Global Helioseismology
Abstract
Global helioseismology has been extremely successful in probing the solar interior. Unlike local helioseismology, which was more recently developed, global helioseismology relies on precise determination of eigenfrequencies and their inversions, which renders the global approach suited for measuring long-term averages of symmetric structures in the sun. Strengths and limitations of global helioseismology are discussed, as well as its main results and their impacts on our understanding of the sun.
