Helioseismic Evidence That the Solar Dynamo Originates near the Tachocline
Krishnendu Mandal, Alexander G. Kosovichev

John T. Stefan, Alexander G. Kosovichev, Gustavo Guerrero +1
We re-examine the deep-focus methodology of time-distance helioseismology previously used to estimate the power spectrum of the solar convection at a depth of about 30 Mm, which wa…
Improving Our Knowledge of the Solar Near-Surface Shear Layer: The Special Case of the Leptocline
Jean-Pierre Rozelot, Alexander Kosovichev, Irina Kitiashvili
The discovery of the solar activity cycle was linked from the outset to the observation of the temporal variability of sunspots, which we know to be the result of complex processes…
Properties of Turbulent Convection and Large-Scale Flows in a Rotating F-type Star Revealed by 3D Realistic Radiative Hydrodynamic Simulations
Irina N. Kitiashvili, Alexander G. Kosovichev, Alan A. Wray
The nonlinear coupling between stellar convection and rotation is of great interest because it relates to understanding both stellar evolution and activity. We investigated the inf…
