We analyze more than 5000 days of Sun-as-a-star radial velocity GOLF and intensity VIRGO observations to measure the visibilities of the l=0, 1, 2, and 3 modes and the m-amplitude ratios of the l=2 and 3 modes in the solar acoustic…

The quest for the solar gravity modes (or g modes) is key for the understanding of the structure and dynamics of the solar core. In this paper, we review the history of the solar g-mode detection which is separated in three nearly distinct…
The eleven year solar cycle is known to affect the global modes of solar acoustic oscillations. In particular, p mode frequencies increase with solar activity. We propose a new method to detect the solar cycle from the p-mode…
