After the recent detection of solar equatorial Rossby waves, a renewed interest has been brought to the study of gravito-inertial waves propagating in the convective envelope of solar-type stars. In particular, the ability that some of…

The near-surface layers of cool main-sequence stars are structured by convective flows, which are overshooting into the atmosphere. The flows and the associated spatio-temporal variations of density and temperature affect spectral line…
