Solar p-modes excitation rate along the magnetic activity cycle

E. Panetier, S. N. Breton, R. A. García +2

Magnetic cycles of solar-like stars influence their internal physics. Thus, the frequency, amplitude, excitation rate, and damping of the acoustic oscillation modes (p-modes) vary…

Seismic differences between solar magnetic cycles 23 and 24 for low-degree modes

Rafael A. Garcia, Sylvain N. Breton, David Salabert +4

Solar magnetic activity follows regular cycles of about 11 years with an inversion of polarity in the poles every 22 years. This changing surface magnetism impacts the properties o…
