Helioseismology and the solar age [PDF]
, 1998 The problem of measuring the solar age by means of helioseismology hasbeen recently revisited by Guenther & Demarque (1997) and by Weiss & Schlattl (1998). Different best values for $t_{\rm seis}$ and different assessment of the uncertainty resulted from
