Title: The Privileged Life of a Theoretical Observer
Authors: Gough, Douglas
2022SoPh..297...95G    Altcode:
  This is a summary of my scientific career, biased by my
  personal view of events and unashamedly concentrating on those
  aspects of some of the scientific developments to which I have
  contributed. A selective unbiased alternative has been written by
  Christensen-Dalsgaard and Thompson (A selective overview. In: Thompson,
  M.J., Christensen-Dalsgaard, J. (Eds.) Stellar Astrophysical Fluid
  Dynamics, Cambridge University Press, pp. 1 - 19, 2003), followed by
  some further remarks by Christensen-Dalsgaard (Unsolved Problems in
  Stellar Physics: A Conference in Honour of Douglas Gough, American
  Institute of Physics Conference Series, 948, xii, 2007).

Title: What do we reliably know about how fast the Sun's core spins?
Authors: Scherrer, Philip H.; Gough, Douglas
2019AAS...23430206S    Altcode:
  Fossat et al. (2017) and Fossat & Schmider (2018) have attempted
  to use solar p-mode frequency perturbations to detect rotational
  splitting of g-modes. They claim that this approach detected the
  Sun's core to be rotating about 3.8 times faster than the surrounding
  radiative interior and the convection zone. We report an independent
  study of the technique, the inconsistencies with the well-established
  p-mode determinations of rotation, and with their assumption of which
  g-modes might be sensed. Additionally we used both the same calibrated
  80s SOHO/GOLF data used in the 2017 study and the then only publically
  available GOLF 60s cadence data and verified the findings of Schunker et
  al. (2018) that the g-mode detection was fragile: It vanished when the
  GOLF data was sampled at the 60s vs 80s cadence and when the starting
  point was shifted by 2 hours of the 15 years studied. We also applied
  the same technique to all other available long duration low-degree data
  collections including SOHO/MDI, SOHO/LOI, SDO/HMI, GONG, and BiSON and
  found no evidence of the Fossat et al. (2017) reported signals. We note
  that a second independent study by Appourchaux & Corbard (2019) came
  to the same conclusions. Thus we doubt the validity of the 2017 findings
  and conclude that there is no useful information about the rotation of
  the solar core yet determined using these techniques (Scherrer &
  Gough, 2019). References: Appourchaux, T., & Corbard, T. 2019,

Title: A Critical Evaluation of Recent Claims Concerning Solar
    Rotation
Authors: Scherrer, P. H.; Gough, D. O.
2019ApJ...877...42S    Altcode: 2019arXiv190402820S
  Fossat et al. recently reported detecting rotational splitting of
  g-modes indirectly via the interaction with p-modes observed directly
  by the Global Oscillations at Low Frequency (GOLF) instrument on
  the Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO). They concluded that
  the core of the Sun is rotating 3.8 ± 0.1 times faster than the
  surrounding radiative envelope. This is startling, partly because
  such rapid rotation almost contradicts direct inferences from the
  p-mode rotational splitting inferred from the same data. Moreover,
  the inferred amplitudes of the g-modes appear to exceed the upper
  bound reported by Appourchaux et al. It is also suspect because the
  theory of the procedure implies that the principal modes claimed to
  have been measured should be undetectable. We point out that there are
  other interpretations: one leads to a core rotation about twice as fast
  as the surrounding envelope; another, to a core rotating more slowly
  than the envelope. Here we also report on an independent assessment
  of the Fossat et al. analysis by applying their procedure to different
  representations of the GOLF data, expanding on Schunker et al. We also
  analyze seismic data obtained from LOI and MDI (both also on SOHO),
  from HMI (on SDO), and from the ground-based BiSON and GONG, and
  we find the evidence reported by Fossat et al. not to be robust. We
  also illustrate that merely fitting model spectra to observations,
  which Fossat et al. do to support their g-mode detections, and as
  Fossat & Schmider do for extracting additional g-mode splittings,
  is not necessarily reliable. We are therefore led to doubt the claim.

Title: Anticipating the Sun's heavy-element abundance
Authors: Gough, D. O.
2019MNRAS.485L.114G    Altcode: 2019MNRAS.tmpL..50G; 2019arXiv190400301G
  Much of our understanding of the internal structure of the Sun derives
  from so-called standard theoretical solar models. Unfortunately, none
  of those models agrees completely with observations. The discrepancy
  is commonly associated with chemical abundance, and has led to what
  is now called the solar abundance problem, the resolution of which has
  previously been out of sight. But now the Borexino Collaboration, which
  recently announced measurements of the pp-chain solar neutrinos, are
  optimistic that they will be able to measure the flux Φ<SUB>CNO</SUB>
  of the neutrinos emitted by the relatively weak CNO cycle. Since C, N,
  and O constitute the majority of the heavy elements, that measurement
  will permit a crucial determination of the heavy-element abundance
  Z<SUB>c</SUB> in the Sun's energy-generating core, thereby shedding
  important light on the problem. To accomplish that determination,
  a robust relation between Z<SUB>c</SUB> and Φ<SUB>CNO</SUB> will be
  required. That relation is Z_c= 0.400 Φ _CNO, where Φ<SUB>CNO</SUB>
  is in units of 10<SUP>10</SUP> cm<SUP>-2</SUP> s<SUP>-1</SUP>.

Title: On the hydrostatic stratification of the solar tachocline
Authors: Christensen-Dalsgaard, J.; Gough, D. O.; Knudstrup, E.
2018MNRAS.477.3845C    Altcode: 2018MNRAS.tmp..730C; 2018arXiv180308675C
  We present an attempt to reconcile the solar tachocline glitch, a thin
  layer immediately beneath the convection zone in which the seismically
  inferred sound speed in the Sun exceeds corresponding values in standard
  solar models, with a degree of partial material mixing which we presume
  to have resulted from a combination of convective overshoot, wave
  transport, and tachocline circulation. We first summarize the effects
  either of modifying in the models the opacity in the radiative interior
  or of incorporating either slow or fast tachocline circulation. Neither
  alone is successful. We then consider, without physical justification,
  incomplete material redistribution immediately beneath the convection
  zone which is slow enough not to disturb radiative equilibrium. It is
  modelled simply as a diffusion process. We find that, in combination
  with an appropriate opacity modification, it is possible to find a
  density-dependent diffusion coefficient that removes the glitch almost
  entirely, with a radiative envelope that is consistent with seismology.

Title: A fitting LEGACY - modelling Kepler's best stars
Authors: Aarslev, Magnus J.; Christensen-Dalsgaard, Jørgen; Lund,
   Mikkel N.; Silva Aguirre, Victor; Gough, Douglas
2017EPJWC.16003010A    Altcode:
  The LEGACY sample represents the best solar-like stars observed in
  the Kepler mission[5, 8]. The 66 stars in the sample are all on
  the main sequence or only slightly more evolved. They each have
  more than one year's observation data in short cadence, allowing
  for precise extraction of individual frequencies. Here we present
  model fits using a modified ASTFIT procedure employing two different
  near-surface-effect corrections, one by Christensen-Dalsgaard[4] and
  a newer correction proposed by Ball &amp; Gizon[1]. We then compare
  the results obtained using the different corrections. We find that
  using the latter correction yields lower masses and significantly
  lower χ<SUP>2</SUP> values for a large part of the sample.

Title: Is the Sun a Magnet?
Authors: Gough, D. O.
2017SoPh..292...70G    Altcode:
  It has been argued (Gough and McIntyre in Nature394, 755, 1998) that
  the only way for the radiative interior of the Sun to be rotating
  uniformly in the face of the differentially rotating convection zone is
  for it to be pervaded by a large-scale magnetic field, a field which is
  responsible also for the thinness of the tachocline. It is most likely
  that this field is the predominantly dipolar residual component of a
  tangled primordial field that was present in the interstellar medium
  from which the Sun condensed (Braithwaite and Spruit in Nature431, 819,
  2004), and that advection by the meridional flow in the tachocline
  has caused the dipole axis to be inclined from the axis of rotation
  by about 60<SUP>∘</SUP> (Gough in Geophys. Astrophys. Fluid Dyn.,
  106, 429, 2012). It is suggested here that, notwithstanding its
  turbulent passage through the convection zone, a vestige of that
  field is transmitted by the solar wind to Earth, where it modulates
  the geomagnetic field in a periodic way. The field variation reflects
  the inner rotation of the Sun, and, unlike turbulent-dynamo-generated
  fields, must maintain phase. I report here a new look at an earlier
  analysis of the geomagnetic field by Svalgaard and Wilcox (Solar
  Phys.41, 461, 1975), which reveals evidence for appropriate phase
  coherence, thereby adding support to the tachocline theory.

Title: The Olsen Rotating Dipole, Revisited
Authors: Svalgaard, L.; Gough, D. O.; Scherrer, P. H.
2016AGUFMSH31B2548S    Altcode:
  Olsen (1948) and Wilcox &amp; Gonzales (1971) reported evidence
  of a solar equatorial magnetic dipole with a stable (synodic)
  rotation period of 26 7/8 days maintaining its phase over 15 years
  (1926-1941, Olsen) and possibly to 1968 as well (1963-1968, Wilcox &amp;
  Gonzales). Using a composite series of Interplanetary Magnetic Sector
  Polarities covering the interval 1844-2016 (derived from geomagnetic
  data before the space age and direct measurements during 1963-2016)
  we find that 1) the response of geomagnetic activity to passage (at
  Earth) of a sector boundary has been consistently the same in every
  solar cycle from 9 through 24, thus validating the inferred times of
  sector boudary passages over the past 173 years, and 2) the 'Olsen'
  dipole can be traced back the 16 cycles to the year 1844, albeit
  with a slightly different synodic rotation period of 26.86 days (431
  nHz). Olsen ended his paper with "The persistence of a fixed period
  during 15 years points to the possibility that the origin of the effect
  is to be found in a layer on the Sun with a fixed rotation-period during
  a long time" and Wilcox &amp; Gonzales noted that "A rotating magnetic
  dipole may be lurking within the sun". We compare the Olsen-period
  with other evidence for rotation periods in the deep interior and for
  the existence of a relic magnetic field.

Title: Some Glimpses from Helioseismology at the Dynamics of the
    Deep Solar Interior
Authors: Gough, D. O.
2015SSRv..196...15G    Altcode: 2015arXiv150504881G; 2015SSRv..tmp...32G
  Helioseismology has taught us a great deal about the stratification
  and kinematics of the solar interior, sufficient for us to embark upon
  dynamical studies more detailed than have been possible before. The
  most sophisticated studies to date have been the very impressive
  numerical simulations of the convection zone, from which, especially
  in recent years, a great deal has been learnt. Those simulations,
  and the seismological evidence with which they are being confronted,
  are reviewed elsewhere in this volume. Our understanding of the
  global dynamics of the radiative interior of the Sun is in a much
  more primitive state. Nevertheless, some progress has been made,
  and seismological inference has provided us with evidence of more to
  come. Some of that I summarize here, mentioning in passing hints that
  are pointing the way to the future.

Title: Indications of R-mode Oscillations in SOHO/MDI Solar Radius
    Measurements
Authors: Sturrock, P. A.; Bush, R.; Gough, D. O.; Scargle, J. D.
2015ApJ...804...47S    Altcode: 2015arXiv150301039S
  Analysis of solar radius measurements acquired by the Michelson Doppler
  Imager on the Solar and Heliospheric Observatory spacecraft supports
  previously reported evidence of solar internal r-mode oscillations
  in Mt Wilson radius data and in <SUP>90</SUP>Sr beta-decay data. The
  frequencies of these oscillations are compatible with oscillations in
  a putative inner tachocline that separates a slowly rotating core from
  the radiative envelope.

Title: Shocking Remarks on Stellar Pulsation
Authors: Gough, D. O.
2013ASPC..479..355G    Altcode:
  Smoothly varying sound waves steepen as they propagate, at a rate that
  is an increasing function of the amplitude of the wave. If they are
  not first absorbed or otherwise dissipated by diffusion, the waves
  eventually shock. One might expect, therefore, that the steepening
  process in the outwardly propagating component of a normal acoustic
  pulsation mode in a star might permit the wave to escape more easily
  into the atmosphere, thereby leaking energy in an amplitude-dependent
  manner. Is this the process that limits low-amplitude intrinsically
  overstable pulsations such as occur in roAp stars? Even if the waves
  do not shock below the location of the acoustic cutoff associated
  with the basic frequency of the wave, which is likely in low-amplitude
  pulsators, the transmitted component might shock subsequently, heating
  the atmosphere and perhaps even producing a chromosphere.

Title: A remark on the vertical transport of large-scale temperature
    fluctuations by smaller-scale convection
Authors: Gough, D. O.
2013EAS....63..255G    Altcode:
  A simple mixing-length discussion of vertical diffusive transport of
  a scalar by small-scale turbulent convection is presented, likening
  it to the microscopic transport in a classical gas. If the scalar
  is passive, the transport is governed by the well known telegraph
  equation. Temperature, on the other hand, influences the dynamics of the
  small-scale motion by modifying the buoyancy that drives the turbulent
  eddies; it leads to a rather more complicated equation, which, for
  relatively rapid variation reduces to the same wave equation as for
  a passive scalar, with maximal propagation speed comparable with the
  rms vertical eddy velocity; but in the slow diffusive limit it reduces,
  for good reason, to the classical diffusion equation with a diffusivity
  enhanced by a factor 3/2 over that pertaining to a passive scalar.

Title: Commentary on a putative magnetic field variation in the
    solar convection zone
Authors: Gough, D. O.
2013MNRAS.435.3148G    Altcode: 2013MNRAS.tmp.2186G
  The implications of a component δ<SUB>osc</SUB>ν, oscillatory with
  respect to frequency ν, of seismic frequency changes observed by
  Libbrecht and Woodard during the rising phase of solar cycle 22, first
  mooted by Goldreich, Murray, Willette and Kumar, and its relation to
  a putative magnetic field, is discussed in relation to more detailed
  analysis of data in a more limited frequency range obtained over the
  subsequent cycle. The oscillatory component is associated with helium
  ionization, and its temporal variation might be explained by a dilution
  of the effect of the ionization-induced influence on an effective
  adiabatic exponent of the stellar material by a relatively smooth
  magnetic field whose intensity increases with surface activity. To
  account for the magnitude of the variation in cycle 23 would require
  the field strength to change by some 30 T. Moreover, the change in
  δ<SUB>osc</SUB>ν in the high-frequency range that was analysed in
  cycle 23 implies changes at lower frequency that are significantly
  much greater than those observed by Libbrecht and Woodard in the
  previous cycle.

Title: What Have We Learned from Helioseismology, What Have We Really
    Learned, and What Do We Aspire to Learn?
Authors: Gough, Douglas
2013SoPh..287....9G    Altcode: 2012arXiv1210.0820G; 2012SoPh..tmp..231G
  Helioseismology has been widely acclaimed as having been a great
  success: it appears to have answered nearly all the questions that
  we originally asked, some with unexpectedly high precision. We
  have learned how the sound speed and matter density vary throughout
  almost all of the solar interior - something which not so very long
  ago was generally considered to be impossible - we have learned how
  the Sun rotates, and we have a beautiful picture, on a coffee cup,
  of the thermal stratification of a sunspot, and also an indication
  of the material flow around it. We have tried, with some success at
  times, to apply our findings to issues of broader relevance: the test
  of the General Theory of Relativity via planetary orbit precession
  (now almost forgotten because the issue has convincingly been closed,
  albeit no doubt temporarily) the solar neutrino problem, the manner
  of the transport of energy from the centre to the surface of the Sun,
  the mechanisms of angular-momentum redistribution, and the workings
  of the solar dynamo. The first two were of general interest to the
  broad scientific community beyond astronomy, and were, quite rightly,
  principally responsible for our acclaimed success; the others are
  still in a state of flux.

Title: On the magnetic field required for driving the observed
    angular-velocity variations in the solar convection zone
Authors: Antia, H. M.; Chitre, S. M.; Gough, D. O.
2013MNRAS.428..470A    Altcode: 2012MNRAS.tmp...41A; 2012arXiv1210.6606A
  A putative temporally varying circulation-free magnetic-field
  configuration is inferred in an equatorial segment of the solar
  convection zone from the helioseismologically inferred angular-velocity
  variation, assuming that the predominant dynamics is an angular
  acceleration produced by the azimuthal Maxwell stress exerted by a field
  whose surface values are consistent with photospheric line-of-sight
  measurements.

Title: Heliophysics Gleaned from Seismology
Authors: Gough, D. O.
2012ASPC..462..429G    Altcode: 2012arXiv1210.1114G
  Some of the principal heliophysical inferences that have been drawn
  from, or refined by, seismology, and the manner in which those
  inferences have been made, are very briefly described. Prominence is
  given to the use of simple formulae, derived either from simple toy
  models or from asymptotic approximations to more realistic situations,
  for tailoring procedures to be used for analysing observations in such
  a way as to answer specific questions about physics. It is emphasized
  that precision is not accuracy, and that confusing the two can be
  quite misleading.

Title: Pattern formation in rapidly oscillating peculiar A stars
Authors: Gough, Douglas
2012GApFD.106..429G    Altcode:
  Peculiar A stars harbour pairs of antipodal spots, detectable
  in magnetic-field variation and chemical-abundance anomalies, and
  which are inclined from the axis of rotation. Many of the stars are
  observed to oscillate nonradially with frequencies of high-order
  acoustic modes. The oscillations appear to be dipolar, with axes that
  are almost always more-or-less aligned with the spots. It is known
  theoretically that when the spots produce the dominating aspherical
  influence on the dynamics of the oscillations, there is always an
  oscillation eigenmode that is constrained to be aligned with the
  spots, in accord with the observations. But under some circumstances
  the spots may not have complete dynamical dominance, and Coriolis
  precession can prevent a pure mode from remaining aligned. Yet, the
  oscillations appear to be aligned. Here I investigate the proposal
  that in such circumstances what is being observed is not a single
  oscillation eigenmode, stationary with respect to the rotating star,
  but an ensemble of precessing modes whose envelope is almost stationary,
  and almost aligned with the spots. I present a one-dimensional toy
  model of a slowly drifting (standing) acoustic mode in a medium with
  thermal "spots", and show that under appropriate conditions stationary,
  non-precessing, mode envelopes are possible.

Title: Towards a theory of rapidly oscillating Ap stars
Authors: Gough, Douglas
2011arXiv1112.0863G    Altcode:
  Peculiar A stars are so named because they exhibit abundance
  peculiarities in their atmospheres. It is believed that these arise
  as a result of differentiation of chemical species in large magnetic
  spots in which convective mixing is inhibited: there might be just two
  antipodal spots, whose axis is inclined to the axis of rotation. Many
  of the Ap stars that are rotating slowly also pulsate, with periods
  substantially shorter than the period of the fundamental radial
  mode. The pulsations appear to be nonradial, but axisymmetric, with
  their common axis usually aligned with the axis of the spots. In this
  lecture I shall first discuss the magnetic suppression of convection in
  the spots, and then I shall try to explain the pulsation phenomenon,
  reviewing some of the suggestions that have been made to explain the
  alignment and the excitation mechanism, and finally raising some issues
  that need to be addressed.

Title: On the seismic age and heavy-element abundance of the Sun
Authors: Houdek, G.; Gough, D. O.
2011MNRAS.418.1217H    Altcode: 2011MNRAS.tmp.1623H; 2011arXiv1108.0802H
  We estimate the main-sequence age and heavy-element abundance of the Sun
  by means of an asteroseismic calibration of theoretical solar models
  using only low-degree acoustic modes from the BiSON. The method can
  therefore be applied also to other solar-type stars, such as those
  observed by the NASA satellite Kepler and the planned ground-based
  Danish-led Stellar Observations Network Group (SONG). The age, 4.60
  ± 0.04 Gyr, obtained with this new seismic method, is similar to,
  although somewhat greater than, today's commonly adopted values, and
  the surface heavy-element abundance by mass, Z<SUB>s</SUB>= 0.0142 ±
  0.0005, lies between the values quoted recently by Asplund et al. and
  by Caffau et al. We stress that our best-fitting model is not a seismic
  model, but a theoretically evolved model of the Sun constructed with
  'standard' physics and calibrated against helioseismic data.

Title: Nonlocal model for the turbulent fluxes due to thermal

Authors: Smolec, R.; Houdek, G.; Gough, D. O.
2011arXiv1112.0014S    Altcode:
  We revisit a phenomenological description of turbulent thermal
  convection along the lines proposed by Gough (1977) in which eddies grow
  solely by extracting energy from the unstably stratified mean state
  and are subsequently destroyed by internal shear instability. This
  work is part of an ongoing investigation for finding a procedure to
  calculate the turbulent fluxes of heat and momentum in the presence
  of a shearing background flow in stars.

Title: Stoked Dynamos: Magnetic Feeding of Dynamos and Nondynamos
Authors: Byington, Ben; Stone, Jen; Brummel, Nic; Gough, Douglas
2011sdmi.confE..18B    Altcode:
  Magnetic diffusion timescales in the sun are long enough that
  dynamo mechanisms are not required to explain the mere presence of
  a solar magnetic field. Rather, it is the large scale organization
  and chaotically modulated oscillations that suggest dynamo
  activity. However, one could ask what the effects of a fossil field
  deep in the interior might have on the visible characteristics of
  the system. In particular, could it be possible to save a failing
  dynamo in the convective region, by leaking in small amounts of
  fossil field from deep in the interior? If it were possible, could
  one tell the difference between this system and a true dynamo? In
  the present work, we examine the behavior of a number of non-dynamo
  systems when they are “stoked" through the addition of small amounts
  of external field. Without stoking, these non-dynamo systems can share
  many characteristics with dynamos, such as exponential growth in the
  kinematic regime, yet ultimately fail to sustain magnetic field over
  many diffusive timescales. For the first system examined (a kinematic
  dynamo, but nonlinear non-dynamo), the stoking does not affect
  the non-dynamo properties of the system, yet still sets up a basic
  sustained equilibrium that may be hard to distinguish from a dynamo
  for a distant observer, depending on the level of the stoking. Early
  analysis has also been done on a second different type of system (an
  essentially nonlinear failing dynamo) where stoking is more likely to
  result in a system indistinguishable from a true dynamo.

Title: What have we learned, what have we really learned, and what
    do we wish to learn?
Authors: Gough, Douglas
2011sdmi.confE..40G    Altcode:
  Helioseismology has been widely acclaimed to have been a great success:
  it seems to have answered nearly all the questions that we originally
  asked, some with unexpectedly high precision. So where are we going
  now? It takes only a brief scrutiny of the equations describing
  the structure and dynamical evolution of the Sun, together with
  those governing the low-amplitude seismic modes of oscillation to
  appreciate what can, at least in principle, be reliably inferred from
  seismology. Anything further must depend on other criteria, such as
  general physical argument, traditional astronomical observation, or even
  prejudice. It is obligatory to be explicit about how such information
  is used. Our subject has advanced to a new level of sophistication;
  we are now trying to probe almost inaccessible aspects of the physics,
  and the techniques for unravelling them are becoming more and more
  intricate, beyond the point where most scientists wish to tread. There
  must necessarily be increased trust, and it is our responsibility not
  to betray it. The broader scientific community want simply to use our
  results in their research; for that they must know their, and which
  aspects of them can really be trusted. Much of the emphasis of SDO
  seismology concerns the workings of the convection zone. We want to
  know what controls the solar cycle, how magnetic field is amplified,
  modulated and then suppressed, how sunspots are formed and destroyed -
  and what determines their lifespan. We want to know the geometry of
  at least the larger scales of convective motion, and how, beneath the
  seen superficial layers of the Sun, the processes that control the total
  radiative output are modulated. At least some of us want to understand
  how all these matters influence our procedures for inferring the gross
  properties of the Sun, and how they impinge on our broader ideas of the
  evolution of the Sun in particular, and of stars in general. Addressing
  such delicate issues with confidence may now seem an almost impossible
  task for we who have lived through years of stumbling in the darkness,
  finally emerging to bathe in the secure light illuminating the minute
  arena of knowledge that we have been instrumental in uncovering. Now
  it is incumbent on the young to proceed likewise: to grasp at the edge
  perception with initially insecure data and ideas, fully appreciating
  the uncertainty, of course; then moulding and strengthening them into
  a new body of secure scientific knowledge.

Title: Modelling turbulent fluxes due to thermal convection in
    rectilinear shearing flow
Authors: Smolec, Radoslaw; Houdek, Günter; Gough, Douglas
2011IAUS..271..397S    Altcode: 2010arXiv1011.3813S
  We revisit a phenomenological description of turbulent thermal
  convection along the lines proposed originally by Gough (1965)
  in which eddies grow solely by extracting energy from the unstably
  stratified mean state and are subsequently destroyed by internal shear
  instability. This work is part of an ongoing investigation for finding
  a procedure to calculate the turbulent fluxes of heat and momentum in
  the presence of a shearing background flow in stars.

  HR 1217 is one of the best studied rapidly oscillating Ap stars
  with eight known oscillation modes that are distorted by a strong,
  global magnetic field. We have reanalysed the multisite observations
  of HR 1217 taken in 1986 and 2000. We determined a weighting scheme
  for the 1986 and 2000 data to minimize the noise level. A wavelet
  analysis of the data has found that the modulation of the amplitude
  due to rotation for all frequencies is, in general, consistent with
  the expected modulation for modified ℓ= 1, 2 or 3 modes. Unexpected
  variations in the rotational modulation are also seen, with variations
  in the modulation profile, time of maximal pulsation and pulsational
  energy in each mode. Interestingly, these changes take place on a short
  time-scale, of the order of days. We consider potential explanations
  for these behaviours.

  Exactly eighty years ago, a very young Yehudi Menuhin was invited by
  Bruno Walter to perform Beethoven's violin concerto with the Berlin

  was unsure of his way, and asked a passer-by how he could get to the
  Konzerthaus. The man looked at him, looked down at the violin case that
  Yehudi was carrying, and said: `Practise, young man, practise'. It
  was with such advice in their minds, I am sure, that Margarida and
  Michael have asked me to try to build bridges between helioseismology
  and asteroseismology. Asteroseismology is new and fresh, and the
  young scientists who are entering the subject should be full of the
  expectation of the delights of discovery of untrodden ground. Where
  should they tread? They should be guided, perhaps, by our mature,
  well practised, experiences with the Sun.

Title: Helioseismic Detection of Deep Meridional Flow
Authors: Gough, Douglas; Hindman, Bradley W.
2010ApJ...714..960G    Altcode: 2009arXiv0911.2013G
  Steady meridional flow does not make any first-order perturbations to
  the frequencies of helioseismic normal modes. It does, however, Doppler
  shift the local wavenumber, thereby distorting the eigenfunctions. For
  high-degree modes, whose peaks in a power spectrum are blended into
  continuous ridges, the effect of the distortion is to shift the
  locations of those ridges. From this blended superposition of modes,
  one can isolate oppositely directed wave components with the same
  local horizontal wavenumber and measure a frequency difference which
  can be safely used to infer the subsurface background flow. But such
  a procedure fails for the components of the more deeply penetrating
  low-degree modes that are not blended into ridges. Instead, one must
  analyze the spatial distortions explicitly. With a simple toy model,
  we illustrate a method by which that might be accomplished by measuring
  the spatial variation of the oscillation phase. We estimate that by
  using this procedure, it might be possible to infer meridional flow
  deep in the solar convection zone.

  Solar gravity modes (or g modes)—oscillations of the solar interior
  on which buoyancy acts as the restoring force—have the potential
  to provide unprecedented inference on the structure and dynamics of
  the solar core, inference that is not possible with the well-observed
  acoustic modes (or p modes). The relative high amplitude of the g-mode
  eigenfunctions in the core and the evanesence of the modes in the
  convection zone make the modes particularly sensitive to the physical
  and dynamical conditions in the core. Owing to the existence of the
  convection zone, the g modes have very low amplitudes at photospheric
  levels, which makes the modes extremely hard to detect. In this article,
  we review the current state of play regarding attempts to detect g
  modes. We review the theory of g modes, including theoretical estimation
  of the g-mode frequencies, amplitudes and damping rates. Then we go
  on to discuss the techniques that have been used to try to detect g
  modes. We review results in the literature, and finish by looking to
  the future, and the potential advances that can be made—from both
  data and data-analysis perspectives—to give unambiguous detections
  of individual g modes. The review ends by concluding that, at the time
  of writing, there is indeed a consensus amongst the authors that there
  is currently no undisputed detection of solar g modes.

Title: Angular-Momentum Coupling Through the Tachocline
Authors: Gough, D. O.
2010ASSP...19...68G    Altcode: 2009arXiv0905.4924G; 2010mcia.conf...68G
  Astronomical observation of stellar rotation suggests that at least
  the surface layers of the Sun have lost a substantial amount of
  the angular momentum that they possessed at the beginning of the
  main-sequence phase of evolution, and solar-wind observations indicate
  that magnetic coupling is still draining angular momentum from the
  Sun today. In addition, helioseismological analysis has shown that the
  specific angular momentum at the top of the almost uniformly rotating
  radiative interior is approximately (although not exactly) the same
  as the spherically averaged value at the base of the (differentially
  rotating) convection zone, suggesting that angular momentum is being
  transported through the tachocline. The mechanism by which that
  transport is taking place is not understood. Nor is there a consensus
  of opinion. I review some of the suggestions that have been put forward,
  biassing my discussion, no doubt, according to my own opinions.

  Sunspots have been known in theWest since Galileo Galilei and Thomas
  Harriot first used telescopes to observe the Sun nearly four centuries
  ago; they have been known to the Chinese for more than 2,000 years. They
  appear as relatively dark patches on the surface of the Sun, and are
  caused by concentrations of magnetism, which impede the flow of heat
  from deep inside the Sun up to its otherwise brilliant surface. The
  spots are not permanent: the total number of spots on the Sun varies
  cyclically in time, with a period of about 11 years, associated with
  which there appear to be variations in our climate. When there are
  many spots, it is more dangerous for spacecraft to operate. The cause
  of the spots is not well understood; nor is it known for sure how
  they die. Their structure beneath the surface of the Sun is in some
  dispute, although much is known about their properties at the surface,
  including an outward material flow, which was discovered by John
  Evershed observing the Sun from Kodaikanal a 100 years ago. I shall
  give you a glimpse of how we are striving to deepen our understanding
  of these fascinating features, and some of the phenomena that appear
  to be associated with them.

Title: Measuring Solar Abundances with Seismology

  The revision of the photospheric abundances proferred by Asplund
  et al. (2005) has rendered opacity theory inconsistent with the
  seismologically determined opacity through the Sun. This highlights the
  need for a direct seismological measurement of solar abundances. Here
  we describe the technique used to measure abundances with seismology,
  examine our ability to detect differences between solar models using
  this technique, and discuss its application in the Sun.

  We recalibrate a standard solar model seismologically to estimate
  the main-sequence age of the Sun. Our procedure differs from what
  we have done in the past by removing from the observed frequencies

Title: Progress report on solar age calibration
Authors: Houdek, G.; Gough, D. O.
2008IAUS..252..149H    Altcode:
  We report on an ongoing investigation into a seismic calibration
  of solar models designed for estimating the main-sequence age
  and a measure of the chemical abundances of the Sun. Only modes
  of low degree are employed, so that with appropriate modification
  the procedure could be applied to other stars. We have found that,
  as has been anticipated, a separation of the contributions to the
  seismic frequencies arising from the relatively smooth, glitch-free,
  background structure of the star and from glitches produced by helium
  ionization and the abrupt gradient change at the base of the convection
  zone renders the procedure more robust than earlier calibrations that
  fitted only raw frequencies to glitch-free asymptotics. As in the past,
  we use asymptotic analysis to design seismic signatures that are, to
  the best of our ability, contaminated as little as possible by those
  uncertain properties of the star that are not directly associated
  with age and chemical composition. The calibration itself, however,
  employs only numerically computed eigenfrequencies. It is based on
  a linear perturbation from a reference model. Two reference models
  have been used, one somewhat younger, the other somewhat older than
  the Sun. The two calibrations, which use BiSON data, are more-or-less
  consistent, and yield a main-sequence age t<SUB>⊙</SUB> = 4.68 ±
  0.02 Gy, coupled with a formal initial heavy-element abundance Z =
  0.0169 ± 0.0005. The error analysis has not yet been completed,
  so the estimated precision must be taken with a pinch of salt.

Title: Shock Waves and Line-Profile Variation in roAp Stars
Authors: Shibahashi, Hiromoto; Gough, Douglas; Kurtz, Donald W.;

2008PASJ...60...63S    Altcode:
  Line-profile variation of NdIII and PrIII spectrum lines of roAp stars
  obtained with high spectral resolution and high time resolution seem
  to be similar to those seen in rapidly rotating B-type line-profile
  variables: features in the lines appear to move smoothly from blue to
  red, but return to the blue discontinuously. It has been argued in the
  past that such behaviour is in disagreement with the oblique-pulsator
  interpretion of the photometric observations. We point out why
  that argument is invalid. We propose that the properties of the
  observed line-profile variation can in principle be explained as a
  manifestation of a shocked wave train propagating upwards through an
  acoustically thick layer high in the atmosphere, and demonstrate that
  it is consistent with the underlying pulsation being an axisymmetric
  low-degree, probably dipole oscillation more-or-less aligned with the
  magnetic axis, in accord with the oblique-pulsator model.

  Aims: We study the variation of the angular momentum and the
  rotational kinetic energy of the Sun, and associated variations in the
  gravitational multipole moments, on a timescale of the solar cycle. <BR
  />Methods: These quantities are determined by inverting helioseismic
  rotational splitting data obtained by the Global Oscillation Network
  Group and by the Michelson Doppler Imager on the Solar and Heliospheric
  Observatory. <BR />Results: The temporal variation in angular momentum
  and kinetic energy at high latitudes (&gt;π/4) through the convection
  zone is positively correlated with the level of solar activity,
  whereas at low latitudes it is anticorrelated, except in the top 10%
  by radius where both are correlated positively. <BR />Conclusions: The
  helioseismic data imply significant temporal variation in the angular
  momentum and the rotational kinetic energy, and in the gravitational
  multipole moments. The properties of that variation will help constrain
  dynamical theories of the solar cycle.

  Sun. Formally, we obtain the preliminary value t<SUB>solar</SUB> =
  4.68+/-0.02 Gy, coupled with an initial heavy-element abundance Z =

  Asymptotic expansion of the second-order linear ordinary differential
  equation Ψ<SUP>”</SUP>+k<SUP>2</SUP>f(z)Ψ=0, in which the real
  constant k is large and f=O(1), can be carried out in the manner
  of Liouville and Green provided f does not vanish. If f does vanish,
  however, at x_0 say, then Liouville-Green expansions can be carried out
  either side of the turning point z = z_0, but it is then necessary to
  ascertain how to connect them. This was first accomplished by Jeffreys,
  by a comparison of the differential equation with Airy's equation. Soon
  afterwards, the situation was found to arise in quantum mechanics,
  and was discussed by Brillouin, Wentzel and Kramers, after whom the
  method was initially named. It arises throughout classical physics
  too, and is encountered frequently when studying waves propagating in
  stars. This brief introduction is aimed at clarifying the principles
  behind the method, and is illustrated by considering the resonant
  acoustic-gravity oscillations (normal modes) of a spherical star.

2007MNRAS.375..861H    Altcode: 2006astro.ph.12030H; 2007MNRAS.tmp...10H
  We investigate the influence of the ionization of helium on the
  low-degree acoustic oscillation frequencies in model solar-type
  stars. The signature in the oscillation frequencies characterizing
  the ionization-induced depression of the first adiabatic exponent γ
  is a superposition of two decaying periodic functions of frequency
  ν, with `frequencies' that are approximately twice the acoustic
  depths of the centres of the HeI and HeII ionization regions. That
  variation is probably best exhibited in the second frequency
  difference Δ<SUB>2</SUB>ν<SUB>n,l</SUB> ≡ ν<SUB>n-1,l</SUB>
  - 2ν<SUB>n,l</SUB> + ν<SUB>n+1,l</SUB>. We show how an analytic
  approximation to the variation of γ leads to a simple representation
  of this oscillatory contribution to Δ<SUB>2</SUB>ν which can be used
  to characterize the γ variation, our intention being to use it as a
  seismic diagnostic of the helium abundance of the star. We emphasize
  that the objective is to characterize γ, not merely to find a formula
  for Δ<SUB>2</SUB>ν that reproduces the data.

  We present an improved model for an asteroseismic diagnostic contained
  in the frequency spacing of low-degree acoustic modes. By modelling in
  a realistic manner regions of rapid variation of dynamically relevant
  quantities, which we call acoustic glitches, we can derive signatures of
  the gross properties of those glitches. In particular, we are interested
  in measuring properties that are related to the helium ionization zones
  and to the rapid variation in the background state associated with the
  lower boundary of the convective envelope. The formula for the seismic
  diagnostic is tested against a sequence of theoretical models of the
  Sun, and is compared with seismic diagnostics published previously by
  Monteiro &amp; Thompson (1998, 2005) and by Basu et al. (2004).

Title: On model predictions of the power spectral density of radial
    solar p modes

   Isaak, G. R.; New, R.
2005MNRAS.360..859C    Altcode: 2005MNRAS.tmp..510C
  We investigate the frequency dependence of the power spectral density
  of low-degree solar p modes by comparing measurements with the results
  of a stochastic-excitation model. In the past it was common practice
  to use the total power in such investigations. Using the maximum of
  the power spectral density instead provides a direct comparison with
  the measured mode heights in the observed power spectrum. This method
  permits a more careful calibration of the adjustable parameters in the
  excitation model, a model which we present here, for the first time,
  in a format that precisely and unambiguously relates the amplitudes
  of the modes of oscillation to the Reynolds stress in the equilibrium
  model. We find that errors in the theory of the linear mode damping
  rates, particularly at low frequency, have a dramatic impact on
  the predictions of the mode heights in the spectral density, whereas
  parameter changes in the stochastic excitation model, within a plausible
  domain of parameter space, have a comparatively small effect.

Title: Helioseismic Ring Analyses of Artificial Data Computed for
    Two-dimensional Shearing Flows
Authors: Hindman, Bradley W.; Gough, Douglas; Thompson, Michael J.;
   Toomre, Juri
2005ApJ...621..512H    Altcode:
  The local helioseismological technique of ring analysis has been
  crucial in the discovery of complex large-scale flows in the Sun's
  near-surface shear layer. However, current implementations of
  ring-analysis procedures assume that the flow field is horizontally
  homogeneous over the analysis region. This assumption is certainly
  incorrect, and in the present paper we assess the significance of this
  approximation by analyzing artificial data sets computed from models of
  horizontal shear flows. We consider the simple case of purely horizontal
  and unidirectional flow that varies solely in the horizontal direction
  orthogonal to the flow in a piecewise-constant manner. An ensemble
  of plane waves is incident on the flow, and the scattered wave field
  produced by the prescribed two-dimensional flow is computed to generate
  an artificial helioseismic power spectrum. The artificial spectrum
  is processed in a manner similar to standard ring analysis, and the
  flow field that is thereby inferred is compared with the known imposed
  flow. We find that the inferred flow velocity is essentially an average
  of the true flow velocity over the region of the analysis, weighted by
  the square of the spatial apodization function used in processing the
  oscillation signal. Furthermore, the shape of a p-mode line profile
  is determined by the distribution of speeds across the analysis region.

Title: On the detectability of a rotation-rate gradient in the

Authors: Chaplin, W. J.; Sekii, T.; Elsworth, Y.; Gough, D. O.
2004MNRAS.355..535C    Altcode: 2004MNRAS.tmp..451C
  We consider the problem of uncovering a possible gradient of rotation
  in the solar core using seismic frequency splittings of low-degree
  p-modes. The data are presumed to come from full-disc observations of
  the Sun. In particular, we formulate an approach for determining the
  diagnostic potential of a low-l splitting set to uncover, by inversion,
  a difference in rotation between two target radii: one deep in the core,
  the other in the mid-regions of the radiative zone. Our formulation
  assumes the underlying rotation rate to be flat in the outer part
  of the zone, but to vary linearly in the core (with the breakpoint
  in behaviour located between the two target radii). Artificial data
  are used to test the formulation, and to investigate the relative
  importance at low l of deeply penetrating, high-order modes and
  relatively shallow, low-order modes. Our results suggest that in
  order to detect a significant difference between the rotation at r=
  0.1R and 0.35R- with the input splitting data coming from a 10-yr
  set of high-quality observations - that difference would need to be
  a significant fraction of the rotation rate itself.

Title: How to interpret LPV in roAp stars
Authors: Shibahashi, H.; Kurtz, D. W.; Kambe, E.; Gough, D. O.
2004IAUS..224..829S    Altcode:
  Recent spectroscopic observations of roAp stars with high spectral
  resolution and high time resolution show line profile variations (LPV)
  which seem to be similar to those seen in rapidly rotating B-type
  line-profile variables. At first glance these line profile variations
  seem to be in disagreement with the mode identification based on the
  photometric observations. We propose an interpretation according to
  which the observed line profile variations are a manifestation of a
  shock wave in the high atmosphere near the magnetic polar regions,
  and show that the line profile variations can be still understood
  in the framework of the oscillation mode being consistent with the
  photometric observations.

Title: The power of helioseismology to address issues of fundamental

Authors: Gough, Douglas
2004AIPC..731..119G    Altcode:
  I first argue that, so far as macroscopic dynamical processes
  are concerned, to a high degree of accuracy the solar plasma, at
  least beneath the photosphere, may be regarded as being electrically
  neutral. I then turn to discuss, elaborating on Christensen-Dalsgaard's
  excellent but brief introduction in these proceedings, some of those
  aspects of helioseismology that are pertinent to determining those
  properties of the Sun that are pertinent to studies of the equation
  of state. I discuss one of the ways in which one can establish
  a representation of the structure of the Sun that is consistent
  with the helioseismic constraints, and I present some properties of
  the outcome. Finally, I describe some minor conclusions concerning
  opacity and the equation of state that can be drawn, mindful that in
  the not-too-distant future more penetrating insight will be gained.

Title: The Effect of Helium Ionization on Stellar Eigenfrequencies
Authors: Houdek, G.; Gough, D. O.
2004ESASP.559..464H    Altcode: 2004soho...14..464H
  We investigate the influence of the ionization of helium on the
  low-degree acoustic oscillation frequencies in solar-type stars. The
  signature in the oscillation frequencies that is produced by
  the ionization of helium is approximated by two decaying periodic
  functions with periods that are twice the acoustic depths of the
  centres of the HeI and HeII ionization regions. We indicate how an
  approximation to the variation of the first adiabatic exponent, γ,
  leads to a simple representation of the oscillatory contribution to the
  second frequency differences which can be used as a diagnostic of the
  helium abundance of the star; and we show that our explicit inclusion
  of the first ionization of helium, even though it is merged with the
  ionization of hydrogen, provides a representation which is superior
  to the corresponding representation that takes only HeII ionization
  into account.

  Line profile variations in γ Equ show the classic blue-to-red traveling
  bumps of m-modes resolved by rotation, and they have been identified
  as l= 2 or 3, m = -l or -ll+1 by characterising the line shapes using
  the moment method. The mode identifications cannot be correct, however,
  since γ Equ is an extremely slowly rotating star (P<SUB>rot</SUB> &gt;
  70 yr). We propose an alternative interpretation, according to which
  the observed line profile variations are a manifestation of a shock wave
  in the high atmosphere near the magnetic polar regions; the oscillation
  mode is then still consistent with the photometric observations.

Title: Some remarks on solar neutrinos
Authors: Gough, D.
2003Ap&SS.285..341G    Altcode:
  In 1970 Fred Hoyle encouraged a study of solar neutrino production
  which led to along-term investigation of the influence of what have
  become known as `non-standard' processes (i.e. processes that are
  not accounted for in the relatively naively constructed so-called
  `standard' theoretical solar models). The outcome is a very much
  sounder understanding of the structure and dynamics of the Sun,
  which has yielded a knowledge of conditions in the energy-generating
  core so precise that one can set quite tight reliable constraints on
  neutrino-producing nuclear reactions, and thereby provide an important
  contribution to the study of neutrino transitions.

Title: The seismic radius of the Sun, and structure inversions
Authors: Takata, M.; Gough, D. O.
2003ESASP.517..397T    Altcode: 2003soho...12..397T
  It is known (Schou et al., 1997; Antia, 1998) that the effective radius
  of the Sun determined by f-mode frequencies is different by a few
  hundredths per cent from the photospheric radius determined by direct
  photometric measurement (Brown and Christensen-Dalsgaard 1998). It is
  fair to say that we still do not fully comprehend the implications
  of the difference, save that the two radii are rather different
  quantities: the radius inferred from f-mode frequencies is determined
  by the location of the maximum in the f-mode energy (Gough, 1993),
  whereas the photospheric radius is determined by extrapolation to some
  prescribed optical depth from a fiducial point in the limb-darkening
  function using a theoretical solar model. Both depend in particular on
  the structure of the upper superadiabatic convective boundary layer, the
  physics of which is not well understood. In this report we attempt to
  shed some light on the difference by determining a seismic radius from
  p-mode frequencies; the outcome depends predominantly on the variation
  of sound speed, and it is consistent with the f-mode value (Takata and
  Gough 2001). By considering the mathematical structure of an inversion
  process that does not explicitly distinguish f modes from p modes, we
  offer an interpretation of the seismic radius. This interpretation has
  led us to revise the method by which we carry out structure inversions.

  the manner in which they do. By so doing I hope to increase appreciation
  of the nature of the stellar calibrations, and thereby provide a means

  We have examined the effect on linear helioseismic inversions of
  correlations in data errors, taking an example from one-dimensional
  rotational splitting inversion. Artificial data with correlated errors
  were generated and then inverted with or without using the proper
  covariance matrix. The effects of using incorrect covariance matrices,
  on solutions as well as on trade-offs, are discussed. It is found
  that improper account of the correlations can be deleterious to the
  faithfulness of the inversions, and yields incorrect error estimates,
  which under some circumstances can lead to misleading inferences.

2002A&A...390.1119G    Altcode:
  With over 5 years of GOLF data having some 90% continuity, a new
  attempt has been made to search for possible solar g modes. Statistical
  methods are used, based on the minimum of assumptions regarding the
  solar physics; namely that mode line-widths are small compared with
  the inverse of the observing time, and that modes are sought in the
  frequency interval 150 to 400 mu Hz. A number of simulations are carried
  out in order to understand the expected behaviour of a system consisting
  principally of a solar noise continuum overlaid with some weak sharp
  resonances. The method adopted is based on the FFT analysis of a time
  series with zero-padding by a factor of 5. One prominent resonance at
  284.666 mu Hz coincides with a previous tentative assignment as one
  member of an n=1, l=1, p-mode multiplet. Components of two multiplets,
  previously tentatively identified as possible g-mode candidates from
  the GOLF data in 1998, continue to be found, although their statistical
  significance is shown to be insufficient, within the present assumption
  regarding the nature of the signal. An upper limit to the amplitude
  of any g mode present is calculated using two different statistical
  approaches, according to either the assumed absence (H0 hypothesis)
  or the assumed presence (H1 hypothesis) of a signal. The former yields
  a slightly lower limit of around 6 mm/s.

  To what extent does solar activity change the structure of the Sun? And
  what is solar activity, for that matter? Some would say it is the
  gamut of violent events seen in and above the upper atmosphere. If
  that is all it is, then its effect on the Sun itself, that is the
  region beneath the photosphere where almost all the matter resides,
  must be utterly negligible. But if one includes the cause of these
  violent events as part of the activity, then associated structure
  changes in the Sun must be more profound.

  Aspects of helioseismic model calibration pertinent to

  the uncertainties associated with some of the properties of the
  structure of distant stars that can be inferred from the asteroseismic
  data to be obtained by Eddington. It is shown that the seismic data
  to be accrued by Eddington will raise our ability to diagnose the
  structure of stars enormously, even though some previous estimates
  of the errors in the derived stellar parameters appear likely to have
  been somewhat optimistic, because the contribution from the imperfect
  knowledge of the underlying physics was not accounted for.

Title: Oscillations of α UMa and other red giants
Authors: Dziembowski, W. A.; Gough, D. O.; Houdek, G.; Sienkiewicz, R.
2001MNRAS.328..601D    Altcode: 2001astro.ph..8337D
  There is growing observational evidence that the variability of
  red giants could be caused by self-excitation of global modes of
  oscillation. The most recent evidence of such oscillations was reported
  for αUMa by Buzasi et al. who analysed space photometric data from
  the WIRE satellite. Little is understood concerning the oscillation
  properties in red giants. In this paper we address the question as to
  whether excited radial and non-radial modes can explain the observed
  variability in red giants. In particular, we present the results of
  numerical computations of oscillation properties of a model of αUMa
  and of several models of a 2-M<SUB>solar</SUB> star in the red giant
  phase. The red giant stars that we have studied have two cavities that
  can support oscillations: the inner core that supports gravity (g)
  waves and the outer one that supports acoustic (p) waves. Most of the
  modes in the p-mode frequency range are g modes confined in the core;
  those modes with frequencies close to a corresponding characteristic
  frequency of a p mode in the outer cavity are of mixed character and
  have substantial amplitudes in the outer cavity. We have shown that
  such modes of low degree, l=1 and 2, together with the radial (p)
  modes, can be unstable. The linear growth rates of these non-radial
  modes are similar to those of corresponding radial modes. In the model
  of αUMa and in the 2-M<SUB>solar</SUB> models in the lower regions of
  the giant branch, high amplitudes in the p-mode cavity arise only for
  modes with l=2. We have been unable to explain the observed oscillation
  properties of αUMa, either in terms of mode instability or in terms of
  stochastic excitation by turbulent convection. The modes with the lowest
  frequencies, which exhibit the largest amplitudes and may correspond to
  the first three radial modes, are computed to be unstable if all of the
  effects of convection are neglected in the stability analyses. However,
  if the Lagrangian perturbations of the turbulent fluxes (heat and
  momentum) are taken into account in the pulsation calculation, only
  modes with higher frequencies are found to be unstable. The observed
  frequency dependence of amplitudes reported by Buzasi et al. does not
  agree with what one expects from stochastic excitation. This mechanism
  predicts an amplitude of the fundamental mode about two orders of
  magnitude smaller than the amplitudes of modes with orders n&gt;=5,
  which is in stark disagreement with the observations.

  Measurements of both solar irradiance and p-mode oscillation
  frequencies indicate that the structure of the Sun changes with
  the solar cycle. Balmforth, Gough &amp; Merryfield investigated the
  effect of symmetrical thermal disturbances on the solar structure
  and the resulting pulsation frequency changes. They concluded that
  thermal perturbations alone cannot account for the variations in both
  irradiance and p-mode frequencies, and that the presence of a magnetic
  field affecting acoustical propagation is the most likely explanation
  of the frequency change, in the manner suggested earlier by Gough &amp;
  Thompson and by Goldreich et al. Numerical simulations of Boussinesq
  convection in a magnetic field have shown that at high Rayleigh number
  the magnetic field can modify the preferred horizontal length scale
  of the convective flow. Here, we investigate the effect of changing
  the horizontal length scale of convective eddies on the linewidths
  of the acoustic resonant mode peaks observed in helioseismic power
  spectra. The turbulent fluxes in these model computations are obtained
  from a time-dependent, non-local generalization of the mixing-length
  formalism. The modelled variations are compared with p-mode linewidth
  changes revealed by the analysis of helioseismic data collected by
  the Birmingham Solar-Oscillations Network (BiSON); these low-degree
  (low-l) observations cover the complete falling phase of solar activity
  cycle 22. The results are also discussed in the light of observations
  of solar-cycle variations of the horizontal size of granules and with
  results from 2D simulations by Steffen of convective granules.

Title: On the dipolar f mode of stellar oscillation
Authors: Christensen-Dalsgaard, J.; Gough, D. O.
2001MNRAS.326.1115C    Altcode:
  The classification of adiabatic modes of non-radial stellar oscillation
  was established by Cowling in 1941. In addition to acoustic and
  gravity modes he identified an intermediate mode, which he labelled
  the f mode, and which in simple stellar models has no radial node. The
  motion of a dipolar f mode (of spherical-harmonic degree l=1) shifts
  the centre of mass, and must have zero frequency. On the other hand,
  if the perturbation to the gravitational potential is neglected (the
  case considered by Cowling) the f mode has a frequency intermediate
  between those of the gravity and acoustic modes; this is true of
  modes of any degree (l&gt;=1). Here we consider the properties of the
  dipolar f mode, elucidating the origin of these differences through
  continuous transformations between the various relevant cases; in
  addition, we discuss the broader issues of the classification of modes
  of non-radial oscillation.

  Three helioseismic instruments on the Solar and Heliospheric Observatory
  have observed the Sun almost continuously since early 1996. This
  has led to detailed study of the biases induced by the instruments
  that measure intensity or Doppler velocity variation. Photospheric
  turbulence hardly influences the tiny signature of conditions in the
  energy-generating core in the low-order modes, which are therefore very
  informative. We use sound-speed and density profiles inferred from GOLF
  and MDI data including these modes, together with recent improvements
  to stellar model computations, to build a spherically symmetric
  seismically adjusted model in agreement with the observations. The
  model is in hydrostatic and thermal balance and produces the present
  observed luminosity. In constructing the model, we adopt the best
  physics available, although we adjust some fundamental ingredients,
  well within the commonly estimated errors, such as the p-p reaction
  rate (+1%) and the heavy-element abundance (+3.5%); we also examine the
  sensitivity of the density profile to the nuclear reaction rates. Then,
  we deduce the corresponding emitted neutrino fluxes and consequently
  demonstrate that it is unlikely that the deficit of the neutrino fluxes
  measured on Earth can be explained by a spherically symmetric classical
  model without neutrino flavor transitions. Finally, we discuss the
  limitations of our results and future developments.

Authors: Balmforth, N. J.; Cunha, M. S.; Dolez, N.; Gough, D. O.;
   Vauclair, S.
2001MNRAS.323..362B    Altcode:
  We investigate a model for the excitation of high-order oscillations
  in roAp stars. In this model we assume that the strong concentration
  of magnetic field about the magnetic poles is enough to suppress
  convection. Thus the model considered is composed of two polar regions,
  in which convection is presumed to be suppressed totally, and an
  equatorial region, where the convection is unaffected. This model
  is generated by building pairs of locally spherically symmetrical
  equilibria to represent the polar and equatorial regions of the
  star, which are patched together below the base of the convection
  zone. Gravitational settling of heavy elements is taken into account
  by choosing appropriate chemical composition profiles for both the
  polar and equatorial regions. Our results indicate that the composite
  model is unstable against axisymmetric non-radial high-order modes of
  pulsation that are aligned with the magnetic poles. The oscillations
  are excited by the κ mechanism acting principally in the hydrogen
  ionization zones of the polar regions. The effect of the lateral
  inhomogeneity on the second frequency differences is also investigated;
  we find that the perturbation to them by the inhomogeneity is of the
  same order as the second differences themselves, thereby hindering
  potential attempts to use such differences to identify the degrees of
  the modes in a straightforward way.

  In recent years, normal-mode helioseismology has shown that the
  spherically averaged sound-speed distribution throughout the solar
  interior is in remarkable agreement with suitable standard solar
  models. This implies that any deviation of the theoretical models
  from the Sun has only a very small influence on the oscillation
  frequency spectrum (excluding the contributions from the uncertain
  near-surface layers). Nevertheless, it is important to determine
  whether the Sun really is very similar to a standard model, or whether
  there are substantial differences. This is especially important of
  the energy-generating core, particularly because it is likely to
  be necessary to understand the conditions under which the nuclear
  reactions are taking place in order to utilize neutrino detectors to
  the full to measure the properties of neutrino transitions.

Title: Seismology of stellar envelopes: probing the outer layers of
    a star through the scattering of acoustic waves
Authors: Lopes, Ilídio P.; Gough, Douglas
2001MNRAS.322..473L    Altcode:
  The outer layers of Sun-like stars are regions of rapid spatial
  variation which modulate the p-mode frequencies by partially
  reflecting the constituent acoustic waves. With the accuracy that
  has been achieved by current solar observations, and that is expected
  from imminent stellar observations, this modulation can be observed
  from the spectra of the low-degree modes. We present a new and simple
  theoretical calculation to determine the leading terms in an asymptotic
  expansion of the outer phase of these modes, which is determined by
  the structure of the surface layers of the star. Our procedure is to
  compare the stellar envelope with a plane-parallel polytropic envelope,
  which we regard as a smooth reference background state. Then we can
  isolate a seismic signature of the acoustic phase and relate it to the
  stratification of the outer layers of the convection zone. One can
  thereby constrain theories of convection that are used to construct
  the convection zones of the Sun and Sun-like stars. The accuracy of
  the diagnostic is tested in the solar case by comparing the predicted
  outer phase with an exact numerical calculation.

Title: Comparison of phase inversion and time-distance analysis of
    one-dimensional artificial seismic data
Authors: Gough, D. O.; Sekii, T.; Toomre, J.
2001ESASP.464..207G    Altcode: 2001soho...10..207G
  We have studied the application of a phase inversion technique (Gough,
  Merryfield and Toomre 1991, 1993, 1998; Gough, Sekii and Toomre 1998,
  2000) to stochastically excited damped oscillations in an inhomogeneous
  one-dimensional loop, using artificial seismic data (Gough, Sekii and
  Toomre 2000). It has been found that within a parameter range that might
  be relevant to the solar case, strong damping can significantly degrade
  inversions for the wave propagation speed. Here we analyse the same
  artificial data by a time-distance technique, to compare how the two
  techniques differ in their response to the presence of strong damping.

Title: The New Era in Helioseismology
Authors: Gough, D. O.
2001IAUS..203....3G    Altcode:
  The end of the millennium marks the beginning of the third phase
  of helioseismology. The first phase was the establishment of the
  initial astronomical inferences, such as estimates of the depth of the
  solar convection zone and the protosolar helium abundance obtained
  by comparing the seismic properties of theoretical solar models
  with the first wave of helioseismic data acquired using instruments
  that had not been designed for the purpose. The second phase was the
  determination of the spherically symmetric component of the hydrostatic
  stratification throughout most of the solar interior, and the angular
  velocity, using inverse methods to analyse the frequencies of normal
  modes estimated from data obtained most recently from purpose-built
  networks of ground-based observatories and from space. We have reached
  the point beyond which further pursuit of the now-well-tried methods
  to improve the inferences will be apparently slow. The next era will
  be characterized by painstaking attention to detail, to extract a new
  level of precision necessary to isolate subtle properties of the Sun
  for asking more sophisticated questions. We are already seeing the
  normal-mode representation of helioseismic waves being complemented
  by other representations that may be more suitable for investigating
  inhomogeneity and time variability particularly of the Sun's surface
  layers. The outcome will enable us to address more accurately issues
  concerning global dynamics, the equation of state and the chemical
  composition, and also the properties of convection and the seat of
  solar activity.

Title: Towards a Generalization of a Mixing-length Model for
Nonradially Pulsating Stars: Convection in a Shear
Authors: Houdek, G.; Gough, D. O.
2001IAUS..203..115H    Altcode:
  Convection models based on the mixing-length approach still represent
  the main method for computing the turbulent fluxes in stars with
  convectively unstable layers. In such layers the pulsationally stability
  of the star is affected not only by the radiative heat flux but also by
  both the modulation of the convective heat flux and by direct mechanical
  coupling of the pulsation with the convective motion via the Reynolds
  stresses. Time-dependent formulations of the mixing-length approach
  for radial pulsation have been proposed for example, by Unno (1967)
  and Gough (1977). Using Gough's model Balmforth (1992) reported good
  agreement between theoretical damping rates of radial p modes of a
  solar model and observed linewidths. In this contribution we discuss a
  generalization of Gough's time-dependent mixing-length formulation for
  nonradial pulsation. The pulsation is described by a time-dependent mean
  flow. The lateral component of this mean flow represents a shearing
  motion in the linearized fluctuation equations. The shearing motion
  stretches the convective elements and generates off-diagonal terms
  in the Reynolds stress tensor. In this description another parameter,
  additional to the mixing-length parameter, is introduced representing
  the angle between the lateral components of the mean flow and of the
  wave vector characterizing the convective element.

Title: The influence of uncertainties in the Sun's radius on
    inversions for the solar structure
Authors: Takata, M.; Gough, D. O.
2001ESASP.464..543T    Altcode: 2001soho...10..543T
  It is customary when carrying out inversions of global p-mode
  frequencies to assume that the radius R<SUB>solar</SUB> of the Sun
  is known. This can introduce systematic error, in part because the
  structure of the Sun between the region of acoustic propagation and
  the visible atmosphere is neither well known nor readily accessible
  seismologically, and in part because there is significant uncertainty
  in the direct measurements of the Sun's radius itself. We demonstrate
  how the influence of this error might be identified, and how it
  might be eliminated from structural inversions. Moreover, the solar
  radius itself is constrained only by the p-mode frequencies. Using
  the SOHO/MDI frequency data, we estimate that R = 695.69+/-0.14 Mm,
  which is consistent with the value determined by the f-mode frequencies
  (Schou et al. 1997). We believe that our result is not so sensitive
  to the uncertainties in the subsurface structure of the Sun because
  their effects on the inversions are more or less removed by taking
  account of the surface term.

Title: Mixing-length analysis of Rayleigh-Bénard convection in the
    presence of a shear
Authors: Gough, D. O.; Houdek, G.
2001ESASP.464..637G    Altcode: 2001soho...10..637G
  According to linearized perturbation theory, an externally implied
  low-amplitude horizontal plane Couette shear distorts the streamlines
  of convective cells. This augments the eddy vorticity. Within the
  framework of the mixing-length formalism in which turbulent convective
  eddies grow according to linearized theory and are subsequently broken
  up by internal shear instability, there is a consequent reduction in
  the mean amplitude of the eddy motion, and a corresponding reduction
  in the heat flux. In its simplest form, the generalization of the
  formalism requires the introduction of no new parameters. Consequently,
  the reduction in the heat flux predicted can be compared with experiment
  to provide an additional calibration of the formalism.

  The m-dependence of the amplitudes of the multiplets of low-degree p
  modes contains information about the latitudinal distribution of the
  power in the excitation of the oscillations. We present estimates of
  those amplitudes from 4 years of VIRGO/LOI observations. Variation of
  the excitation with magnetic activity is studied.

Title: The opacity mechanism in roAp stars
Authors: Cunha, Margarida S.; Gough, Douglas
2001ESASP.464..419C    Altcode: 2001soho...10..419C
  In the present paper we present the first results of work whose
  main goal is to understand the details of the process of high-order
  mode excitation in roAp stars. Motivated by the work by Balmforth et
  al. (1999, 2000), according to which convection might be suppressed in
  the polar regions of roAp stars, we show that in a radiative region
  the excitation of high-order pulsations takes place in the region of
  hydrogen ionization, and is the direct consequence of the abrupt change
  in the opacity derivative κ<SUB>T</SUB> = (∂lnκ/∂lnT)<SUB>ρ</SUB>
  in these layers.

Title: Magnetic perturbations to the acoustic modes of roAp stars
Authors: Cunha, Margarida S.; Gough, Douglas
2000MNRAS.319.1020C    Altcode:
  We study the effect of a large-scale surface magnetic field on the
  non-radial acoustic modes of roAp stars. Special attention is given to
  the use of a variational principle which is used for determining the
  shifts in the frequencies with relative ease, enabling us to avoid
  having to calculate the perturbed eigenfunctions. With knowledge of
  the frequency shifts we then estimate the eigenfunctions in a simpler,
  albeit approximate way. The results indicate frequency shifts of the
  order of few μHz, which depend on the order, degree and azimuthal order
  of the mode. The loss of energy through Alfvén waves is also estimated
  from the imaginary parts of the frequency shifts. The results indicate
  that the loss is particularly high near specific frequencies. This
  might indicate the presence of a selection effect, which could make
  some modes more likely to be excited than others. However, our results
  do not explain why the modes observed appear always to be aligned
  with the axis of the magnetic field. Finally, the estimated perturbed
  eigenfunctions contain strong components of spherical harmonics that
  differ from those of the original unperturbed modes.

Title: On measuring low-degree p-mode frequency splitting with
    full-disc integrated data
Authors: Appourchaux, T.; Chang, H. -Y.; Gough, D. O.; Sekii, T.
2000MNRAS.319..365A    Altcode:
  The standard method of measuring rotational splitting from solar
  full-disc oscillation data, based on maximum-likelihood fitting of
  multi-Lorentzian profiles to oscillation power spectra, systematically
  overestimates the splitting. One of the reasons is that the maximum
  likelihood estimators (MLE) become unbiased only asymptotically as
  the number of data tends to infinity; for a finite data set they
  are often biased, inducing a systematic error. In this paper we
  assess by Monte Carlo simulations the amount of systematic error
  in the splitting measurement, using artificially generated power
  spectra. The simulations are carried out for multiplets of degree
  S(t) = Σ<SUB>k</SUB>S<SUB>k</SUB>(t), l=1, 2 and 3 with various
  signal-to-noise ratios, linewidths and observing times. We address
  the possible use of non-MLE estimators that could provide a smaller
  or negligible systematic error. The implication for asteroseismology
  is also discussed.

Title: Seismology of the solar envelope: sound-speed gradient in

2000MNRAS.316...71B    Altcode:
  We report the results of an asymptotic inversion of solar oscillation
  data for the gradient of the sound speed in the convection zone. This
  gradient reveals details of the non-ideal Coulomb interactions between
  particles, including pressure ionization. A simplified physical model
  is used to track down the effect of various physical assumptions in
  the sound-speed derivative. The model contains a calibration for the
  size of the H and He atoms and the He<SUP>+</SUP> ion. We find that,
  for the pressure-ionization regions of hydrogen and helium, such a
  model matches the data better than any of the currently available
  parameter-free theories.

  Observations made by the Michelson Doppler Imager (MDI) and Variability
  of solar IRradiance and Gravity Oscillations (VIRGO) on the Solar and
  Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO) and by the ground-based Birmingham
  Solar Oscillations Network (BiSON) and Global Oscillations Network
  Group (GONG) have been used in a concerted effort to search for solar
  gravity oscillations. All spectra are dominated by solar noise in the
  frequency region from 100 to 1000 μHz, where g-modes are expected to be
  found. Several methods have been used in an effort to extract any g-mode
  signal present. These include (1) the correlation of data-both full-disk
  and imaged (with different spatial-mask properties)-collected over
  different time intervals from the same instrument, (2) the correlation
  of near-contemporaneous data from different instruments, and (3) the
  extraction-through the application of complex filtering techniques-of
  the coherent part of data collected at different heights in the solar
  atmosphere. The detection limit is set by the loss of coherence
  caused by the temporal evolution and the motion (e.g., rotation)
  of superficial structures. Although we cannot identify any g-mode
  signature, we have nevertheless set a firm upper limit to the amplitudes
  of the modes: at 200 μHz, they are below 10 mm s<SUP>-1</SUP> in
  velocity, and below 0.5 parts per million in intensity. The velocity
  limit corresponds very approximately to a peak-to-peak vertical
  displacement of δR/R<SUB>solar</SUB>=2.3×10<SUP>-8</SUP> at the
  solar surface. These levels which are much lower than prior claims,
  are consistent with theoretical predictions.

Title: Towards Understanding Solar Convection and Activity -
    (Invited Review)
Authors: Gough, Douglas
2000SoPh..192....3G    Altcode:
  The dynamics of the large-scale eddies which advect angular momentum
  through the convection zone is controlled in a significant way by the
  boundary conditions, which, if they are not modelled adequately, do
  not lead to a distribution of angular velocity that is consistent with
  observation. The transition boundary layer separating the convection
  zone from the radiative interior is thought to play a critical role in
  controlling the magnetic field in the convection zone, and is probably
  not wholly irrelevant to understanding the cycle of solar activity.

Title: Free energy of a screened ion pair
Authors: Brüggen, M.; Gough, D. O.
2000JMP....41..260B    Altcode: 2000JMPS...41..260B
  We calculate the effect of weak electrostatic screening of ions in a
  plasma. The original calculation by Salpeter is based on a linearization
  of the Poisson-Boltzmann equation for the screened electrostatic
  potential. This approximation is valid where the potential is small,
  but is formally invalid in the vicinity of the ions where the solutions
  for the potential and the associated charge distribution diverge. In
  reality, quantum exclusion must prevent the divergence of the charge
  density of the screening cloud. Nevertheless, in the limit in which
  screening is weak, Salpeter's value for the total screening energy is
  essentially correct. Here we extend Salpeter's calculation to account
  approximately for both quantum-mechanical exclusion in the vicinity
  of the ions, using what we call the Poisson-Boltzmann-Fermi-Dirac
  approximation, and the polarization of the screening cloud. By matching
  the solution onto an expression for the two-center Poisson-Boltzmann
  charge distribution far from the ions we are able to construct a
  consistent solution over all space. We obtain the first-order term in
  the expansion of that solution, from which we calculate the free-energy
  associated with the screened ion pair.

  In the present work we develop a theoretical model for roAp stars
  characterized by the suppression of convection around the magnetic
  poles. When calculating the growth rates of acoustic oscillations in
  models of this type we find that most models whose positions in the
  HR diagram coincide with that of the observed roAp stars are unstable
  against high-order pulsations.

1999A&A...351..582H    Altcode: 1999astro.ph..9107H
  We present estimates of the amplitudes of intrinsically stable
  stochastically excited radial oscillations in stars near the
  main sequence. The amplitudes are determined by the balance
  between acoustical energy generation by turbulent convection (the
  Lighthill mechanism) and linear damping. Convection is treated with
  a time-dependent, nonlocal, mixing-length model, which includes both
  convective heat flux and turbulent pressure in both the equilibrium
  model and the pulsations. Velocity and luminosity amplitudes are
  computed for stars with masses between 0.9 M_sun and 2.0 M_sun in the
  vicinity of the main sequence, for various metallicities and convection
  parameters. As in previous studies, the amplitudes are found to increase
  with stellar mass, and therefore with luminosity. Amongst those stars
  that are pulsationally stable, the largest amplitudes are predicted
  for a 1.6 M_sun model of spectral type F2; the values are approximately
  15 times larger than those measured in the Sun.

Title: Prospects for Measuring Differential Rotation in White Dwarfs
    through Asteroseismology
Authors: Kawaler, Steven D.; Sekii, Takashi; Gough, Douglas
1999ApJ...516..349K    Altcode: 1998astro.ph.11286K
  We examine the potential of asteroseismology for exploring the internal
  rotation of white dwarf stars. Data from global observing campaigns
  have revealed a wealth of frequencies, some of which show the signature
  of rotational splitting. Tools developed for helioseismology to use
  many solar p-mode frequencies for inversion of the rotation rate with
  depth are adapted to the case of more limited numbers of modes of
  low degree. We find that the small number of available modes in white
  dwarfs, coupled with the similarity between the rotational-splitting
  kernels of the modes, renders direct inversion unstable. Accordingly,
  we adopt what we consider to be plausible functional forms for the
  differential rotation profile; this is sufficiently restrictive to
  enable us to carry out a useful calibration. We show examples of this
  technique for PG 1159 stars and pulsating DB white dwarfs. Published
  frequency splittings for white dwarfs are currently not accurate
  enough for meaningful inversions; reanalysis of existing data can
  provide splittings of sufficient accuracy when the frequencies of
  individual peaks are extracted via least-squares fitting or multipeak
  decompositions. We find that, when mode trapping is evident in the
  period spacing of g modes, the measured splittings can constrain dΩ/dr.

  Material circulation in the solar tachocline mixes the tachocline
  material with the convection zone, which causes the sound speed in
  and immediately beneath the tachocline to exceed what one would expect
  from current standard solar models. Calibration against a helioseismic
  determination of the sound speed from SOI/MDI data of a sequence of
  solar models having mixed layers of different thicknesses yields a value
  of 0.019 R<SUB>solar</SUB> for the mean tachocline thickness Δ, with a
  formal standard error of about 5%. This value for Δ is somewhat smaller
  than previous estimates based on measuring shear in the seismically
  inferred angular velocity, and it has important implications concerning
  our understanding of the magnetohydrodynamics of the tachocline.

  theoretical models of the Sun in such a way as to prevent them from
  explaining the neutrino flux measurements without recourse to neutrino
  transitions. However, standard solar models do not represent the entire
  class of plausible models, and indeed they suffer the deficiency of
  being unstable. Models in which the products of the nuclear reactions
  are redistributed in the core may represent the Sun more closely,
  and should at least be considered and tested further in the process
  of developing a reliable model of the neutrino source.

Title: Solar Convection and the Activity Cycle
Authors: Houdek, G.; Gough, D. O.
1999soho....9E..65H    Altcode:
  Measurements of both solar irradiance and p-mode oscillation
  frequencies indicate that the structure of the sun changes with the
  solar cycle. Balmforth, Gough &amp; Merryfield (1996) investigated
  the effect of symmetrical thermal disturbances on the solar structure
  and the resulting pulsation frequency changes using a time-dependent,
  local mixing-length formulation for computing the stratification of the
  convection zone. In this contribution we follow the work by Balmforth
  et al. and model the disturbances by introducing a time-dependent
  inhomogeneous term in the linearized equations governing the structural
  changes of the star about the undisturbed state. The perturbations of
  the turbulent fluxes are obtained from a nonlocal generalization (Gough
  1976) of the time-dependent mixing-length formulation. We investigate
  the effect of changing the horizontal length scale of convective eddies
  on p-mode properties, in particular on the linewidths of the spectral
  peaks in the acoustical power spectrum. The results are discussed in
  the light of observations of solar-cycle variations of the horizontal
  size of granules and with results from 2-D simulations by Steffen
  (1987) of convective granules.

  the effects of these, using a simple model of stochastically excited
  damped oscillations of a one-dimensional loop. The results of phase
  inversions for various cases will be presented and various strategies
  to overcome the difficulty will be discussed.

  horizontal motions within the solar convection beneath the localized
  regions where the observations are taken. To leading order, the
  flow field responsible for the advection of waves is taken to be
  horizontally uniform across the region. Current ring-diagram analyses
  are only carried out to this order, although in reality the flow
  is likely to vary across the local patch of the Sun. It is crucial
  for the interpretation of the results of ring-diagram analyses that
  the effects of shearing flows be assessed. Furthermore, the present
  analyses ignore any influence on the ring parameters of flows exterior
  to the region being studied. We present a progress report on the
  forward calculation of the modification of ring parameters produced
  by spatially varying flow fields. We examine effects of flow fields
  both inside and outside the region of observation. Additionally,
  we assess the influence of the non-uniform flow on the maps of the
  velocity field obtained by inverting the ring-parameter data. The
  effect of the inhomogeneous flow can be studied as a scattering
  problem. We have developed Green functions connecting an underlying
  inhomogeneous horizontal flow to the scattered wave field that results
  when an incident plane wave encounters the flow. By considering an
  ensemble of such incident waves, ring parameters can be inferred from
  the wave field. One application is to analyze artificial data sets,
  computed from models that contain horizontal shear flows. The scattered
  wave field produced by a prescribed 3-D shearing flow is computed,
  and the original and scattered wave fields are combined to generate an
  artificial helioseismic data set. The artificial data so produced should
  then be passed through a ring-diagram analysis and the deduced velocity
  field compared to the known imposed flow. Another application is to
  compute 3-D kernels relating the ring parameters to the underlying flow:
  these will in the future permit 3-D inversions for the flows within
  the solar convection zone, using mosaics of many ring-diagram samplings.

Title: Inversion for the internal structure and rotation of the Sun
    and other sun-like stars
Authors: Gough, D. O.
1998mons.proc...33G    Altcode:
  Asteroseismic data of the kind accessible to MONS add enormously to
  the observational information that we can gather about stars. Even
  simple calibrations of theoretical stellar models based on elementary
  combinations of oscillation frequencies enable us to refine our
  knowledge of the interior structure of a star substantially. More
  sophisticated analyses permit us to proceed further, and to address
  specific questions that are pertinent to our more general understanding
  of the structure and evolution of stars.

  The splitting of the frequencies of the global resonant acoustic modes
  of the Sun by large-scale flows and rotation permits study of the
  variation of angular velocity Ω with both radius and latitude within
  the turbulent convection zone and the deeper radiative interior. The
  nearly uninterrupted Doppler imaging observations, provided by the
  Solar Oscillations Investigation (SOI) using the Michelson Doppler
  Imager (MDI) on the Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO) spacecraft
  positioned at the L<SUB>1</SUB> Lagrangian point in continuous sunlight,
  yield oscillation power spectra with very high signal-to-noise ratios
  that allow frequency splittings to be determined with exceptional
  accuracy. This paper reports on joint helioseismic analyses of
  solar rotation in the convection zone and in the outer part of the
  radiative core. Inversions have been obtained for a medium-l mode set
  (involving modes of angular degree l extending to about 250) obtained
  from the first 144 day interval of SOI-MDI observations in 1996. Drawing
  inferences about the solar internal rotation from the splitting data
  is a subtle process. By applying more than one inversion technique
  to the data, we get some indication of what are the more robust
  and less robust features of our inversion solutions. Here we have
  used seven different inversion methods. To test the reliability and
  sensitivity of these methods, we have performed a set of controlled
  experiments utilizing artificial data. This gives us some confidence
  in the inferences we can draw from the real solar data. The inversions
  of SOI-MDI data have confirmed that the decrease of Ω with latitude
  seen at the surface extends with little radial variation through much
  of the convection zone, at the base of which is an adjustment layer,
  called the tachocline, leading to nearly uniform rotation deeper
  in the radiative interior. A prominent rotational shearing layer in
  which Ω increases just below the surface is discernible at low to
  mid latitudes. Using the new data, we have also been able to study the
  solar rotation closer to the poles than has been achieved in previous
  investigations. The data have revealed that the angular velocity
  is distinctly lower at high latitudes than the values previously
  extrapolated from measurements at lower latitudes based on surface
  Doppler observations and helioseismology. Furthermore, we have found
  some evidence near latitudes of 75° of a submerged polar jet which
  is rotating more rapidly than its immediate surroundings. Superposed
  on the relatively smooth latitudinal variation in Ω are alternating
  zonal bands of slightly faster and slower rotation, each extending
  some 10° to 15° in latitude. These relatively weak banded flows
  have been followed by inversion to a depth of about 5% of the solar
  radius and appear to coincide with the evolving pattern of “torsional
  oscillations” reported from earlier surface Doppler studies.

Title: Inevitability of a magnetic field in the Sun's radiative
    interior
Authors: Gough, D. O.; McIntyre, M. E.
1998Natur.394..755G    Altcode:
  The gas in the convective outer layers of the Sun rotates faster at the
  equator than in the polar regions, yet deeper inside (in the radiative
  zone) the gas rotates almost uniformly. There is a thin transition
  layer between these zones, called the tachocline. This structure has
  been measured seismologically, but no purely fluid-dynamical mechanism
  can explain its existence. Here we argue that a self-consistent model
  requires a large-scale magnetic field in the Sun's interior, as well
  as consideration of the Coriolis effects in the convection zone and
  in the tachocline. Turbulent stresses in the convection zone induce
  (through Coriolis effects) a meridional circulation, causing the gas
  from the convection zone to burrow downwards, thereby generating the
  horizontal and vertical shear that characterizes the tachocline. The
  interior magnetic field stops the burrowing, and confines the shear,
  as demanded by the observed structure of the tachocline. We outline a
  dynamical theory of the flow, from which we estimate a field strength
  of about 10<SUP>-4</SUP> tesla just beneath the tachocline. An
  important test of this picture, after numerical refinement, will be
  quantitative consistency between the predicted and observed interior
  angular velocities.

Title: Phase Inversion: Inferring Solar Subphotospheric Flow and
    Other Asphericity from the Distortion of Acoustic Waves
Authors: Gough, Douglas; Merryfield, William J.; Toomre, Juri
1998ApJ...501..882G    Altcode:
  A method is proposed for analyzing an almost monochromatic train of
  waves propagating in a single direction in an inhomogenous medium that
  is not otherwise changing in time. An effective phase is defined in
  terms of the Hilbert transform of the wave function, which is related,
  via the JWKB approximation, to the spatial variation of the background
  state against which the wave is propagating. The contaminating effect
  of interference between the truly monochromatic components of the train
  is eliminated using its propagation properties. Measurement errors,
  provided they are uncorrelated, are manifest as rapidly varying noise;
  although that noise can dominate the raw phase-processed signal, it can
  largely be removed by low-pass filtering. The intended purpose of the
  analysis is to determine the distortion of solar oscillations induced by
  horizontal structural variation and material flow. It should be possible
  to apply the method directly to sectoral modes. The horizontal phase
  distortion provides a measure of longitudinally averaged properties
  of the Sun in the vicinity of the equator, averaged also in radius
  down to the depth to which the modes penetrate. By combining such
  averages from different modes, the two-dimensional variation can be
  inferred by standard inversion techniques. After taking due account
  of horizontal refraction, it should be possible to apply the technique
  also to locally sectoral modes that propagate obliquely to the equator
  and thereby build a network of lateral averages at each radius, from
  which the full three-dimensional structure of the Sun can, in principle,
  be determined as an inverse Radon transform.

Title: On the Composition of the Solar Interior Rapporteur Paper I
Authors: Gough, Douglas
1998SSRv...85..141G    Altcode:
  Standard solar models, although they are free from the influence of
  much of the fluid motion that is bound to be present in the Sun, have
  been shown by helioseismology to represent the spherically averaged
  structure of the Sun amazingly well. This state of affairs has come
  about after painstaking refinements by a great many people of the
  pertinent microphysics, including that which controls the equation
  of state, the opacity, the nuclear reaction rates and the diffusion
  that inhibits gravitational segregation of chemical elements. It has
  instilled confidence in the modellers in being able to predict the
  composition of the solar interior. But there are consequences of the
  flow, related particularly to redistribution of chemical species, that
  can be difficult to identify observationally, yet which may degrade
  any inferences we might make. Their potential presence must at least
  be acknowledged by anyone who tries to asses the reliability of the
  models. This report summarizes the discussions in the preceding pages
  of this volume of the current theoretical and observational status of
  the subject, pointing to many of the caveats that have been raised,
  and attempting at the same time to put them into a seemingly coherent
  discourse in the context of our present understanding of the workings
  of the solar interior.

Authors: Elliott, J. R.; Gough, D. O.; Sekii, T.
1998ESASP.418..763E    Altcode: 1998soho....6..763E
  Inversions of rotational splitting data reveal the existence of a
  shear layer at the base of the convection zone, which is known as the
  tachocline. The angular velocity in the convection zone varies with
  latitude, whereas the angular velocity in the outer layers of the
  radiative envelope is more nearly uniform. The differential rotation
  of the convection zone is no doubt driven by anisotropic Reynolds
  stresses associated with the turbulent convection. It is likely
  that the radiative envelope is held rigid by a large-scale magnetic
  field. The transition between the two is too sharp to be resolved
  by the seismic splitting data. However, it must necessarily support
  an Ekman circulation (Spiegel &amp; Zahn, 1992), which advects heavy
  elements that have settled under gravity back into the convection zone,
  causing an abrupt discontinuity in chemical composition at the base of
  the tachocline, thereby modifying the hydrostatic stratification. We
  have calibrated theoretical solar models incorporating the tachocline
  mixing against the latest seismic data from SOI/MDI, from which we have
  obtained a value for the tachocline thickness which is substantially
  more precise than the formal resolving power of the seismic data.

  The method of phase inversion have been proposed and tested for simple
  cases by Gough, Merryfield and Toomre(1991,1993,1998) for detection of
  inhomogeneity in media by observing wave propagation. We discuss some of
  the difficulties that are encountered with the procedure in practice,
  and what might be done to overcome them in transferring the technique
  to the solar case, such as in the study of horizontal inhomogeneity in
  the solar cavity along the equator using the MDI sectoral-mode data. A
  complication seems to arise, aside from observational problems, from
  the fact that the waves are not only scattered by inhomogeneity, but
  are also excited and damped, as is observed in the broadening of the
  ridges in the k-ω diagram.

  Continuing our previous study (Gough 1996, also see Kosovichev et
  al. 1995) on the effects of correlated errors on linear inversions,
  we investigate how the optimally localized averaging method and the
  regularized least-square fitting method, both of which are `optimal'
  in different ways, respond differently to the use of wrong covariance
  matrices in one-dimensional rotation inversions. Our results demonstrate
  how important it is to exercise care in estimating error correlations
  when trying to extract mode frequencies from helioseismic data.

  The structure of the surface layers of the Sun is changed by the
  magnetic activity. This, in turn, affects the boundary of the acoustic

  frequency changes are produced predominantly by sunspots.

  of the rotation axis could vary as a function of radius. We have tried
  to check whether the assumption of rotation about a unique axis is
  consistent with helioseismic data. We report on an attempt to measure
  the directions of the pulsation axes of several low-degree modes of
  oscillation in the LOI/SOHO Fourier spectra.

  The amplitudes of solar p-modes decrease steeply with decreasing
  radial order below about 17. The background solar signal (solar noise)
  in general increases steadily with decreasing frequency. For the
  irradiance and radiance measurements with VIRGO or SOI/MDI on SOHO this
  combination makes it difficult to detect low degree modes below about
  1.8 mHz. The solar noise as observed in velocity with SOI/MDI or the
  ground based BISON network is significantly lower in this region than
  in intensity measurements. This allows low degree modes to be observed
  close to 1 mHz. We present results of detection and charaterization
  of the lowest order observable p-modes both in velocity and intensity
  measurements. Where applicable the properties of the modes observed
  with the two methods are compared.

Title: On the Effect of Acoustical Radiation on Convection in
    Solar-type Stars
Authors: Houdek, G.; Gough, D. O.
1998ESASP.418..479H    Altcode: 1998soho....6..479H
  Essentially all the theories used today for computing the stratification
  of convection zones in stellar models assume the anelastic approximation
  to the fluid equations. In this approximation the time derivative
  in the density fluctuation in the continuity equation is neglected,
  which is equivalent to filtering-out high-frequency phenomena such as
  sound waves. This approximation is certainly not valid in the upper
  layers of the convective domain in solar-type stars and red giants,
  where the convective velocities of the turbulent elements may become
  comparable with the local sound speed in the background fluid. Through
  the generation of sound waves (Lighthill mechanism), kinetic energy
  from the turbulent motion will be converted into acoustic radiation and
  thus reduce the efficacy with which the motion might otherwise have
  released potential energy originating from the buoyancy forces. In
  this contribution we investigate the effect of acoustical radiation
  upon the retardation of the convective velocities in solar-type stars
  with masses of (1.0 -- 1.9) M<SUB>odot</SUB>. The turbulent fluxes
  (heat and momentum) are obtained from a nonlocal generalization of
  the mixing-length theory. The acoustic flux is assumed to be generated
  by the fluctuating Reynolds stress (quadrupole emission) and is thus
  proportional to the eighth power of the convective velocities. Through
  the inclusion of the acoustic flux in the equilibrium model, the
  turbulent Mach number for a 1.6 M<SUB>odot</SUB> ZAMS star is found
  to be reduced by about 10%.

  We report on the latest inferences concerning solar differential
  rotation that have been drawn from the helioseismic data that are now
  available from the Solar Oscillations Investigation (SOI) using the
  Michelson Doppler Imager (MDI) on the Solar and Heliospheric Observatory
  (SOHO). That spacecraft is positioned in a halo orbit near the Sun-Earth
  Lagrangian point L_1, in order to obtain continuous Doppler-imaged
  observations of the sun with high spatial fidelity. Doppler velocity,
  intensity and magnetic field images are recorded, based on modulations
  of the 676.8 nm Ni I solar absorption line. The high spatial resolution
  of MDI thereby permits the study of many millions of global resonant
  modes of solar oscillation. Determination and subsequent inversion
  of the frequencies of these modes, including the degeneracy-splitting
  by the rotation of the sun, enables us to infer how the sun's angular
  velocity varies throughout much of the interior. The current MDI data
  are providing substantial refinements to the helioseismic deductions
  that can be made about differential rotation both within the convection
  zone and in its transition to the radiative interior. The shearing
  layer evident in the angular velocity Omega just below the solar
  surface is becoming better defined, as is the adjustment layer or
  tachocline near the base of the convection zone. The MDI data are also
  revealing a prominent decrease in Omega at high latitudes from the
  rotation rate expressed by a simple three-term expansion in latitude
  that was originally deduced from surface Doppler measurements. Further,
  there are indications that a submerged polar vortex involving somewhat
  faster Omega than its surroundings exists at about 75(deg) in latitudes.

  There has been some controversy over the expression for the so-called
  interaction energy associated with screening of charged particles
  in a plasma. Even in the relatively simple case of weak screening,
  first discussed in the context of astrophysical plasmas by Salpeter,
  there is disagreement. In particular, Shaviv and Shaviv have recently
  claimed that by not considering explicitly the complete screening cloud
  in his calculation, Salpeter obtained a result for the interaction
  energy between two nuclei separated by a distance r that in the limit r
  --&gt; 0 is only 2/3 the correct value. It appears that this claim has
  arisen from a fundamental misconception concerning the dynamics of the
  interaction. We rectify this misconception, and show that Salpeter's
  formula is indeed correct.

  The medium-l program of the Michelson Doppler Imager instrument on board
  SOHO provides continuous observations of oscillation modes of angular
  degree, l, from 0 to ∽ 300. The data for the program are partly
  processed on board because only about 3% of MDI observations can be
  transmitted continuously to the ground. The on-board data processing,
  the main component of which is Gaussian-weighted binning, has been
  optimized to reduce the negative influence of spatial aliasing of the
  high-degree oscillation modes. The data processing is completed in a
  data analysis pipeline at the SOI Stanford Support Center to determine
  the mean multiplet frequencies and splitting coefficients. The initial
  results show that the noise in the medium-l oscillation power spectrum
  is substantially lower than in ground-based measurements. This enables
  us to detect lower amplitude modes and, thus, to extend the range of
  measured mode frequencies. This is important for inferring the Sun's
  internal structure and rotation. The MDI observations also reveal the
  asymmetry of oscillation spectral lines. The line asymmetries agree
  with the theory of mode excitation by acoustic sources localized in the
  upper convective boundary layer. The sound-speed profile inferred from
  the mean frequencies gives evidence for a sharp variation at the edge
  of the energy-generating core. The results also confirm the previous
  finding by the GONG (Gough et al., 1996) that, in a thin layer just
  beneath the convection zone, helium appears to be less abundant than
  predicted by theory. Inverting the multiplet frequency splittings from
  MDI, we detect significant rotational shear in this thin layer. This
  layer is likely to be the place where the solar dynamo operates. In
  order to understand how the Sun works, it is extremely important to
  observe the evolution of this transition layer throughout the 11-year
  activity cycle.

  First results from the VIRGO experiment (Variability of solar IRradiance
  and Gravity Oscillations) on the ESA/NASA Mission SOHO (Solar and
  Heliospheric Observatory) are reported. The observations started
  mid-January 1996 for the radiometers and sunphotometers and near the
  end of March for the luminosity oscillation imager. The performance of
  all the instruments is very good, and the time series of the first 4-6
  months are evaluated in terms of solar irradiance variability, solar
  background noise characteristics and p-mode oscillations. The solar
  irradiance is modulated by the passage of active regions across the
  disk, but not all of the modulation is straightforwardly explained in
  terms of sunspot flux blocking and facular enhancement. Helioseismic
  inversions of the observed p-mode frequencies are more-or-less in
  agreement with the latest standard solar models. The comparison of
  VIRGO results with earlier ones shows evidence that magnetic activity
  plays a significant role in the dynamics of the oscillations beyond
  its modulation of the resonant frequencies. Moreover, by comparing
  the amplitudes of different components ofp -mode multiplets, each of

Title: Perspectives in Helioseismology

1996Sci...272.1281G    Altcode:
  Helioseismology is probing the interior structure and dynamics of
  the sun with ever-increasing precision, providing a well-calibrated
  laboratory in which physical processes can be studied under conditions
  that are unattainable on Earth. Nearly 10 million resonant modes
  of oscillation are observable in the solar atmosphere, and their
  frequencies need to be known with great accuracy in order to gauge the
  sun's interior. The advent of nearly continuous imaged observations
  from the complementary ground-based Global Oscillation Network Group
  (GONG) observatories and the space-based Solar and Heliospheric
  Observatory instruments augurs a new era of discovery. The flow of
  early results from GONG resolves some issues and raises a number of
  theoretical questions whose answers are required for understanding
  how a seemingly ordinary star actually operates.

  Data from the Global Oscillation Network Group (GONG) project and
  other helioseismic experiments provide a test for models of stellar
  interiors and for the thermodynamic and radiative properties, on which
  the models depend, of matter under the extreme conditions found in the
  sun. Current models are in agreement with the helioseismic inferences,
  which suggests, for example, that the disagreement between the predicted
  and observed fluxes of neutrinos from the sun is not caused by errors in
  the models. However, the GONG data reveal subtle errors in the models,
  such as an excess in sound speed just beneath the convection zone. These
  discrepancies indicate effects that have so far not been correctly
  accounted for; for example, it is plausible that the sound-speed
  differences reflect weak mixing in stellar interiors, of potential
  importance to the overall evolution of stars and ultimately to estimates
  of the age of the galaxy based on stellar evolution calculations.

  Global Oscillation Network Group data reveal that the internal
  structure of the sun can be well represented by a calibrated standard
  model. However, immediately beneath the convection zone and at the
  edge of the energy-generating core, the sound-speed variation is
  somewhat smoother in the sun than it is in the model. This could be a
  consequence of chemical inhomogeneity that is too severe in the model,
  perhaps owing to inaccurate modeling of gravitational settling or to
  neglected macroscopic motion that may be present in the sun. Accurate
  knowledge of the sun's structure enables inferences to be made about
  the physics that controls the sun; for example, through the opacity,
  the equation of state, or wave motion. Those inferences can then be
  used elsewhere in astrophysics.

  that the variation of rotation rate with latitude seen at the surface
  carries through much of the convection zone, at the base of which is
  an adjustment layer leading to latitudinally independent rotation at
  greater depths. A distinctive shear layer just below the surface is

  The principal first inferences that have been drawn from the GONG data

  explaining briefly the procedures by which the inferences have been

  in the energy-generating core. There is also evidence for a deviation
  from spherical symmetry, principally near the surface. The possible
  physical implications of our findings will be discussed.

Title: Inferring Spatial Variation of Solar Properties from
    Helioseismic Data
Authors: Gough, D. O.; Sekii, T.; Stark, P. B.
1996ApJ...459..779G    Altcode:
  A common method to infer that solar properties vary with position is
  to compare linear estimates of averages of those properties centered
  at different locations. If some of the confidence intervals for the
  averages do not overlap, one concludes that the property varies. In
  order for this conclusion to be statistically valid, the lengths of
  the intervals must be adjusted to obtain the correct "simultaneous
  coverage probability." We illustrate the notion of simultaneous coverage
  probability using coin tossing as an example. We present four methods
  for adjusting the lengths of confidence intervals for linear estimates,
  and a complementary approach to infer changes based on constructing
  a linear estimator that is directly sensitive to changes. The first
  method for constructing simultaneous confidence intervals is based
  on Bonferroni's inequality, and applies generally to confidence
  intervals for any set of parameters, from dependent or independent
  observations. The second method is based on a 2 measure of fit to the
  data, which allows one to compute s1multaneous confidence intervals for
  any number of linear functionals of the model. The third method uses a
  ^{2 }distribution in the space of estimates, which yields "Scheffe'"
  confidence intervals for the functionals. The fourth method, which
  produces the shortest confidence intervals, uses the infinity-norm
  in the space of estimates to construct "maximum-modulus" confidence
  intervals. We apply the four methods to search for radial changes in
  averages of solar angular velocity, using data from Big Bear Solar
  Observatory (BBSO) averaged for the 4 yr 1986, 1988-1990. Finally,
  we apply the new differencing estimator to the BBSO data, finding
  strong evidence that the average solar angular velocity is lower near
  the poles than near the equator over a range of depths, as is observed
  at the surface as well.

Title: Structural changes to the Sun through the solar cycle
Authors: Balmforth, N. J.; Gough, D. O.; Merryfield, W. J.
1996MNRAS.278..437B    Altcode:
  Measurements of both solar irradiance and 5-min oscillation frequencies
  indicate that the structure of the Sun changes with the solar cycle. We
  report calculations addressing how global changes in the stratification
  of a star are induced by an internal thermal disturbance, and how
  this in turn affects the characteristic pulsation frequencies. The
  results indicate that deeply seated perturbations of the stratification
  invariably lead to relatively large radius changes over the cycle,
  contrary to observation. Moreover, the structural changes resulting
  from such perturbations predict oscillation frequency changes that do
  not reproduce the observed dependence on mode frequency. Therefore a
  magnetic layer at the base of the solar convection zone, for example,
  cannot be directly responsible for the dominant contribution to the
  observed structural changes. Disturbances near the surface of the
  Sun, on the other hand, lead to pulsation frequency changes which do
  reproduce observations. However, the luminosity is then predicted to
  decrease from solar minimum to maximum, by an amount that is about
  45 times the increase observed. Thus purely thermal changes in the
  superficial layers of the Sun also fail to account for the observed
  structural variations.

  The scientific objective of the VIRGO experiment (Variability of solar
  IRradiance and Gravity Oscillations) is to determine the characteristics
  of pressure and internal gravity oscillations by observing irradiance
  and radiance variations, to measure the solar total and spectral
  irradiance and to quantify their variability over periods of days to
  the duration of the mission. With these data helioseismological methods
  can be used to probe the solar interior. Certain characteristics of
  convection and its interaction with magnetic fields, related to, for
  example, activity, will be studied from the results of the irradiance
  monitoring and from the comparison of amplitudes and phases of the
  oscillations as manifest in brightness from VIRGO, in velocity from
  GOLF, and in both velocity and continuum intensity from SOI/MDI. The
  VIRGO experiment contains two different active-cavity radiometers for
  monitoring the solar `constant', two three-channel sunphotometers (SPM)
  for the measurement of the spectral irradiance at 402, 500 and 862 nm,
  and a low-resolution imager (LOI) with 12 pixels, for the measurement
  of the radiance distribution over the solar disk at 500 um. In this
  paper the scientific objectives of VIRGO are presented, the instruments
  and the data acquisition and control system are described in detail,
  and their measured performance is given.

  The GOLF experiment on the SOHO mission aims to study the internal
  structure of the sun by measuring the spectrum of global oscillations in
  the frequency range 10<SUP>−7</SUP> to 10<SUP>−2</SUP> Hz. Bothp
  andg mode oscillations will be investigated, with the emphasis on
  the low order long period waves which penetrate the solar core. The
  instrument employs an extension to space of the proven ground-based
  technique for measuring the mean line-of-sight velocity of the viewed
  solar surface. By avoiding the atmospheric disturbances experienced
  from the ground, and choosing a non-eclipsing orbit, GOLF aims to
  improve the instrumental sensitivity limit by an order of magnitude
  to 1 mm s<SUP>−1</SUP> over 20 days for frequencies higher than
  2.10<SUP>−4</SUP> Hz. A sodium vapour resonance cell is used in
  a longitudinal magnetic field to sample the two wings of the solar
  absorption line. The addition of a small modulating field component
  enables the slope of the wings to be measured. This provides not only
  an internal calibration of the instrument sensitivity, but also offers a
  further possibility to recognise, and correct for, the solar background
  signal produced by the effects of solar magnetically active regions. The
  use of an additional rotating polariser enables measurement of the
  mean solar line-of-sight magnetic field, as a secondary objective.

  to be transient—the minimum-energy state would have all the deeper

  stars<SUP>12</SUP>. We have no solution to the dynamical problem

  The authors have further developed the procedure described by Chang
  and Gough (1995) in GONG94 to analyse low-degree helioseismic time
  series. An idealized model was used to construct artifical data
  representing a superposition of undamped oscillations in a cavity which
  is varying slowly with time in an unknown manner. The procedure involves
  matching a model of the data to the actual data by minimizing a measure
  of misfit. This requires a multidimensional parameter search which,
  if a generic procedure such as the simplex algorithm used for GONG94
  is employed, is computationally expensive. The authors have developed
  an efficient scheme tailored explicitly to the problem in hand, which
  uses a combination of an approximate factorization of the parameter
  space with an alternation of a jumping algorithm between local minima
  and Newton-Ralphson iteration.

  Both weak magnetic fields and latitudinally dependent acoustic
  perturbations remove the degeneracy with respect to the azimuthal
  quantum number m of acoustic modes of an otherwise spherically
  symmetrical solar model. In the case of acoustic perturbations,
  the degeneracy is removed because the range of latitude in which a
  mode propagates depends on m, and therefore modes of like principal
  order n and degree l sample the aspherical (scalar) sound-speed
  distribution differently. In the magnetic case too, the removal of the
  degeneracy is caused by the same geometrical effect, and it is also
  influenced by the anisotropy of the Lorentz forces. Given any set of
  frequency splittings arising from a perturbation to the equilibrium
  configuration, it is possible to invert them to solve for a purely
  acoustic perturbation that might have produced them. In particular,
  if those splittings were actually produced by a magnetic field, there
  is thus an acoustic perturbation that mimics the field. The authors
  use asymptotic analysis to show that the frequency splittings cannot
  be unambiguously attributed to the direct effect of a magnetic field.

  The location of the base of the convection zone coincides with the
  sharp variation of the slope of the relative difference in the quantity
  u = p/ρ between the Sun and a solar model, provided that the zone
  of adiabatic convection is deeper in the model than in the Sun. The
  authors have determined the difference δu/u as a function of radius at
  various latitudes between the Sun and a spherically symmetrical solar
  model by inverting the BBSO data (Libbrecht and Woodard, 1993). The
  results offer evidence that the convection zone may be somewhat deeper
  at the equator than it is at the poles. The variation of the depth,
  however, does not exceed 0.2 R<SUB>sun</SUB>.

  Uncertainties in the structure of the superficial layers of the Sun,
  and additionally in the physics of the oscillations in those layers,
  can lead to substantial uncertainties in the oscillation eigenfunctions
  and the associated eigenfrequencies. However, the functional form of
  the errors that may arise is sufficiently restricted that the errors
  in the eigenfunctions in all but the uncertain outer layers can be
  corrected. Consequently, the influence of those uncertainties can
  essentially be confined to remain within the outer layers, permitting
  subsequent execution of the usual inversion procedures to determine
  conditions deep in the interior. As a byproduct, information about the
  outer convective boundary layer is also obtained. This paper outlines
  the broad principles behind the elimination procedure in the context
  of inversion of free-oscillation frequencies.

  Local-area analysis of five-minute solar oscillations using ring
  diagrams to determine subphotospheric velocity flows is on the brink
  of becoming an important tool in understanding convective zone
  dynamics. One of the main problems up to this point has been the
  large computational burden of fitting the rings. The authors present a
  faster method for carrying out the ring fits using data obtained with
  the High-l Helioseismometer at Kitt Peak. The authors first eliminate
  serious sources of noise, then use a perturbation approach to fit the
  azimuthally averaged spectrum. The parameters so determined are held
  constant while fitting the entire ring diagram.

  It is almost impossible to avoid temporal gaps in solar oscillation
  data from ground-based observations. Even though there exist general
  deconvolution algorithms designed to suppress noise due to gaps,
  techniques that take little or no account of the physics responsible for
  the data must necessarily fail when the duty cycle is low. The authors
  demonstrate a simple but effective method to remove the deleterious
  effects of the gaps by fitting the temporal signal to a model produced
  by the superposition of many modes, rather than using its power
  spectrum. This technique uses the fact that the unknown component to the
  wandering of the amplitude and phases of the constituent oscillators
  arising from the temporal variation of the cavity in which they are
  confined are related to each other in a known way. The technique can
  be used to determine the natural frequencies of modes more precisely,
  and also to reproduce an underlying frequency modulation function.

Authors: Gough, D. O.; Vorontsov, S. V.
1995MNRAS.273..573G    Altcode:
  Partial reflection of acoustic waves by regions of rapid spatial
  variation modulates the solar p-mode frequencies, in a manner that
  is often described in terms of an acoustic phase alpha. At low
  degree, alpha is a function of frequency alone. At higher degrees,
  the inclination of the acoustic ray paths from the normal to the
  reflecting layers becomes significant, and gives rise to a degree
  dependence. With the current accuracy of frequency measurements,
  this phenomenon is significant for all the p modes trapped in the
  convection zone. We describe a technique capable of separating the
  degree-dependent component from the leading term alpha_0(omega). We
  determine the leading-order contribution to the degree dependence
  of alpha from the solar p-mode frequencies reported by Libbrecht,
  Woodard &amp; Kaufman, and compare the results with direct computations
  from a solar model based on the formalism described by Brodsky &amp;
  Vorontsov. The dominant contribution comes from the second helium
  ionization zone, and can be used as a new source of information relevant
  to the helioseismic calibration of the equation of state of the solar
  plasma and to the determination of the solar helium abundance.

Title: Constrained Estimates of Low-Degree Mode Frequencies and the
    Determination of the Interior Structure of the Sun
Authors: Gough, D. O.; Kosovichev, A. G.; Toutain, T.
1995SoPh..157....1G    Altcode:
  Low-degreep-modes penetrate to the solar centre and provide direct
  information about the core. However, the high observational accuracy
  that is required to resolve the details of the structure of the core
  is difficult to achieve because the oscillation power spectrum is
  significantly distorted by stochastic forcing of the oscillations,
  which appears as multiplicative noise. Here, an attempt is reported to
  reduce uncertainties of spectral parameter estimation by incorporating
  constraints imposed by smooth behaviour of some of the parameters
  (e.g., linewidths, background noise, rotational splitting) over a
  group of lines. Instead of estimating these parameters independently
  for each line, we determine them as smooth functions of frequency. It
  is expected that this procedure gives more accurate estimates of the
  average frequencies of any multiplet in the power spectrum, to which
  we have applied no constraints. We give some examples of the procedure
  for whole-disk measurements by the IPHIR space experiment. It is shown
  that the additional constraints do not result in significant changes
  in the frequency estimates, except for one mode whose peak in the power
  spectrum has the lowest signal-to-noise ratio. However, the uncertainty
  in the frequency of that mode does not influence substantially the
  results of the structure inversion in the core. Inversions of the IPHIR
  datasets are compared with corresponding inversions of data from the
  Birmingham Solar Oscillation Network (BISON). The IPHIR data indicate
  a sharp increase towards the centre of the deviation of the squared
  sound speed of the sun from that of a standard solar model, whereas the
  BISON data show a decrease. The difference between the IPHIR and BISON
  inversions is significant, preventing any definite conclusion about
  the deviation of the structure of the solar core from that of the model.

Title: Helioseismology: A Window into the Sun
Authors: Gough, Douglas
1994AAS...185.3901G    Altcode: 1994BAAS...26.1369G
  The sun is vibrating in many modes simultaneously. By listening to
  the tones one can try to recognise its structure, just as one can
  recognise from its sound a particular musical instrument in a symphony
  orchestra. The importance to astrophysics is that it is possible to use
  the information to test the theory of the structure and evolution of
  stars, and to calibrate theoretical models of the sun. Once we know the
  internal state of the sun, we have at our disposal a valuable laboratory
  in which we can carry out physical measurements under conditions that
  cannot be achieved on Earth. Already, such measurements have caused
  a revision in calculations of atomic radiative transitions in dense
  plasmas, which has resolved several long-standing problems in stellar
  astrophysics. The measurements have also put tight constraints on the
  structure of the energy generating core, and have thereby eliminated
  many of the suggestions that have been offered to resolve the solar
  neutrino problem. Moreover, they have provided us for the first time
  direct and somewhat surprising information about the internal rotation,
  which has caused us to rethink our ideas about the evolution of the
  angular momentum and about the generation of the Sun's magnetic field.

  Comet Shoemaker-Levy 9 is about to collide with Jupiter. The impacts
  will be on the far side. However, seismic disturbances induced by
  momentum transfer will propagate through the planet to cause waves
  on the near-side surface, which will begin to concentrate near the
  antipodes about 1.9 h after each impact. Unfortunately, the amplitudes
  of the waves are likely to be insufficient to provide an observable
  diagnostic of the internal structure of the planet. Key words: waves

Title: The Solar f-Mode as an Interfacial Mode at the
    Chromosphere-Corona Transition
Authors: Rosenthal, C. S.; Gough, D. O.
1994ApJ...423..488R    Altcode:
  Observations of the solar f-mode at intermediate and high spherical
  harmonic degree show substantial departures from the dispersion relation
  expected for a pure surface gravity oscillation. We suggest that the
  waves are reflected by the high density gradient in the region of the
  chromosphere-corona transition and are therefore characterized better
  as interfacial modes localized near the transition. An analytical
  calculation, for a simple model in which the transition is treated as
  a discontinuity, shows that such modes have a dispersion relation with
  the correct qualitative features to explain the observations. However,
  quantitative agreement is not possible for reasonable parameter
  values. We next consider a more general atmospheric structure with
  a continuous stratification for which asymptotic frequency estimates
  are obtained. These are compared with direct numerical solutions of
  the differential equations. The frequencies are found to give a much
  closer quantitative agreement with the observations. We suggest that
  f-mode seismology might be used to obtain direct information about
  the average structure of the solar atmosphere and transition region.

Title: The Influence of Low-Degree P-Mode Frequencies on the
    Determination of the Structure of the Solar Interior
Authors: Gough, D. O.; Kosovichev, A. G.
1993MNRAS.264..522G    Altcode:
  Accurate measurements of the frequencies of low-degree acoustic
  oscillations provide valuable information about the structure of the
  solar core. We determine the radial resolution that can be achieved by
  direct inversions of frequency data sets recently obtained by various
  observers to find the hydrostatic parameters density, sound speed and
  a parameter of convective stability. The outcome of those inversions
  indicates that the outer part of the radiative zone of the Sun is
  similar to that of a solar model that takes account of helium settling
  against microscopic diffusion. From the two data sets with lowest
  estimated errors (those by Toutain &amp; Fröhlich and Anguera Gubau
  et al.) there is some evidence for an error in the modelling of the
  energy-generating core, which could be accounted for by local material
  redistribution in the core. Another data set by Elsworth et al.,
  however, is almost compatible with the core of the theoretical model.

Title: Are the 1986--1988 Changes in Solar Free-Oscillation Frequency
    Splitting Significant?
Authors: Gough, Douglas; Stark, Philip B.
1993ApJ...415..376G    Altcode:
  The solar normal-mode splitting coefficients deduced from Big
  Bear Solar Observatory (BBSO) data differ between 1986 and 1988;
  inversions for equatorial rotation are slower at depth and faster near
  the surface in 1988 than in 1986. The significance of the change has
  been disputed. The data sets overlap for five splitting coefficients
  (a(j))super 5<SUB>j</SUB> = 1 associated with 710 multiplets. On
  the assumption that rotation rate varies smoothly with radius, both
  data sets are satisfied by the same rotation model at all colatitudes
  except near 30-40 deg and near 70 deg (and at their southern hemisphere
  reflections 140-150 deg and 110 deg). The evidence for equatorial
  change is weak. Nonparametric tests show a significant offset in the
  magnitudes of a(1), a(2), and a(4), and of linear combinations sensitive
  to rotation at colatitudes of 60-80 deg (and 120 deg). Nonparametric
  tests show significant radial trends in the changes to a(2), a(4),
  and (less significantly) a(5). There is strong anticorrelation between
  a(2) and a(4), a(1) and a(3), and a(3) and a(5), suggesting that the
  estimates are not independent. Individual coefficients a(j) show more
  evidence for change than do 'physical' linear combinations, adding
  weight to this hypothesis. Some of the changes in splitting might be
  related to solar activity, which changed most near colatitude 70 deg
  from 1986 to 1988.

1992GeoRL..19.2373J    Altcode:
  As part of Lithoprobe's Southern Cordilleran transect investigations,
  magnetotelluric (MT) soundings were made at 160 sites providing
  unprecedented coverage from the Rockies to the west coast. Striking
  lateral variation, which spatially correlates with the morphogeological
  belt boundaries, is apparent at periods sensing the lower crust
  (≈10 s). For the Rockies, MT phases are around 35°, indicative
  of a moderately resistive (100's - 1000's Ω·m) North American
  Basement. Foreland belt phases are transitional and increase from
  60° in the east to 70° in the west. Omineca and Coast belt phases
  are high (75°), implying a conductive (10-30 Ω·m) lower crust,
  whereas Intermontane belt phases are more than 10° lower (equivalent
  to ≈150 Ω·m). The regional variation in conductivity correlates to
  first order with surface heat flow changes along the profile and is also
  correlative with coincident seismic reflection sections in some aspects.

Title: Sources of uncertainty in direct seismological measurements
    of the solar helium abundance
Authors: Kosovichev, A. G.; Christensen-Dalsgaard, J.; Daeppen, W.;
   Dziembowski, W. A.; Gough, D. O.; Thompson, M. J.
1992MNRAS.259..536K    Altcode:
  The methods by which Dappen et al. (1988, 1990, 1991) and Dziembowski
  et al. (1990, 1991, 1992) recently obtained discrepant estimates of
  the helium abundance in the solar convection zone are compared. The
  aim of the investigation reported in this paper is to identify the
  main source of the discrepancy. Using as proxy data eigenfrequencies
  of a set of modes of a theoretical solar model, computed with the
  same physics as were the frequencies of a reference model with which
  these data are compared, the two methods yield similar results. Thus
  we ascertain that the principal source of the discrepancy is not in
  the inversions themselves, which yield essentially a measure of the
  variation of the adiabatic exponent gamma of the material in the He II
  ionization zone. Instead it is in the approximations adopted in the
  treatment of heavy elements in the equation of state used to relate
  the variation of gamma to chemical composition. We obtain acceptably
  consistent results when inverting solar data by two methods using the
  same equation of state. We attempt to identify the likely residual
  sources of uncertainty.

Title: On the rate of destruction of lithium in late-type
    main-sequence stars
Authors: Christensen-Dalsgaard, J.; Gough, D. O.; Thompson, M. J.
1992A&A...264..518C    Altcode:
  It it shown that the rate of destruction of lithium by nuclear reactions
  in the outer mixed layers of late-type main-sequence stars depends on
  both the depth of the region where mixing occurs and the stratification
  within it. The mixed region includes and probably extends beneath the
  base of the convection zone. As the star evolves on the main sequence,
  the properties of the convection zone vary in a simple manner. If
  the mixed layer behaves similarly, then the mean destruction rate
  can easily be related to the present local value evaluated at the
  base of the mixed layer. In the case of the sun, it is found that if
  mixing is rapid compared with the nuclear destruction rate, then the
  mean destruction rate is approximately equal to one-half the present
  local value.

Title: Electromagnetic exploration for fluids in the Earth's crust
Authors: Gough, D. Ian
1992ESRv...32....3G    Altcode:
  Electromagnetic geophysical techniques yield information on the spatial
  distribution of electrical conductivity, a parameter sensitive to
  fluids in the rocks. The paper describes electromagnetic techniques of
  use through the Earth's crust, including magnetovariation (MV) arrays,
  magnetotelluric (MT) sounding and DC resistivity sounding. Field studies
  using these techniques lead to a discussion of various causes of high
  crustal conductivity, including aqueous fluids, silicate partial melt
  and films of graphite or magnetite on grain surfaces. Water in the
  crust is proposed as the preferred cause of high conductivity in the
  juvenile crust of tectonically active regions, in particular where
  the anomalous conductivity is correlated with high heat flow and other
  geophysical and geological parameters.

Title: Helium inhomogeneities in main-sequence magnetic stars.
Authors: Vauclair, S.; Dolez, N.; Gough, D. O.
1991A&A...252..618V    Altcode:
  Helium abundance variations are computed in models of main-sequence
  magnetic stars with masses in the range 1.6-5 solar mass (Teff =
  8,000-19,000 K). To represent a predominantly dipolar magnetic field,
  regions in the stars are schematically designated either polar, with
  vertical magnetic fields, or equatorial, with horizontal fields. A
  stellar wind is supposed to exist at the magnetic poles. The mass-loss
  rate is varied as a free parameter in the computations. Under these
  conditions, helium is underabundant at the magnetic equators, while it
  can accumulate at the poles in the region of the first ionization of
  helium. The accumulation occurs if the mass-loss rate is of the order
  of that caused by the solar wind. The helium peak is visible in the
  atmospheres of the hottest stars, which can account for the observed
  He-rich stars. It lies below the photosphere and should not be visible
  in the coolest stars; but it can help to excite the pulsations of
  rapidly oscillating Ap stars by the Kappa mechanism.

Title: The Depth of the Solar Convection Zone
Authors: Christensen-Dalsgaard, J.; Gough, D. O.; Thompson, M. J.
1991ApJ...378..413C    Altcode:
  The transition of the temperature gradient between being subadiabatic
  and adiabatic at the base of the solar convection zone gives rise to
  a clear signature in the sound speed. Helioseismic measurements of the
  sound speed therefore permit a determination of the location of the base
  of the convection zone. Two techniques were tested by applying them
  to artifical data, obtained by adding simulated noise to frequencies
  computed from two different solar models. The determinations appear to
  be relatively insensitive to uncertainties of the physics of the solar
  interior. From an analysis of observed frequencies of solar oscillation
  it is concluded that the depth of the solar convection zone is (0.287 +
  or - 0.003) solar radii.

  Numerical simulations of the effects of atmospheric seeing distortions
  on observations of solar oscillations of intermediate and high degree
  are performed. The simulations involve a representation of about 100
  p-modes of oscillation, with degrees l = 50-150 (intermediate-degree)
  and 150-450 (high-degree), formed from the complement of a sexated mode
  set. These modes are superposed on a steady large-scale convective
  background, and projected onto the plane of the sky. Image motion is
  modeled by displacement maps generated from two-dimensional turbulence
  power spectra; the maps are scaled so that the rms amplitude of the
  displacements has values of 2-5 arcsec. The distorted velocity field is
  then Fourier analyzed to produce simulated (l, nu) power diagrams, where
  nu is the temporal cyclic frequency. The results show that power in the
  mode ridges is diminished as atmospheric seeing worsens, particularly
  at high degrees. Redistribution of power produces an apparent decrease
  in the frequencies of the oscillations as measured by the centroids
  of the ridges in the power spectra. It is found that time-averaging
  the observations is quite effective in reducing the noise.

Title: Crustal structures from MT soundings in the Canadian Cordillera
Authors: Majorowicz, J. A.; Gough, D. Ian
1991E&PSL.102..444M    Altcode:
  Magnetotelluric soundings have been made across the Intermontane and
  Omineca tectonic belts of the Canadian Cordillera between latitudes 51.5
  and 53.5°N. The frequency range, 0.016 to 130 Hz, gives penetration
  into the middle crust. In this part of the Cordillera the upper crust
  has very low resistivities, ranging from 3 to 300 ohm m, compared with
  continental shields and stable platforms. The most resistive rocks
  (100-300 ohm m) rise to the surface as the Coast Plutonic Complex is
  approached, and we identify them with confidence as granodiorites and
  similar plutonic rocks (hereafter "plutonics"). Phase pseudosections
  and resistivity-depth sections are used to infer that these plutonics
  continue northeastward from the Coast Plutonic Complex, across more
  than half of the width of the Intermontane Belt, with a sharp edge well
  located in the phase pseudosections. The Miocene basalts have extremely
  low resistivities (3-30 ohm m) and form a sheet 0-2 km thick covering
  the plutonics. The very low resistivities in all rocks are probably
  caused by saline hot water in connected spaces, with low fracture
  density giving relatively high resistivities in the plutonic rocks,
  and much greater fracture densities giving extremely low resistivities
  in the volcanics. This is consistent with the lower mechanical strength
  of basalt as against granodiorite; the volcanics may have accommodated
  most of the post-Miocene extension of the upper crust. Off the edge of
  the plutonic rocks beneath the basalts, very low resistivities extend
  at least into the middle crust; this deep extension of the highly
  conductive rock may mark the feeder channel of the Miocene basalt to the
  surface. Three resistivity-depth sections show a fall of resistivity
  with depth, to values of 10 ohm m or even less, at a depth of only 8
  km. Heat flow is high in the region, and the temperature at 8 km may
  be as high as 350°C. The increase in conductivity may be due in part
  to the temperature effect on NaCl solutions, and in part to release
  of water from hydrated minerals. All crustal features disclosed in
  this work support the hypothesis advanced earlier, that the interior
  Canadian Cordillera lie above an elongated upflow in the mantle inland
  from the currently active subduction.

Title: Nonlinear Behavior of Solar Gravity Modes Driven by 3He in
    the Core. II. Numerical Simulations
Authors: Merryfield, William J.; Toomre, Juri; Gough, Douglas
1991ApJ...367..658M    Altcode:
  The nonlinear behavior of gravity-mode oscillations driven by
  He-3-destroying reactions in the solar core has been examined
  by numerically integrating equations describing a very simplified
  model. The results of a previous bifurcation analysis, which suggest
  that such oscillations are unlikely to attain amplitudes sufficient
  to trigger core convection, are verified. These results are extended
  to models whose nuclear reaction rates and thermal stratification
  represent the core somewhat more accurately. Nonlinear processes give
  rise to a preference for the oscillations to develop as standing waves
  rather than traveling waves, thus breaking the degeneracy between
  these two types of motion which exists in linearized theory. Study
  of the large-amplitude behavior of the oscillations is hindered by a
  tendency for the model to become thermally unstable.

Title: On the Analysis of Physical Wave Trains
Authors: Gough, D. O.; Merryfield, W. J.; Toomre, J.
1991LNP...388..265G    Altcode: 1991ctsm.conf..265G
  When a wave train whose constituent frequencies and wave numbers are
  unresolved by observation propagates through an inhomogeneous medium,
  beating between the components can contaminate deductions one might
  naively draw about the inhomogeneous background. This is a severe
  problem to anyone confronted with analysing helioseismic data with
  a view to determining the structure of giant convective cells. We
  propose a procedure for analysing wave trains, based on approximating
  a packet as a single representative pure wave. We present some
  preliminary results of analysing artificial data. For simplicity, we
  have deliberately excluded some of the effects of wave interference,
  which must be faced by any means of analysis. Therefore we do not
  claim to have found a complete procedure for analysing real data.

Title: Effluent Stellar Pulsation
Authors: Balmforth, N. J.; Gough, D. O.
1990ApJ...362..256B    Altcode:
  Near-discontinuities in the density of a star, such as that encountered
  in the transition between a chromosphere and a corona, reflect acoustic
  waves and thereby partially contain them within the star. These
  reflections help to establish a resonant acoustic cavity with discrete
  characteristic frequencies, even for modes with frequencies above the
  acoustic cutoff frequency. Reflection is not complete, however, and
  energy propagates away from the star, contributing to the decay of the
  mode. Nevertheless, for coronae with temperatures of order 10 to the
  6th K, the contribution that such decay is likely to make to the line
  width in a power spectrum of the oscillations is substantially less
  than the frequency separation between modes of adjacent order and like
  degree. Therefore, in that case, characteristic acoustic frequencies
  exist. A physical discussion of the phenomena is presented, and is
  illustrated by a simple analytical model. The results are compared
  with numerical stability calculations of high-order radial modes of
  a model of the sun.

Title: Mixing-Length Theory and the Excitation of Solar Acoustic

Authors: Balmforth, N. J.; Gough, D. O.
1990SoPh..128..161B    Altcode: 1990IAUCo.121P.161B
  The stability of radial solar acoustic oscillations is studied
  using a time-dependent formulation of mixing-length theory. Though
  the radiation field is treated somewhat simplistically with the
  Eddington approximation, and we appreciate that any coupling of the
  pulsation to the radiation field is important, for the lower frequency
  radial modes that have been computed this should not produce too
  serious an error. Instead, we have concentrated upon treating the
  coupling with convection as accurately as is currently possible with
  generalized mixing-length theory in order to learn something about
  its pertinence. Our principal conclusion is that, according to this
  theory, solar radial acoustic oscillations are expected to be stable
  and generated by turbulence. Moreover, the theory predicts changes in
  mode frequency that may, in part, explain the discrepancy between solar
  observations and the adiabatic pulsation frequencies of theoretical
  models. We also compute the amplitudes of the modes using a theory
  of stochastic excitation. These are in good agreement with observed
  power spectra.

Title: Sensitivity of Solar Eigenfrequencies to the Age of the Sun
Authors: Gough, D. O.; Novotny, E.
1990SoPh..128..143G    Altcode: 1990IAUCo.121P.143G
  The increasing central concentration of the Sun with age modifies
  the acoustic eigenfrequencies. In particular, the frequency separation
  d<SUB>l</SUB>=3(2l+3)<SUP>−1</SUP>«v<SUB>n,l</SUB>−v<SUB>n−1,l+2</SUB>»
  for modes with l + 1/2 ≪ n decreases as nuclear reactions augment
  the molecular-weight gradient in the energy-generating core. If,
  for example, the Sun were older than is generally believed, one
  might therefore expect d<SUB>l</SUB> to be smaller than current
  theoretical predictions. On the other hand, to ensure that the
  luminosity is consistent with observations, the presumed initial
  hydrogen abundance would need to be enhanced, thereby reducing the
  resultant molecular-weight gradient. Thus there is some degree of
  cancellation of the two major factors that determine d<SUB>l</SUB>.

Title: Nonlinear Behavior of Solar Gravity Modes Driven by 3He in
    the Core. I. Bifurcation Analysis
Authors: Merryfield, William J.; Toomre, Juri; Gough, Douglas
1990ApJ...353..678M    Altcode:
  The nonlinear development of solar gravity modes driven by He-3 burning
  in the solar core is investigated by means of an idealized dynamical
  model. Possible outcomes that have been suggested in the literature
  include the triggering of subcritical direct convection, leading to
  core mixing, and the saturation of the excitation processes, leading
  to sustained finite-amplitude oscillations. The present simple model
  suggests that the latter is the more likely. The limiting amplitude
  of the oscillations is estimated, ignoring possible resonances with
  other gravity modes, to be of order 10 km/s at the solar surface. Such
  oscillations would be easily observable. That large-amplitude gravity
  modes have not been observed suggests either that these modes are not
  unstable in the present era or that they are limited to much smaller
  amplitudes by resonant coupling.

  configurations are investigated using both methods of calculation. The
  asymptotic formulas provide a good estimate for the frequency splitting
  of five-minute modes when the field and the rotation vary sufficiently
  smoothly. On the other hand, a localized magnetic field, for example at
  the base of the convection zone, produces a characteristic oscillatory
  perturbation to the eigenfrequencies.

  Helioseismic inference can be made within a wide spectrum of
  sophistication, from arguments based on the results of very simple
  and highly idealized model problems which depend on specific limited
  aspects of the data to a variety of formal numerical inversions of
  all the data that are available. The idealized problems are relatively
  simple to analyze, and provide a tool for making immediate qualitative
  and sometimes even quantitative estimates of certain aspects of
  the structure of the sun. If well chosen, they are likely to add
  substantially to our understanding of the situation; indeed, they can
  be an extremely useful guide to designing the more formal techniques
  which, though numerically more precise, are frequently also more
  opaque. Therefore it is often prudent to utilize methods throughout
  the entire spectrum. In this lecture a selection of the techniques
  for making immediate inferences will be discussed, and illustrated
  with examples of topical interest.

Title: The Internal Structure of Late Type Main-Sequence Stars
Authors: Gough, D. O.
1990arpf.symp...13G    Altcode: 1990arpf.conf...13G
  Homology scaling laws for main-sequence stars are derived, and used to
  estimate how late-type stars evolve during their core hydrogen-burning
  phase. Though not exactly representative of realistic stellar models,
  the scaling laws do provide a useful method of making estimates
  of small perturbations either to the initial conditions or to the
  physics used in the so-called standard theory of stellar evolution. In
  particular, evolution with varying gravitational constant and varying
  mass are considered explicitly. The scaling laws are used to determine
  how gross observable parameters such as luminosity neutrino flux or
  acoustic oscillation frequencies depend on the mass, composition and
  age of the star. By inverting the relations it is shown that with the
  precision of the best measurements of luminosity, effective temperature
  and the heavy-element to hydrogen abundance ratio, supplemented with
  a knowledge of the principle parameters characterizing the high-order
  acoustic oscillation spectrum, theoretical models could be calibrated to
  determine mass and age to within about 20 percent. No useful information
  about the helium abundance can be obtained in this way.

  from the observations. This opens up the prospect of using observations
  of solar oscillations to test theories of time-dependent convection. The

  and obtain a dispersion relation valid for small filling factors. The
  properties of this dispersion relation are studied for scattering
  from density inhomogeneities in a two-layer model atmosphere. It is
  found that increased strafication tends to decrease the frequency
  perturbation induced by a population of cylindrical inhomogeneities.

Title: Determination of the solar internal sound speed by means of

Authors: Christensen-Dalsgaard, J.; Gough, Douglas O.; Thompson, M. J.
1988ESASP.286..493C    Altcode: 1988ssls.rept..493C
  The authors present a simple asymptotic inversion method for
  obtaining an estimate of the difference in internal sound speed from
  differences between five-minute p-mode oscillation frequencies. Thus,
  given a known model and a set of frequencies of a model of unknown
  structure, or of the Sun, the internal sound speed of the latter can be
  estimated. Numerical experiments with error-free frequencies indicate
  that this method can provide an estimate of the sound speed, from the
  energy-generating core to the helium ionization zone, with smaller
  fractional error than any previously published results. The authors
  have applied the method to real solar data, and find that the solar
  sound speed is indeed broadly as determined by an earlier investigation
  at those depths for which the earlier inversion should be reliable.

Authors: Gough, Douglas O.; Kosovichev, A. G.
1988ESASP.286..195G    Altcode: 1988ssls.rept..195G
  The p-mode frequencies reported by Henning and Scherred (1986),
  showing anomalous behavior at degree 5 and frequencies below 2
  mHz were investigated. No plausible solar model is consistent with
  them. A density inversion including the low-degree 5 min data of
  Jimenez et al. (1988) implies that the density of the solar core
  is 10 percent greater than it is in the standard solar model 1 of
  Christensen-Dalsgaard (1982). Although that result is in keeping with
  previous suggestions either that the Sun has a greater evolutionary
  age than is usually supposed or that there is a cloud of weakly
  interacting massive particles in the solar core and its environs,
  the behavior of the sound speed in the core is not consistent with
  either hypothesis. Both the inferred sound-speed variation, and a
  secondary inversion for hydrogen abundance (relying on an assumption of
  thermal balance), provide evidence for material redistribution in the
  energy-generating core. A sound-speed inversion for the entire radiative
  interior, using also frequencies of low and intermediate degree compiled
  by Duvall et al. (1988), confirms the earlier finding that the sound
  speed in the Sun exceeds that of a standard solar model by up to 1
  percent in a region extending 30 percent of the solar radius and centred
  at r = 0.4R. That is consistent with, though does not necessarily
  imply, that the opacity in the outer layers of the radiative interior
  at temperatures of up to 4 million K is underestimated by 20 percent.

Title: Towards an independent calibration of the mixing-length theory.
Authors: Tooth, P. D.; Gough, Douglas O.
1988ESASP.286..463T    Altcode: 1988ssls.rept..463T
  The standard astrophysical mixing-length theory of turbulent convection,
  and modifications thereof, are calibrated with laboratory experimental
  data over a range of Rayleigh numbers and Prandtl numbers. Both
  local and nonlocal theories are considered, and an analysis made of
  the effects on the calibration of different degrees of small-scale
  turbulence, eddy decay-probability and presumed nonlocalization (both
  symmetrical and asymmetrical). It is found that while the local theory
  does adequately describe some of the features of laboratory convection
  (though it would predict a mixing-length parameter of at least 2.4),
  its qualitative agreement is poor. Nonlocal theories with this parameter
  around 1.8 - 2.0 give a much better agreement with experiment over
  the whole range of experimental Rayleigh and Prandtl numbers. The
  authors conclude that both local and nonlocal mixing-length theories

Title: Nonlinear studies of solar gravity modes driven by nuclear

1988ESASP.286...21M    Altcode: 1988ssls.rept...21M
  The finite-amplitude behavior of gravity-mode oscillations driven
  within the deep interior of the sun has been studied by means of a
  simple idealized model. Such g modes may be self-excited by their
  ability to extract energy from the nuclear burning of <SUP>3</SUP>He
  in the core. Both a nonlinear bifurcation analysis and numerical
  simulations of the behavior of this instability suggest that the
  growth of <SUP>3</SUP>He-driven oscillations is likely be limited to
  an amplitude which is insufficient to induce convective instability
  in the core, a process which has been proposed as a mechanism for core
  mixing. The numerical results also indicate that if the oscillations are
  linarly unstable then the degeneracy in linear theory between standing
  and travelling g modes is broken by nonlinear effects. The oscillations
  thus develop into a left- or right-travelling wave rather than a
  standing wave or other superposition of horizontally propagating waves.

Title: On radiative and convective influences on stellar pulsational
    stability.
Authors: Balmforth, N. J.; Gough, Douglas O.
1988ESASP.286...47B    Altcode: 1988ssls.rept...47B
  Recent theoretical investigations have shown that there is a delicate
  balance between instability and stability mechanisms in certain
  stars when physical influences, such as convection and radiative
  transfer, are considered in a finer detail than in a typical pulsation
  computation. Baker and Gough (1979) and Xiong (1980) demonstrated the
  susceptibility of pulsations to stabilization towards the red edge of
  the RR Lyrae and Cepheid instability strips by a convection-pulsation
  coupling. Moreover, Christensen-Dalsgaard and Frandsen (1983) have
  illustrated the stabilizing effect of radiative transfer when it is
  included consistently in the calculation of a solar model. Here the
  authors extend the calculations of Baker and Gough to Cepheids and
  the sun.

  Frequency differences between high-order p-modes of two stellar models,

Title: On taking observers seriously.

  The lastest measurements of the even component of degeneracy
  splitting of five-minute oscillations announced at this symposium add
  substantially to the evidence for temporal variations in the solar
  acoustic asphericity that are correlated with the solar cycle. The
  asphericity appears to extend from the photosphere, through the
  convection zone, into the radiative interior. It may exist even in
  the core of the sun, but there is yet no sound direct evidence for
  that. The next observations will be carried out well into the new cycle,
  and are therefore likely to clarify the situation significantly.

Title: Further progress on the helium abundance determination.
Authors: Daeppen, W.; Gough, Douglas O.; Thompson, M. J.
1988ESASP.286..505D    Altcode: 1988ssls.rept..505D
  The authors report on further progress in attempting to determine the
  helium abundance in the solar convection zone by analysing the position
  and shape of the "helium hump" in a thermodynamic quantity Θ which
  can be inferred from the sound speed in the vicinity of the He II
  ionization zone. At present they are estimating the sound speed from
  frequencies of high-degree oscillations by a differential asymptotic
  technique. The helium abundance Y is then determined by fitting the hump
  inferred to one obtained by interpolation in a grid of theoretical model
  envelopes. They have tested the procedure by carrying out a double-blind
  experiment on artificial data, and have found that accurate knowledge
  of the equation of state is essential for a useful determination. The
  authors have also carried out the procedure on real solar data, but
  they judge that the frequencies are at present too poorly determined
  to enable us to obtain a reliable estimate of Y in the sun.

Authors: Haber, D. A.; Toomre, J.; Hill, Frank; Gough, Douglas O.
1988ESASP.286..301H    Altcode: 1988ssls.rept..301H
  Doppler velocity images of the full Sun were obtained both during and
  after a major white-light flare. These velocities were interpolated onto
  a cylindrical coordinate system centered on the flare and decomposed
  into radially propagating waves defined by Hankel functions. For
  a similar analysis of quiet Sun regions the authors find fairly
  comparable power in incoming and outgoing waves irrespective of the
  presence of the flare. However, for the flaring region, there is 14%
  greater power in incoming as opposed to outgoing waves when there
  is no flare, but 5% greater power in outgoing than in incoming waves
  during the flare. This result suggests that the flare may have excited
  outgoing waves which counteracted the more usual absorption of incoming
  acoustic waves by sunspots.

  Doppler Imager (MDI) instrument, a facility providing data reduction
  and analysis capability, and a coordinated set of investigations
  designed to address a set of science objectives. The MDI is designed
  to take advantage of the anticipated SOHO telemetry by organizing
  the observations into four observation programs: structure (at all
  times), dynamics (two months per year), campaign (eight hours per day,
  ten months per year), and magnetic fields (few minutes per day). The
  MDI will measure line-of-sight velocity by Doppler shift, transverse
  velocity by local correlation tracking, line and continuum intensity,
  and line-of-sight magnetic fields with both 4 and 1.4 arc-second
  resolution (2 and 0.7 arc-sec pixels respectively).

1988IAUS..123..291D    Altcode:
  Suppression of convection near the poles of magnetic A stars and
  inhibition of winds near the equator influence chemical composition
  gradients resulting from diffusion, leading to appreciable horizontal
  variation in the equilibrium configurations of the stars. The authors
  conjecture that it is this variation which is responsible for the
  apparent alignment of non-radial pulsations with the magnetic axes of
  the stars, and also for a possible previous misidentification of the
  modes. It is suggested that nonadiabatic excitation can be sufficient
  to overcome energy leakage into the atmosphere.

  The discrepancy between theoretical eigenfrequencies of standard solar

1986Natur.321..226F    Altcode:
  If the Sun were to contain even a minute mass fraction of
  weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs), there could be
  a significant influence on its central thermal structure. In
  particular, a relative concentration as small as ~10<SUP>-11</SUP>
  by number may lower the central temperature sufficiently to bring
  the predicted electron neutrino detection rate into agreement with
  observation<SUP>1-6</SUP>. Helioseismology<SUP>7,8</SUP> provides
  a means for an independent test of the validity of this and other
  proposed resolutions of the solar neutrino problem. Theoretically,
  it is the low-degree g modes that are most sensitive to conditions in
  the core, the only region where substantial deviations from so-called
  standard solar models occur. Indeed, solar models with WIMPs have a
  g-mode period spacing that is markedly different from that of other
  solar models. Therefore g-mode observations hold the promise of a
  sensitive test, although unfortunately their current interpretation
  is fraught with difficulties. The best test currently available
  involves instead the frequency separation of low-degree p modes with
  like (n+½l) (where n and l are respectively the order and degree of
  the mode). Standard solar models produce p-mode separations somewhat
  larger than those observed. Conventional attempts to resolve the solar
  neutrino problem<SUP>9,10</SUP> make the situation worse; in some cases,
  grossly so. We show that, in contrast, a relevant WIMP model predicts
  p-mode separations that are reduced by ~10% this is consistent with
  the observations.

1985SoPh..100...65G    Altcode:
  Methods by which the observed frequencies of solar oscillations can be,
  and in some cases have been used to infer the internal structure of the
  Sun are discussed. Attention is confined to so-called inverse methods
  that identify and extract the information that is actually contained in
  the data. Because only a finite quantity of data can ever be acquired,
  the functions describing the interior stratification of the Sun can
  never be established completely without the acceptance of certain
  assumptions. Nevertheless, the assumptions that are required are simple
  to understand, and the results do not depend on the complicated and
  uncertain theory of stellar evolution which has traditionally been used
  to construct solar models. First results of the inversions have given
  us an estimate of the sound speed and the angular velocity throughout
  much of the solar interior. These estimates have already stimulated
  speculation which hopefully will encourage further theoretical and
  observational research that will improve our understanding of the Sun.

  The authors investigate the degree to which various sets of solar
  oscillations can resolve the solar internal rotation. Genuine
  observations were simulated by the following procedure: First an
  artificial angular velocity was invented by one of the authors,
  and from it the rotational splitting of a set of normal modes
  was calculated; to that was added some random noise. The result was
  treated as artificial data by the other author, acting as an observer,
  who attempted to recover the rotation law by using the Backus-Gilbert
  optimal averaging procedure. The observer knew neither the original
  rotation law nor the amount of noise that had been added. Finally his
  conclusion was compared with the actual artificial angular velocity.

1984sses.nasa...49G    Altcode: 1984sss..conf...49G
  Helioseismological inversion, as with the inversion of any other data,
  is divided into three phases. The first is the solution of the so-called
  forward problem: namely, the calculation of the eigenfrequencies of a
  theoretical equilibrium state. The second is an attempt to understand
  the results, either empirically by determining how those frequencies
  vary as chosen parameters defining the equilibrium model are varied, or
  analytically from asymptotic expansions in limiting cases of high order
  or degree. The third phase is to pose and solve an inverse problem,
  which seeks to find a plausible equilibrium model of the Sun whose
  eigenfrequencies are consistent with observation. The three phases
  are briefly discussed in this review, and the third, which is not
  yet widely used in helioseismology, is illustrated with some selected
  inversions of artificial solar data.

  The horizontal velocity immediately below the photosphere can be

  The authors present a preliminary comparison of the observed frequencies
  of 5-min modes reported by Duvall &amp; Harvey in these proceedings with
  theoretical frequencies for a traditional solar model. The differences
  between observations and theory can be understood qualitatively in
  terms of two separate sources of error in the frequency calculation,
  one near the solar surface and the other at the base of the convection
  zone. There is no indication of errors in the deep interior of the

Title: On the Rotation of the Sun

  An asymptotic method is developed to estimate the rotational splitting
  of sectoral five-minute solar oscillations. Integral formulae are
  obtained which can be inverted to yield the variation with depth of
  the Sun's angular velocity near the equatorial plane. The result is a
  functional of smoothed data, and does not rely on a detailed theoretical
  model of the Sun. The method has been tested with artificial data
  (computed from a theoretical solar model) of a kind similar to some real
  solar data obtained recently by Duvall &amp; Harvey (Nature, Lond. 310,
  19 (1984)). The results are encouraging, for they reproduce at least
  the broadest feature of the somewhat arbitrary angular velocity with
  which the theoretical model was endowed. When applied to the real
  data, the method yields a result similar to that derived by Duvall et
  al. (Nature, Lond. 310, 22 (1984)) by another procedure.

  In the development of plate dynamics there are two fundamental

  upcurrents in the mantle and in that sense become active margins? The
  combination of stress orientations in the crust of North America with

  upflow which lay beneath the East Pacific Rise in Tertiary times and
  which now lies beneath the western United States.

  The frequency difference between prograde and retrograde sectoral

  the solar interior, assuming no latitudinal dependence. Much of the

Title: On the identification of normal modes of oscillation from
    observations of the solar periphery
Authors: Gough, D. O.; Latour, J.
1984AExpr...1....9G    Altcode:
  The decomposition of solar oscillations into their constituent
  normal modes requires a knowledge of both the spatial and temporal
  variation of the perturbation to the sun's surface. The task can
  be especially difficult when only limited spatial information is
  available. Observations of the limb-darkening function, for example, are
  probably sensitive to too large a number of modes to permit most of the
  modes to be identified in a power spectrum of measurements at only a few
  points on the limb, unless the results are combined with other data. In
  this paper a procedure is considered by which the contributions from
  quite small groups of modes to spatially well resolved data obtained
  at any instant can be extracted from the remaining modes. Combining
  these results with frequency information then permits the modes to
  be identified, at least if their frequencies are low enough to ensure
  that modes of high degree do not contribute substantially to the signal.

Title: Attempt to measure the solar subsurface velocity
Authors: Hill, F.; Gough, D.; Toomre, J.
1984MmSAI..55..153H    Altcode:
  Five-minute oscillation modes are advected by horizontal velocities
  below the solar surface, and thus can be used as probes of rotation
  and large-scale convective flows. Results of inverse theory applied
  to observations of high-degree modes carried out on six separate days
  reveal variations in horizontal velocities with depth from day to day
  that may be the result of giant convection cells, through noise in
  the data makes this interpretation somewhat tentative.

Title: Influence of rotation and magnetic fields on stellar

Authors: Gough, D. O.; Taylor, P. P.
1984MmSAI..55..215G    Altcode:
  A formalism to calculate rotational and magnetic splitting of otherwise
  degenerate high-order oscillation p modes of low degree is outlined. For
  the purposes of illustration, attention is restricted to axisymmetric
  toroidal magnetic fields, with axes of symmetry that are permitted to
  be different from the rotation axis. It is found that advection is
  the most important contributor to rotational splitting; in general,
  magnetic perturbations add to the complexity of the frequency spectrum
  when the oscillations are viewed from an inertial frame. The effect
  of a field whose axis lies close to the sun's equatorial plane is
  briefly considered. It is found that such a field is not able to split
  five-minute dipole modes into observable triplets.

Title: Geminga and the 160-min solar oscillation
Authors: Fabian, A. C.; Gough, D. O.
1984Natur.308..160F    Altcode:
  The idea that solar oscillations might have been stimulated by
  gravitational radiation from a nearby binary system<SUP>1,2</SUP> has
  recently been explored by Delache and co-workers<SUP>3,4</SUP>. They
  have announced that the γ-ray source CG195+4, known as Geminga, varies
  in intensity with a period of 159.96min (ref. 3), and therefore has a
  frequency just (1 yr)<SUP>-1</SUP> greater than the 160.01-min solar
  oscillation<SUP>5-7</SUP>. From this coincidence they have inferred a
  gravitational connection between the two oscillations. We show here
  that if the generally accepted ideas of gravitational radiation are
  correct, the 160-min solar oscillation could not have been driven to
  its observed amplitude by any binary system of stellar mass. Only if
  there were a sustained resonance between the incident radiation and a
  solar mode of oscillation could there be any chance of an observable
  response. However, gravitational radiation causes the binary system
  to spin up, prohibiting it from remaining in resonance with a 160-min
  mode for long enough to have a perceptible effect It is just possible
  that 5-min oscillations in the Sun could be excited to an observable
  amplitude by a binary system having an orbital period of ~10 min at
  1,000 AU.

  Recent extensive measurements of frequencies of free oscillation of the

  speed and angular velocity throughout the Sun. The results hint that
  the answers to some tantalizing questions concerning the Sun's interior
  structure and its history are almost within grasp. Optimists like
  myself believe that in a few years a worldwide network of ground-based
  observing stations will give us important clues. However, it may be

Title: An upper bound to the periods of radial pulsation of the sun
Authors: Christensen-Dalsgaard, J.; Cooper, A. J.; Gough, D. O.
1983MNRAS.203..165C    Altcode:
  The nature of the 160 min oscillation of the sun is investigated. It
  is shown that the periods of linear adiabatic radial pulsation of any
  stably stratified star with given mass M and radius R, and constant
  adiabatic exponent gamma, are bounded above by the period of the
  fundamental radial mode of the adiabatically stratified model. If M and
  R have the solar values, it is determined that the greatest period is
  101.5 min. While this analysis does not generalize to the case when
  gamma is permitted to vary in a realistic way, it is argued that in
  that case the period of the adiabatically stratified model is likely
  to be a good estimate of the upper bound. This period is shown to be
  weakly dependent on composition, with its greatest value being 101.9
  min when the heavy-element abundance is taken to be 2%.

Title: Solar atmospheric temperature inhomogeneities induce a 13-day
    oscillation in full-disk Doppler measurements
Authors: Edmunds, M. G.; Gough, D. O.
1983Natur.302..810E    Altcode:
  Claverie et al.<SUP>1</SUP> have reported a 13-day oscillation in
  full-disk solar spectrum-line shifts, which they claim to be evidence
  for rapid rotation of the Sun's core. We point out here that the passage
  of active regions across the disk could be responsible for oscillations
  of this kind. Variations in line shifts and in irradiance are expected
  with frequencies comparable to both the photospheric rotation rate
  and to higher harmonics. For line-shift oscillations the power in the
  second harmonic is substantially greater than it is for irradiance
  variations. Therefore a prominent 13-day component is not surprising,
  especially as we know that the second harmonic is strong in the sunspot
  distribution<SUP>2</SUP>. We estimate the amplitude, period and phase
  that would be expected to have been found in line-shift data, obtaining
  results comparable with those of Claverie et al.<SUP>1</SUP>. We
  suggest that the 13-day oscillation is a direct consequence of the
  inhomogeneity of the solar surface. Our analysis complements and
  extends a recent study by Durrant and Schröter<SUP>3</SUP>.

Title: The protosolar helium abundance
Authors: Gough, D. O.
1983prhe.work..117G    Altcode:
  The theory of stellar evolution applied to the sun cannot alone
  determine the solar helium abundance. Only if the neutrino flux is
  taken into account can a formal calibration be carried out. But
  that procedure appears to give the wrong result. An astronomical
  argument for calibrating mixing-length theory, using a measure
  of chromospheric activity in lower main-sequence stars, suggests
  that the protosolar abundance by mass is about 0.25. More direct
  measurements, using five-minute high-degree oscillation frequencies to
  measure conditions in the upper regions of the convection zone, and
  five-minute low-degree oscillations to probe the radiative interior,
  corroborate this finding. A recent unpublished report of quadrupole
  g-mode frequencies is also consistent. It is difficult to assess the
  uncertainty in the estimated abundance, because there are systematic
  unexplained discrepancies between theory and observation. However,
  the spread in the various determinations, excluding that involving
  the neutrino flux, is less than 10 percent of the mean value.

Authors: Gough, D. O.; Toomre, J.
1983SoPh...82..401G    Altcode: 1983IAUCo..66..401G
  A procedure is outlined for estimating the influence of large-scale
  convective eddies on the wave patterns of five-minute oscillations
  of high degree. The method is applied to adiabatic oscillations, with
  frequency ω and wave number k, of a plane-parallel polytropic layer
  upon which is imposed a low-amplitude convective flow. The distortion to
  the k - ω relation has two constituents: one depends on the horizontal
  component of the convective velocity and has a sign which depends on
  the sign of ω/k; the other depends on temperature fluctuations and
  is independent of the sign of ω/k. The magnitude of the distortion
  is just at the limit of present observational sensitivity. Thus there
  is reasonable hope that it will be possible to reveal some aspects of
  the large-scale flow in the solar convection zone.

  Fitting the results of linear normal-mode analysis of the solar
  five-minute oscillations to the observed k - ω diagram selects a
  class of models of the Sun's envelope. It is a property of all the
  models in this class that their convection zones are too deep to
  permit substantial transmission of internal g modes of degree 20 or
  more. This is in apparent conflict with Hill and Caudell's (1979)
  claim to have detected such modes in the photosphere.

Title: Time-dependent solutions of multimode convection equations

1982JFM...125...99T    Altcode:
  Truncated modal equations are used to study the time evolution of
  thermal convection. In the Boussinesq approximation these nonlinear
  equations are obtained by expanding the fluctuating velocity and
  temperature fields in a finite set of planforms of the horizontal
  coordinates. Numerical studies dealing with two or three modes with
  triad interactions are discussed. Rich time dependence was found
  in these cases: periodic and aperiodic solutions can be obtained,
  along with various steady solutions. Three-mode solutions reproduce
  the qualitative appearance of spoke-pattern convection as observed in
  experiments at high Prandtl numbers. Though the values of the periods of
  the time-dependent solutions do not agree with those of the experiments,
  their variation with Rayleigh number compares favorably. Except at
  the highest Rayleigh number considered (10,000,000), the theoretical
  Nusselt numbers agree well with experiment.

Title: Single-mode theory of diffusive layers in thermohaline

Authors: Gough, D. O.; Toomre, J.
1982JFM...125...75G    Altcode:
  A two-layer configuration of thermohaline convection is studied,
  with the principal aim of explaining the observed independence of
  the buoyancy-flux ratio on the stability parameter when the latter is
  large. Temperature is destabilizing and salinity is stabilizing, so
  diffusive interfaces separate the convecting layers. The convection is
  treated in the single-mode approximation, with a prescribed horizontal
  planform and wavenumber. Surveys of numerical solutions are presented
  for a selection of Rayleigh numbers R, stability parameters lambda
  and horizontal wavenumbers. The solutions yield a buoyancy flux
  ratio chi that is insensitive to lambda, in accord with laboratory
  experiments. However chi increases with increasing R, in contradiction
  to laboratory observations.

Title: Internal rotation and gravitational quadrupole moment of

Authors: Gough, D. O.
1982Natur.298..334G    Altcode:
  The internal angular velocity of the Sun is estimated from observations
  of apparent rotational splitting of low-order low-degree global
  oscillations detected in fluctuations in the limb-darkening function. A
  sidereal rotation of 3 µHz is inferred for the deep interior; this is
  more than six times greater than the equatorial rotation frequency of
  the photosphere. The inferred angular velocity distribution does not
  vary strongly with latitude, and yields a gravitational quadrupole
  moment J<SUB>2</SUB>~=3.6×10<SUP>-6</SUP>. When combined with the
  results of planetary radar observations to determine (2-β+2γ)/3,
  a combination of Eddington-Robertson post-newtonian parameters which
  in general relativity is unity, a value of about 0.994 (+/-0.012)
  is thus obtained.

Title: Evidence for an oblique magnetic solar rotator
Authors: Gough, D. O.
1982Natur.298..350G    Altcode:
  The observation by Claverie et al.<SUP>1</SUP>. of fine structure in the
  peaks in the power spectrum of low-degree 5-min solar oscillations has
  been interpreted as being a result of rotational splitting. Claverie
  et al.<SUP>1</SUP> claim that their measurements imply that an
  appropriately weighted average Ωmacr of the interior angular velocity
  Ω(r) of the Sun is about twice the value of Ω at the surface. At
  first sight their claim looks doubtful, because all 2l + 1 components
  of the set of modes of degree l appear in the spectrum, whereas only
  l + 1 of them should be detectable. However, Isaak<SUP>2</SUP> has
  recently speculated that the additional components are produced by
  an intense rotating magnetic core, such as had been postulated by
  Dicke<SUP>3,4</SUP> to account for the 12.2-day periodic component
  in the Princeton oblateness data<SUP>5-9</SUP>. Isaak<SUP>2</SUP>
  pointed out that the mean period 2π/Ω~=15 days of the solar interior
  that was inferred from the Birmingham data<SUP>1</SUP> is consistent
  with a central core rotating with the 12.2-day period and an outer
  envelope rotating with the photosphere. Moreover, his rough estimate
  of a few megagauss for the r.m.s. magnetic field that is required to
  support his conjecture is within about a factor 10 of that required
  by Dicke<SUP>3</SUP>. Thence he concluded that the Birmingham
  data<SUP>1</SUP> provide the first clear empirical evidence for an
  intense internal solar magnetic field. Here I examine this evidence
  in more detail, and show that the conclusion is premature. If the
  magnetic core does exist, the 5-min oscillations provide no clear
  evidence that it is rotating rapidly. Furthermore, unless one accepts
  a contrived magnetic-field configuration, an explanation for the 2l +
  1 components of the multiplets is still lacking.

  By measuring the difference between the shifts in the Fe 5,124
  spectrum line from light integrated from a central circular portion
  of the solar disk and from an annular portion exterior to it,
  we have detected high-order solar oscillations with degrees l
  = 3, 4 and 5. The frequencies of the octupole modes agree well
  with the values obtained from whole-disk measurements at the South
  Pole<SUP>1</SUP>. A least-squares fit of the observed frequencies to
  values interpolated between and extrapolated from the predictions
  of a sequence of solar models with different chemical compositions
  selects two models. One of these is almost identical to that obtained
  by a previous fit<SUP>15</SUP> of modes with l&lt;=2, and has a helium
  abundance somewhat greater than 25% by mass.

Title: On the interpretation of five-minute oscillations in solar
    spectrum line shifts.
Authors: Christensen-Dalsgaard, J.; Gough, D. O.
1982MNRAS.198..141C    Altcode:
  It is suggested that p modes in the sun are on average excited to a
  surface amplitude which is solely a function of frequency, except
  in the case of modes of the highest degree. Observational data in
  the 2-4 mHz range seem to be consistent with this hypothesis. The
  sharp-line component first reported by Claverie et al (1979) in the
  power spectra of whole-disc measurements is due to a near coincidence
  of the eigenfrequencies of modes of low degree, which are the modes
  to which such measurements are most sensitive. Previously, similar
  observations did not isolate the sharp-line component, in part, because
  although the amplitudes of the motion observed were consistent with
  the stated hypothesis, the observing intervals were too short. The
  amplitudes of the higher-degree modes responsible for the five-minute
  oscillations reported by Leighton. Noyes and Simon (1962) are also
  essentially in accord with the hypothesis presented.

  It is noted that solar models computed under a consistent set of

  usually depend on one or more parameters. A one-parameter sequence of
  models is considered here, each model being labeled by its initial
  heavy-element abundance Z. Given Z, the helium abundance Y and
  the mixing length used in the convection formulas are fixed by the
  calibration. An additional constraint is required to determine Z. Use
  is made here of the whole-disk five-minute oscillation data as a guide.

Title: On the seat of the solar cycle

1981NASCP2191..185G    Altcode: 1981vsc..conf..185G
  A discussion of some of the issues raised in connection with the seat
  of the solar cycle are presented. Is the cycle controlled by a strictly
  periodic oscillator that operates in the core, or is it a turbulent
  dynamo confined to the convection zone and possibly a thin boundary
  layer beneath it? Sunspot statistics are discussed, with a view to
  ascertaining the length of the memory of the cycle, without drawing a
  definitive conclusion. Also discussed are some of the processes that
  might bring about variations delta L and delta R in the luminosity
  and the radius of the photosphere. It appears that the ratio W =
  delta lnR/delta lnL increases with the depth of the disturbance that
  produces the variations, so that imminent observations might determine
  whether or not the principal dynamical processes are confined to only
  the outer layers of the Sun.

Title: A new measure of the solar rotation
Authors: Gough, D. O.
1981MNRAS.196..731G    Altcode:
  It is suggested that the fluctuations in the Princeton solar oblateness
  data, recently reanalyzed by Dicke, may result from rotational splitting
  of non-axisymmetrical oscillations. If this hypothesis is correct,
  the splitting frequency provides an integral measure of the internal
  rotation of the sun. Upper and lower bounds to the solar gravitational
  quadrupole moment are computed under the assumption that a single mode
  of oscillation predominates. The results depend on the nature of that
  mode: if it is a p mode the upper bound may be greater than the direct

  The recent observations ofsolar 5-min oscillations of low degree agree
  approximately with the predictions of a standard solar model with
  normal abundances of helium and heavy elements. Much of the apparent
  discrepancy noticed when the observations werefirst announced was
  a result of having neglected the influence of the Sun 's atmosphere
  in the normal mode analysis of the theoretical models. Our standard
  solar models are not in perfect agreement with observation, but it
  seems that major modifications will not be necessary to remove the
  remaining small discrepancies.

  The recent discovery by Claverie et al. (1980) of distinct,
  approximately evenly spaced peaks in the power spectra of whole disk
  solar Doppler measurements is interpreted with respect to implications
  about the structure of the solar interior. It is inferred that
  those observations imply a lower sound speed, appropriately averaged
  throughout the interior, and probably a lower mean temperature than
  predicted by standard solar models.

Authors: Christensen-Dalsgaard, J.; Gough, D. O.
1980LNP...125..369C    Altcode: 1980nnsp.work..369C
  The relation between the amplitudes of the gravitational potential
  perturbation and the displacement eigenfunctions of adiabatic
  oscillations of a solar model is discussed, and numerical results are
  tabulated for a selection of modes of low degree. In particular, a solar
  quadrupole oscillation with period 160 min and rms surface velocity
  of 1 m/sec would induce a perturbation in the external gravitational
  potential with an oscillating quadrupole moment of amplitude about
  one-third that of the static moment that would be produced by a uniform
  interior rotation of the sun with angular velocity comparable with that
  observed on the surface. It is concluded that quadrupole oscillations
  might be detectable gravitationally.

Authors: Christensen-Dalsgaard, J.; Dziembowski, W.; Gough, D.
1980LNP...125..313C    Altcode: 1980nnsp.work..313C
  The interpretation by Hill and Caudell (1979) of some of their solar
  oscillation data as being due to g modes of degree greater than 20 seems
  to imply that the solar convection zone is much shallower than that in
  standard solar models, probably representing only a few percent of the
  radius. It is here attempted to match the observed periods in models
  of this nature; the rather complicated spectrum of oscillations in
  such models can be understood in terms of the asymptotic behavior of
  modes of large degree. Possible excitation mechanisms for the modes
  are briefly discussed.

  The dependence of theoretical eigenfrequencies of five minute
  oscillation modes on the parameters that determine model solar
  envelopes has been investigated. It was found that the p mode
  frequencies are quite strongly correlated with the depth of the
  convection zone. Comparison of theory with observation suggests that
  the solar convection zone is about 200,000 km deep.

Title: Some theoretical remarks on solar oscillations

  The properties of the linear modes of oscillation of a nonrotating
  nonmagnetic star, with particular reference to the sun, are briefly
  described. The most likely mechanisms by which they might be excited are
  reviewed, and it is concluded that stochastic excitation by turbulence
  is probably the dominant mechanism that drives the solar five minute
  oscillations. Phase coherence of one of the components of the SCLERA
  diameter data is illustrated, and the new five minute oscillations in
  the Birmingham whole-disk Doppler data are discussed. Finally some of
  the problems raised by conflicting evidence concerning the structure
  of the sun are aired, but not resolved.

Title: The pre-main-sequence evolution of the sun
Authors: Gough, D.
1980asfr.symp..533G    Altcode:
  The phase of solar evolution after the dynamical collapse is
  considered. The physics of the Kelvin-Helmholtz phase of gravitational
  collapse is described, attention being given to the early stages of the
  star when it was completely convective. It is noted that subsequently,
  a radiative core developed and evolution was controlled by the rate
  at which heat can diffuse through it by radiative transfer. Since the
  study of the Kelvin-Helmholtz contraction alone does not give enough
  information regarding the state of the sun when it first settled down
  to approximate hydrostatic equilibrium, other stars are studied, and
  information on the sun is obtained by analogy. Many young solar-type
  stars, such as the T Tauri stars, are not in the completely convective
  Hayashi (1961) phase; hence it is proposed that the sun was completely
  mixed soon after its formation, which has some bearing on the sun's
  chemical structure. It is suggested that the surface of the sun was
  very nonuniform compared with the photosphere of today. The simple
  solar evolution model presented gives a good guide to the general way
  in which the sun contracted to the main sequence.

Title: Pulsations of model RR Lyrae stars.
Authors: Baker, N. H.; Gough, D. O.
1979ApJ...234..232B    Altcode:
  Radial pulsations of models of RR Lyrae stars are studied in
  linearized nonadiabatic theory. Convection in the hydrogen and helium
  ionization zones is treated by use of a time-dependent generalization
  of mixing-length theory. In a series of models of constant mass,
  luminosity, and composition, effective temperature is varied as a
  parameter. It is found, in agreement with previous work, that models
  in the instability strip are pulsationally unstable. Cooler models,
  however, are stabilized by the convention. Very cool models with deep
  convective envelopes are nearly neutrally stable to pulsation.

Title: Northeast-southwest compressive stress in Alberta evidence
    from oil wells
Authors: Bell, J. S.; Gough, D. I.
1979E&PSL..45..475B    Altcode:
  The introduction of the four-arm dipmeter well-logging tool has
  permitted hole asymmetry to be recognised and hole ellipticity to be
  measured and oriented. Many wells in Alberta, western Canada, have
  been shown to exhibit depth ranges over which they are non-circular
  as a result of caving of their walls. These break-outs occur so as to
  elongate the holes in a northwest-southeast direction. This direction
  of elongation is consistent between the break-outs in a given well,
  and between wells distributed over an area of more than 3 × 10
  <SUP>5</SUP> km <SUP>2</SUP>. Asymmetric hole elongation occurs in
  siltstones, sandstones, limestones, dolomites and one shale formation,
  and through the stratigraphic column from Devonian to Cretaceous. It
  is unrelated to dip of the strata. The hypothesis is advanced that
  the break-outs are caused by concentration of stress at the walls of
  the wells, in a stress field with large, unequal horizontal principal
  stresses, the larger oriented NE-SW. It is shown that a normal stress
  field (with the largest principal stress, σ <SUB>1</SUB>, vertical)
  is unlikely to produce large enough horizontal stresses to produce the
  break-outs. Consequently our hypothesis requires σ <SUB>1</SUB> to be
  horizontal and oriented NE-SW. The vertical principal stress could be
  either σ <SUB>2</SUB> (strike-slip stress field) or σ <SUB>3</SUB>
  (thrust stress field). The orientation of σ <SUB>1</SUB> at right
  angles to the Rocky Mountains fold axes suggests the possibility that
  the stress field responsible for the thrust faulting in the mountains
  is still present. A strike-slip stress field is also possible. The most
  prominent system of surface joints outcropping in Alberta, shown by
  Babcock to have sets oriented NE-SW and NW-SE, could have been formed
  in the proposed stress field. Direct measurements of the stress tensor
  at two or three points, if they verified this interpretation, would
  combine with the oil well break-outs to demonstrate a remarkably uniform
  stress field over a substantial part of the North American plate. The
  stresses in the Alberta crust here proposed may be related to tractions
  now acting on the edges and underside of the North American plate,
  including those producing postglacial uplift of Hudson's Bay; or may
  be residual stresses from past tectonic events such as the Laramide
  compression of the Rocky Mountains.

  Solar models with low initial heavy-element abundances, Z<SUB>zero</SUB>

  assumption that their surfaces are contaminated by interstellar material
  accreted at such a rate as to increase Z uniformly to a value of 0.02
  now. The models have thin convective envelopes and low neutrino fluxes,
  as do uncontaminated models with low Z. Oscillation periods of several
  modes of low degree are presented for these two models and for a model
  with Z = 0.02 throughout. They are found to differ sufficiently from
  model to model for an observational test to be possible, once the
  degree of the modes observed can be identified.

  in the polar magnetic substorms of September 7 and 18, 1974. Current
  density distributions were modeled at six representative epochs of
  the substorms through use of Oldenburg's (1976) inverse method. The
  principal ionospheric current was westward, though significant eastward
  current was also noted north of the westward electrojet. Bends in the
  ionospheric current segments toward the northwest appeared to follow
  the auroral oval in some cases, though in other instances they may
  have been associated with the Harang discontinuity.

Title: The geoid and single-cell mantle convection
Authors: Gough, D. I.
1977E&PSL..34..360G    Altcode:
  The geoid shows an antisymmetric departure from the spheroid of best
  fit. A single zero-elevation contour divides its surface into nearly
  equal strips in one of which the elevation is everywhere positive and in
  the other everywhere negative. These two areas are interleaved roughly
  like the strips covering a tennis ball. This pattern may indicate
  global single-cell convection in the mantle. It is argued that on this
  convection hypothesis, the upcurrents underlie the low-geoid strip,
  although the opposite view could be supported. No simple relation
  is to be expected between the proposed whole-mantle convection and
  plate motions, because other constraints act on plates and because the
  asthenosphere will partially decouple the whole-mantle motions from
  the lithosphere. However, the proposed whole-mantle convective system
  is consistent with rapid northwestward motion of the Pacific plate,
  with fast spreading of the East Pacific Rise and with slow spreading
  of the North Atlantic Ridge. Seismological velocity anomalies in the
  mantle, while highly relevant to whole-mantle convection, do not at
  present decide for or against the hypothesis here advanced.

  The physical model, assumptions, uncertainties, and degree of contact
  with reality involved in mixing-length theory as applied to stellar
  convection are reviewed. Attention is given to the ideas behind
  mixing-length theories, equations of motion, local mixing-length
  formalisms for a stationary envelope, the assumed structure of the
  convective flow, and the dynamics of convective eddies. A specific
  mixing-length model is considered in which the flow is represented by
  a conglomerate of cells or eddies that form, grow, and subsequently
  break up. The growth of convective eddies is examined along with
  the eddy convection rate, initial conditions, an eddy-annihilation
  hypothesis, and turbulent fluxes. The choice of a mixing length and
  the calibration of the heat-flux formula are discussed, Reynolds
  stress is analyzed, and transport of heat and momentum by small-scale
  turbulence is incorporated into the dynamics. Additional refinements
  and generalizations are described.

  Ways in which stellar convection is usually modeled are discussed. An
  ice-water experiment that can model some aspects of penetration and
  overshooting is described. Salient features of 33 different attempts at

1977LNP....71...57G    Altcode: 1977IAUCo..38...57G; 1977psc..conf...57G; 1977stco.coll...57G
  A clarification of mixing-length theory is recommended, and the
  determination of the equations of motion of quasi-particles is
  discussed. The treatment makes use of a specific model which considers
  the star to be composed of a background fluid through which discrete
  well-defined parcels of fluid move. These parcels may be thought of
  as quasi-particles whose number density is sufficiently high so that
  they constitute a second fluid permeating the background fluid. The
  convective model is a two-fluid model analogous to a composite model
  of radiation and matter except that the quasi-particle fluid is more
  complicated than the photon gas. Two approaches to the equations of
  motion are examined - one in which the quasi-particles are treated
  as idealizations of buoyant thermals, and the other in which the
  solution of the differential equations is sought and then applied in
  conjunction with hypotheses about the distribution of initial conditions
  of quasi-particles to compute heat flow.

  consideration being given to hexagonal planforms. Extensive surveys of
  steady solutions are presented for various Rayleigh numbers, Prandtl
  numbers, and horizontal wavenumbers. The dependences on Rayleigh number
  and Prandtl number at very large Rayleigh number are in satisfactory
  agreement with the results of asymptotic expansions.

  and Boehm-Vitense (1958), the corresponding models become almost
  indistinguishable. In particular, they predict the same depth, around
  150,000 km, for the solar convective zone.

Title: Modal equations for cellular convection

  We expand the fluctuating flow variables of Boussinesq convection in
  the planform functions of linear theory. Our proposal is to consider a
  drastic truncation of this expansion as a possible useful approximation
  scheme for studying cellular convection. With just one term included,
  we obtain a fairly simple set of equations which reproduces some of the
  qualitative properties of cellular convection and whose steady-state
  form has already been derived by Roberts (1966). This set of 'modal
  equations' is analyzed at slightly supercritical and at very high
  Rayleigh numbers. In the latter regime the Nusselt number varies
  with Rayleigh number just as in the mean-field approximation with one
  horizontal scale when the boundaries are rigid. However, the Nusselt
  number now depends also on the Prandtl number in a way that seems
  compatible with experiment. The chief difficulty with the approach is
  the absence of a deductive scheme for deciding which planforms should
  be retained in the truncated expansion.

1975MSRSL...8..309C    Altcode: 1975phs..conf..309C
  The stability of a solar model on the main sequence to linearized
  nonadiabatic nonradial oscillations has been studied. In the inner 99.9
  per cent b.y. radius the eigenfunctions were barely distinguishable
  from those of the adiabatic approximation. The integrated effect of
  this region is to stabilize the oscillations at zero age, but after
  a time of order .1 b.y. the destabilizing effect of the 3He (3He, 2p)
  4He reactions exceeds the damping. However, there is much more severe
  damping in a nonadiabatic shell beneath the photosphere about 300 km
  thick, which dominates the entire effect from the rest of the star
  interior to this shell.

  The stability of a solar model to low-order gravity modes has been

  effects of convection on the oscillations. The zero age main sequence
  model was found to be stable, but after about 200 m.y. the g<SUB>1</SUB>
  (l = I) mode became unstable. The dominant destabilization comes
  from the dependence of the pp chain reaction rate on the abundances
  of He-3 and H when nuclear equilibrium is disturbed, and is felt
  once a sufficient He-3 inhomogeneity is established in the energy
  generating core.

Title: The geophysical significance of geomagnetic variation anomalies
Authors: Gough, D. I.
1973PEPI....7..379G    Altcode:
  Analytic procedures in classical geomagnetic deep sounding and
  in two-dimensional magnetometer array studies are outlined. Three
  types of magnetic variation anomaly are considered, and anomalies of
  one geographical area. Continental-edge anomalies remain somewhat
  ambiguous as to the contribution of structure in the upper mantle;
  the geophysical significance in geothermal terms is understood, if the
  effect exists. Subduction-zone anomalies in the Peruvian Andes and in
  central Japan are considered in relation to the ascent of an andesitic
  melt fraction from the lithosphere slab, a process which accounts
  also for uplift and support of the mountains. In western North America
  anomalies are closely related to heat flow and indicate complex tectonic
  activity with considerable fine structure in general agreement with
  seismological parameters. The Basin and Range Province has a highly
  conductive upper mantle and still higher conductivities are found
  under the Wasatch fault belt and under the southern Rockies. Under the
  northern Rockies the evidence is for only a thin conductive layer in the
  upper mantle and in general for much lower heating than in mid-latitudes
  of the United States. Crustal anomalies are discussed in relation to
  the current concentration effect. It is suggested that some of them may
  mark metamorphic belts in crystalline basement rocks. This association
  has been demonstrated for the North American Central Plains anomaly.

Title: Intermediate Scale Lunar Roughness
Authors: Bastin, J. A.; Gough, D. O.
1969Icar...11..289B    Altcode: 1970Icar...11..289B
  A model surface consisting of parallel troughs has been examined in
  order to assess the importance of roughness in accounting for the
  properties of lunar thermal radiation. Insolation, emission from
  the surface, reabsorption of emitted radiation, and conduction are
  all considered. Brightness temperatures both in the midinfrared and
  microwave region are computed for eclipse and lunation conditions, not
  only as a function of lunar phase, lattitude, longitude, and direction
  of observation, but also for a variety of trough dimensions. All
  those features of the observed thermal radiation which cannot be
  accounted for on the basis of a plane homogeneous model are listed
  and the extent to which they can be accounted for by the proposed
  model is considered. In particular, a model for which the width and
  height of the raised portions are both equal to a quarter of the trough
  interval gives good agreement with the directional effects observed for
  lunar daytime radiation in the 10-14 μ wavelength band. In addition
  a number of other anomalies, including some already accounted for in
  the literature by other causes, receive more or less good explanations
  on the basis of roughness.

Authors: Gough, D. O.
1969JAtS...26..448G    Altcode:
  A formal scale analysis of the equations of motion in a plane parallel
  atmosphere is made, assuming conditions to be such that relative
  fluctuations in density and temperature are small. It is found that an
  energetically consistent set of approximate equations can be derived
  which preclude the existence of acoustic motions. Such equations can be
  used to describe subsonic convection or internal gravity waves. Under
  certain conditions the analysis can be generalized to include vertical
  pulsations of the atmosphere.

Title: Convection in Pulsating Stars: Time-Dependent Mixing-Length
    Theory in the One-Zone Model.
Authors: Gough, D. O.
1967AJ.....72S.799G    Altcode:
  By considering in detail the motions of convective elements, Vitense's
  mixing-length theory of turbulent convection has been reformulated so
  that it can be used in stellar envelopes whose ensemble mean properties
  are time dependent. To determine in which regions of the H-R diagram
  radially pulsating stars lie, it is usual to perform a linear stability
  analysis of static models. The time dependence of the perturbations is
  exponential; the equation of motion of the convective elements can then
  be integrated analytically, and explicit expressions for the variations
  in convective heat flux and turbulent pressure can be obtained. To
  gain insight into how convection can affect the stability of a star,
  the revised mixing-length theory has been applied to Baker's one-zone
  model [Stellar Evolut*on (Plenum Press, Xew York, 1966), p. 333J to
  estimate how the convection varies as the star pulsates. In general,
  the convective heat flux increases as the star compresses and so exerts
  a stabilizing influence. Furthermore, because the variations in the
  convective velocities are not in phase with the pulsation, the turbulent
  pressure can do work on, or be worked on by the star, and so influence
  the growth or decay of the pulsations. When the characteristic time
  scale of the convection is very much greater than the pulsation period,
  the effect is stabilizing, but when the convection time scale is short,
  the converse is true. Although no definite conclusions concerning the
  stability of a star can be drawn from the one-zone model, it does seem
  likely that convection tends to stabilize stars at the right-hand edge
  of the Cepheid instability strip, bringing theoretical predictions
  into closer agreement with the observations, and also provides an
  important destabilizing mechanism in the long-period variables. This
  work was supported by the Science Research Council, while the author
  was in receipt of a Research Studentship, and by the Xational Science
  Foundation under Grant GP-4859.

Title: Convection in Pulsating Stars: Quasi-Adiabatic Cepheid Models.
Authors: Baker, N. H.; Gough, D. O.
1967AJ.....72Q.784B    Altcode: 1967AJ.....72..784B
  The time-dependent mixing-length theory described in the previous
  abstract has been applied, in the quasi-adiabatic approximation, to a
  series of models of ~ Cephei stars of 7Mo previously studied by Baker
  and Kippenhahn (Astrophys. J. 142, 868,1965). The hottest models of
  this series have negligible surface convection zones, but the coolest
  models have deep convection zones that include the low-lying hydrogen
  and helium ionization regions. On the basis of the quasi-adiabatic
  approximation, which is not valid near the surface of our stellar
  envelopes, we tentatively conclude that the increasing importance of
  convection in stars of lower effective temperature is responsible for
  the return to stability at the cool edge of the Cepheid strip. This
  work has been supported by the National Science Foundation under Grant
  GP-5568 (N.H.B) and Grant GP-4859 (D.O.G.).

Title: The influence of a magnetic field on Schwarzschild's criterion
    for convective instability in an ideally conducting fluid
Authors: Gough, D. O.; Tayler, R. J.
1966MNRAS.133...85G    Altcode:
  The influence of a magnetic field on the onset of adiabatic thermal
  convection in a compressible ideally conducting fluid is studied. In
  the absence of a magnetic field Schwarzschild's criterion for the
  onset of convection is a purely local criterion; a magnetic field
  connects fluid at different levels and a local criterion which is
  necessary and sufficient for stability against convection can no
  longer be obtained. However, it is shown that, for certain simple
  magnetic field configurations which do not introduce hydromagnetic
  instabilities, there are simple local criteria which are sufficient
  for the stability of the system. It is pointed out that, in a fluid of
  finite electrical resistivity, a magnetic field cannot be expected to
  lead to complete stabilization of convective motions. In such a case,
  if the sufficient condition is satisfied, there should probably be a
  substantial reduction in the growth rate of the instability and in the
  energy carried by fully developed convection. One of the sufficient
  conditions for stability is applied to a sunspot model recently
  constructed by Chitre and it is found that it is satisfied throughout
  most of the model. Although the theory is not general enough to apply
  to this case, it is suggestive that a high degree of suppression of
  convection by a magnetic field should occur in such a spot.

Title: The Paleomagnetism of the Shawa Ijolite
Authors: Gough, D. I.; Brock, A.
1964JGR....69.2489G    Altcode:
  Oriented cores have been drilled at seven sites in ijolite exposures of
  the Shawa carbonatite complex, Southern Rhodesia. The ijolite has been
  dated at 209±16 m.y. from Rb → Sr decay. The directions of natural
  remanent magnetization are not consistent between sites. The ijolite
  proved difficult to treat by partial demagnetization in alternating
  fields, as instability of the direction of remanent magnetization tended
  to develop with demagnetizing fields only slightly larger than those
  required to remove isothermal magnetizations. Nevertheless, consistent
  directions of remanent magnetization were secured from five of the
  seven sites, after alternating-field treatment. On the assumption of
  a geocentric dipole field, the mean south magnetic pole position is
  64.2°S, 85.6°E, with radius of 95 per cent confidence 14.1°. This is
  in excellent agreement with other Mesozoic pole positions from Africa.

Title: The Paleomagnetism of the Ring Complexes at Marangudzi and
    the Mateke Hills
Authors: Gough, D. I.; Brock, A.; Jones, D. L.; Opdyke, N. D.
1964JGR....69.2499G    Altcode:
  Oriented rock cores have been drilled at nineteen sites in four
  intrusive ring complexes in the Nuanetsi igneous province of
  southeastern Southern Rhodesia. At Marangudzi eleven sites were
  distributed among nine rock types; the aim was to investigate
  the relation between rock type and remanent magnetization. Six of
  these sites, and one from another complex, gave no paleomagnetic
  results. At ten sites stable components of remanent magnetization,
  which remained after partial demagnetization in alternating fields,
  gave closely grouped directions approximately reversed with respect to
  the present geomagnetic field. These directions are considered to be
  those of thermoremanent magnetizations acquired when the rocks were
  intruded. The mean north paleomagnetic pole position from these ten
  sites is 60.9°S, 86.2°E, and A<SUB>95</SUB> = 6.5°. Samples from
  Marangudzi have been dated from K-Ar decay at close to 190 m.y., and
  it is probable that the other complexes are of approximately the same
  age. Two sites in different complexes are normally magnetized, which
  suggests that the geomagnetic field changed sense from reversed to
  normal near the close of the intrusive episode. Evidence is presented
  which shows that relative movement between Africa and the pole was
  small during the Mesozoic era.

Title: A Spinner Magnetometer
Authors: Gough, D. I.
1964JGR....69.2455G    Altcode:
  A spinner type rock remanent magnetometer is described. The instrument
  measures specimens having moments from 2 × 10<SUP>-6</SUP> emu upward,
  and measures moments from 10<SUP>-5</SUP> emu with precisions of 1° in
  direction and 5 per cent in magnitude. The lower limit for measurement
  corresponds to an intensity of magnetization of 5 × 10<SUP>-8</SUP>
  emu cm<SUP>-3</SUP> for the largest size of specimen which can be
  accommodated. A discussion is given of the factors which limit the
  sensitivity of a spinner magnetometer. Annulment of the geomagnetic
  field at the rotor is shown to be desirable when rocks having low
  remanence and high susceptibility are to be measured.

Title: The Significance of Paleomagnetic Results from Africa
Authors: Gough, D. I.; Opdyke, N. D.; McElhinny, M. W.
1964JGR....69.2509G    Altcode:
  Paleomagnetic results from Africa are critically reviewed and
  polar-wander curves are presented for the early Precambrian and for
  the interval from the Permian to the present. The data are shown to be
  consistent with the hypothesis that the dispersion of the geomagnetic
  field with respect to an axial geocentric dipole field was similar to
  its present dispersion both in the early Precambrian and in Mesozoic
  times. Strong evidence is presented that relative movement between
  Africa and the pole was slight during the Mesozoic. Similar evidence
  exists for Australia. Mesozoic paleomagnetic poles from the four
  southern continents are shown to form widely separated groups. Polar
  wander alone cannot account for both the divergence of the poles and the
  stability of the Mesozoic paleomagnetic poles relative to Africa and
  Australia. The results can be reconciled, however, by the supposition
  that relative movement has occurred between the southern continents
  since the Mesozoic. A Mesozoic reconstruction of Gondwanaland and
  also a tentative reconstruction for the Permian are proposed. These
  are based on the most reliable paleomagnetic results available.
