Global seismology of the Sun

S Basu - Living Reviews in Solar Physics, 2016 - Springer
The seismic study of the Sun and other stars offers a unique window into the interior of these
stars. Thanks to helioseismology, we know the structure of the Sun to admirable precision. In …

Time–distance helioseismology

TL Duvall Jr, SM Jeffferies, JW Harvey, MA Pomerantz - Nature, 1993 - nature.com
THE application of seismology to the study of the solar interior1, 2 (helioseismology) has
advanced almost solely by the prediction and measurement of the Sun's frequencies of free …

The underlying physical meaning of the νmax− νc relation

K Belkacem, MJ Goupil, MA Dupret, R Samadi… - Astronomy & …, 2011 - aanda.org
Asteroseismology of stars that exhibit solar-like oscillations are enjoying a growing interest

Amplitudes of stochastically excited oscillations in main-sequence stars

G Houdek, NJ Balmforth… - arxiv preprint astro-ph …, 1999 - arxiv.org
We present estimates of the amplitudes of intrinsically stable stochastically excited radial
oscillations in stars near the main sequence. The amplitudes are determined by the balance …

Solar-like Oscillations in α Centauri B

H Kjeldsen, TR Bedding, RP Butler… - The Astrophysical …, 2005 - iopscience.iop.org
We have made velocity observations of the star α Centauri B from two sites, allowing us to
identify 37 oscillation modes with l= 0-3. Fitting to these modes gives the large and small …

The relation between Δv and vmax for solar-like oscillations

D Stello, WJ Chaplin, S Basu, Y Elsworth… - Monthly Notices of …, 2009 - academic.oup.com
Establishing relations between global stellar parameters and asteroseismic quantities can
help improve our understanding of stellar astrophysics and facilitate the interpretation of …

Magnetic field inclination and atmospheric oscillations above solar active regions

H Schunker, PS Cally - Monthly Notices of the Royal …, 2006 - academic.oup.com
Recent observational evidence for magnetic field direction effects on helioseismic signals in
sunspot penumbrae is suggestive of magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) mode conversion …

On the excitation mechanism in roAp stars

NJ Balmforth, MS Cunha, N Dolez… - Monthly Notices of …, 2001 - academic.oup.com
We investigate a model for the excitation of high-order oscillations in roAp stars. In this
model we assume that the strong concentration of magnetic field about the magnetic poles is …

The effect of the adiabatic assumption on asteroseismic scaling relations for luminous red giants

JC Zinn, MH Pinsonneault, L Bildsten… - Monthly Notices of the …, 2023 - academic.oup.com
Although stellar radii from asteroseismic scaling relations agree at the per cent level with
independent estimates for main sequence and most first-ascent red giant branch (RGB) …

An asteroseismic signature of helium ionization

G Houdek, DO Gough - Monthly Notices of the Royal …, 2007 - academic.oup.com
We investigate the influence of the ionization of helium on the low-degree acoustic
oscillation frequencies in model solar-type stars. The signature in the oscillation frequencies …
