Inertial Waves in a Nonlinear Simulation of the Sun's Convection Zone and Radiative Interior

CC Blume, BW Hindman, LI Matilsky - The Astrophysical Journal, 2024 - iopscience.iop.org
Recent observations of Rossby waves and other more exotic forms of inertial oscillations in
the Sun's convection zone have kindled the hope that such waves might be used as a …

A Unifying Model of Mixed Inertial Modes in the Sun

R Jain, BW Hindman, C Blume - The Astrophysical Journal …, 2024 - iopscience.iop.org
We present an analytical model that unifies many of the inertial waves that have been
recently observed on the surface of the Sun, as well as many other modes that have been …

Existence of small-scale Rossby waves points to low convective velocity amplitudes in the Sun

CS Hanson, S Hanasoge - Physics of Fluids, 2024 - pubs.aip.org
Inertial waves occur naturally in rotating fluids such as the Sun and the Earth's atmosphere.
Rossby waves in the Sun have the potential to shed fresh light on interior turbulence and …

Solar Inertial Modes

L Gizon, Y Bekki, AC Birch, RH Cameron… - Proceedings of the …, 2023 - cambridge.org
The Sun's global inertial modes are very sensitive to the solar differential rotation and to
properties of the deep solar convection zone which are currently poorly constrained. These …

Probing the superadiabaticity of the solar convection zone with inertial modes

P Dey, Y Bekki, L Gizon - Proceedings of the International …, 2023 - cambridge.org
Our understanding of solar convection is incomplete. A crucial gap is the unknown
superadiabaticity in the solar convection zone, δ=▽–▽ ad. Global modes of oscillations in …
