Hydrodynamic simulations of granular convection predict the existence of supersonic flows covering ~3-4% of the solar surface at any time, but these flows have not been detected unambigously as yet. Using data from the spectropolarimeter…
Time-distance helioseismic measurements in surface- and deep-focus geometries for wave-paths that distinguish surface magnetic contributions from those due to deeper perturbations beneath a large sunspot are presented and analysed. Travel…
Helioseismology revealed an increase in the rotation rate with depth just beneath the solar surface. The relative magnitude of the radial shear is almost constant with latitude. This rotational state can be interpreted as a consequence of…

Observations show the ubiquitous presence of propagating magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) kink waves in the solar atmosphere. Waves and flows are often observed simultaneously. Due to plasma inhomogeneity in the perpendicular direction to the…
Context: Solar sectoral Rossby waves have only recently been unambiguously identified in Helioseimsic and Magnetic Imager (HMI) and Michelson Doppler Imager (MDI) maps of flows near the solar surface. So far this has not been done with the…
