Three dimensional numerical simulations of acoustic wave field in the upper convection zone of the Sun

K. V. Parchevsky, A. G. Kosovichev

Results of numerical 3D simulations of propagation of acoustic waves inside the Sun are presented. A linear 3D code which utilizes realistic OPAL equation of state was developed by…

Radiative transfer effects on Doppler measurements as sources of surface effects in sunspot seismology

S. P. Rajaguru, K. Sankarasubramanian, R. Wachter +1

We show that the use of Doppler shifts of Zeeman sensitive spectral lines to observe wavesn in sunspots is subject to measurement specific phase shifts arising from, (i) altered he…
