Exploring the Influence of Density Contrast on Solar Near-Surface Shear
Loren I. Matilsky, Bradley W. Hindman, Juri Toomre
The advent of helioseismology has determined in detail the average rotation rate of the Sun as a function of radius and latitude. These data immediately reveal two striking boundar…
The Role of Downflows in Establishing Solar Near-Surface Shear
Loren I. Matilsky, Bradley W. Hindman, J. Toomre
The dynamical origins of the Sun's tachocline and near-surface shear layer (NSSL) are still not well understood. We have attempted to self-consistently reproduce a NSSL in numerica…
A Novel Approach to Resonant Absorption of the Fast MHD Eigenmodes of a Coronal Arcade
Bradley W. Hindman, Rekha Jain
The arched field lines forming coronal arcades are often observed to undulate as magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) waves propagate both across and along the magnetic field. These waves are…
Prandtl-Number Effects in High-Rayleigh-Number Spherical Convection
Ryan J. Orvedahl, Michael A. Calkins, Nicholas A. Featherstone +1
Convection is the predominant mechanism by which energy and angular momentum are transported in the outer portion of the Sun. The resulting overturning motions are also the primary…
