profound impact on our understanding not only of the solar interior, but also neutrino physics, stellar evolution theory, and stellar population studies in astrophysics.

Reconstruction of Solar Subsurfaces by Local Helioseismology [PDF]
Local helioseismology has opened new frontiers in our quest for understanding of the internal dynamics and dynamo on the Sun. Local helioseismology reconstructs subsurface structures and flows by extracting coherent signals of acoustic waves traveling ...

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

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 ...

A Review of Space Helioseismology [PDF]
The helioseismology started in 1960 with the discovery of oscillations of the velocity field on the solar surface by Leighton, 1960. The mechanism producing these oscillations remained unexplained for the next ten years until Ulrich, 1970, and independently Leibacher and Stein, 1971, demonstrated that acoustic waves trapped beneath the solar surface ...

Helioseismology with long-range dark matter-baryon interactions [PDF]
Assuming the existence of a primordial asymmetry in the dark sector, we study how long-range dark matter (DM)-baryon interactions, induced by the kinetic mixing of a new U(1) gauge boson and a photon, affect the evolution of the Sun and, in turn, the ...

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.

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 ...
