We present comparison of numerical simulations of propagation of MHD waves,excited by subphotospheric perturbations, in two different ("deep" and "shallow") magnetostatic models of the sunspots. The "deep" sunspot model distorts both the…

The questions whether the Sun shrinks with the solar activity and what causes this have been a subject of debate. Helioseismology provides means to measure with high precision the radial displacement of subsurface layers, co-called "seismic…
Waves connect all the layers of the Sun, from its interior to the upper atmosphere. It is becoming clear now the important role of magnetic field on the wave propagation. Magnetic field modifies propagation speed of waves, thus affecting…
We consider the effect of a random magnetic field in the convective zone of the Sun on resonant neutrino spin-flavour oscillations. The expected signals in the different experiments (SK, GALLEX-SAGE,Homestake) are obtained as a function of…
We report on a detailed radiative transfer modeling of the observed scattering polarization in the H-alpha line, which allows us to infer quantitative information on the magnetization of the quiet solar chromosphere. Our analysis suggests…
A proposed mechanism for solar chromospheric heating is that magnetohydrodynamic waves propagate upward along magnetic field lines and dissipate their energy in the chromosphere. In particular, compressible magneto-acoustic waves may…
We present the observed local dispersion relations for magneto-acoustic-gravity waves in the Sun's atmosphere for different levels of magnetic field strength. We model these data with a theoretical local dispersion relation to produce…
We investigate the effect of a magnetic field on the global oscillation modes of a rotating fluid star in the magnetohydrodynamic approximation. We present general equations for the modification of any type of fluid mode due to a general…
The photospheric magnetic field outside of active regions and the network has a ubiquitous and dynamic line-of-sight component that strengthens from disk center to limb as expected for a nearly horizontal orientation. This component shows a…
Stability of toroidal magnetic field in a stellar radiation zone is considered for the cases of uniform and differential rotation. In the rigidly rotating radiative core shortly below the tachocline, the critical magnetic field for…

Helioseismology puts strong constraints on the internal sound speed and on the rotation profile in the radiative zone. Young stars of solar type are more active and faster rotators than the Sun. So we begin to build models which include…
The detection of the signature of dipole gravity modes has opened the path to study the solar inner radiative zone. Indeed, g modes should be the best probes to infer the properties of the solar nuclear core that represents more than half…
