In the present work we show robust indications of the existence of g modes in the Sun using 10 years of GOLF data. The present analysis is based on the exploitation of the collective properties of the predicted low-frequency (25 to 140…
The dynamics of the solar radiative interior are still poorly constrained by comparison to the convective zone. This disparity is even more marked when we attempt to derive meaningful temporal variations. Many data sets contain a small…

The Sun's surface vibrates in characteristic 5-minute oscillations, known as p-modes, generated by sound waves trapped within the convection zone. Although these oscillations have long been hypothesized to reach into the solar wind, direct…
Helioseismology has revolutionized our understanding of the Sun by analyzing its global oscillation modes. However, the solar core remains elusive, limiting a full understanding of its evolution. In this work, we study a previously…
Gravity modes in the Sun have been long searched during the past decades. Using their asymptotic properties Garcia et al. (2007) found the signature of the dipole g modes analyzing an spectral window between 25 and 140 muHz of velocity…
We make predictions of the detectability of low-frequency p modes. Estimates of the powers and damping times of these low-frequency modes are found by extrapolating the observed powers and widths of higher-frequency modes with large…
We have evaluated fluctuations in neutrino fluxes caused by solar gravity (g) modes based on the analysis of linear adiabatic oscillation of a spherically symmetric star. We find that the first-order fluctuation is zero due to geometrical…
p-mode oscillations in solar-like stars are excited by the outer convection zone in these stars and reflected close to the surface. The p-modes are trapped inside an acoustic cavity, but the modes only stay trapped up to a given frequency…
We present a hydrodynamic model that describes excitation of linear stellar oscillations by a stochastic background of gravitational waves (SBGW) of astrophysical and cosmological origin. We find that this excitation mechanism is capable of…
Although helioseismology has been used as an effective tool for studying the physical mechanisms acting in most of the solar interior, the microscopic and dynamics of the deep core is still not well understood. Helioseismological anomalies…

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 properties include the superadiabatic temperature…
