Effects of density stratification on Rossby waves in deep atmospheres
Catherine C. Blume, Bradley W. Hindman
Though Rossby waves have been observed on the Sun, their radial eigenfunctions remain a mystery. The prior theoretical work either considers quasi-2D systems, which do not apply to…

Inertial Waves in a Nonlinear Simulation of the Sun's Convection Zone and Radiative Interior
Catherine C. Blume, Bradley W. Hindman, Loren I. Matilsky
Recent observations of Rossby waves and other more exotic forms of inertial oscillations in the Sun's convection zone have kindled the hope that such waves might be used as a seism…

Assessing the Observability of Deep Meridional Flow Cells in the Solar Interior
J. R. Fuentes, Bradley W. Hindman, Junwei Zhao +6
Meridional circulation regulates the Sun's interior dynamics and magnetism. While it is well accepted that meridional flows are poleward at the Sun's surface, helioseismic observat…
