Solar neutrinos, helioseismology and the solar internal dynamics
Neutrinos are fundamental particles ubiquitous in the Universe and whose properties remain elusive despite more than 50 years of intense research activity. This review illustrates the importance of solar neutrinos in astrophysics, nuclear physics and particle physics. After a description of the historical context, we remind the reader of the noticeable properties of these particles and of the s...
متن کاملSolar Core Homology, Solar Neutrinos and Helioseismology *
Precise numerical standard solar models (SSMs) now agree with one another and with helioseismological observations in the convective and outer radiative zones. Nevertheless these models obscure how luminosity, neutrino production and g-mode core helioseismology depend on such inputs as opacity and nuclear cross sections. Although the Sun is not homologous, its inner core by itself is chemically...
متن کاملHelioseismology and solar neutrinos: an update
Helioseismology has added important data on the solar structure which provide severe constraint and tests of SSM calculations. For instance, helioseismology accurately determines the depth of the convective zone Rb and the photospheric helium abundance Yph. With these additional constraints there are essentially no free parameters for SSM builders. In this paper we review recent advances concer...
متن کاملHelioseismology and the Solar Interior Dynamics
The inversion of helioseismic modes leads to the sound velocity inside the Sun with a precision of about 0.1 per cent. Comparisons of solar models with the "seismic sun" represent powerful tools to test the physics: depth of the convection zone, equation of state, opacities, element diffusion processes and mixing inside the radiative zone. We now have evidence that microscopic diffusion (elemen...
متن کاملHelioseismology and Solar Abundances
Helioseismology has allowed us to study the structure of the Sun in unprecedented detail. One of the triumphs of the theory of stellar evolution was that helioseismic studies had shown that the structure of solar models is very similar to that of the Sun. However, this agreement has been spoiled by recent revisions of the solar heavy-element abundances. Heavy element abundances determine the op...
