In previous work, we have shown that recent updated standard solar models cannot reproduce the radial profile of the sound speed at the base of the convective zone (CZ) and fail to predict the Li7 depletion. In parallel, helioseismology has…
We have computed accurate 1-D solar models including both a macroscopic mixing process in the solar tachocline as well as up-to-date microscopic physical ingredients. Using sound speed and density profiles inferred through primary inversion…
The general consensus is that in order to reproduce the observed solar p-mode oscillation frequencies, turbulence should be included in solar models. However, until now there has not been any well-tested efficient method to incorporate…
The solar tachocline at the bottom of the convection zone is an important region for the dynamics of the Sun and the solar dynamo. In this region, the sound speed inferred by global helioseismology exhibits a bump of approximately 0.4%…
New solar models are presented, which have been computed with the most recent physical inputs (nuclear reaction rates, equation of state, opacities, microscopic diffusion). Rotation-induced mixing has been introduced in a way which includes…
We present an attempt to reconcile the solar tachocline glitch, a thin layer immediately beneath the convection zone in which the seismically inferred sound speed in the Sun exceeds corresponding values in standard solar models, with a…
Using full-disk observations obtained with the Michelson Doppler Imager (MDI) on board the Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO) spacecraft, we present variations of the solar acoustic mode frequencies caused by the solar activity…
The possible role of magneto-rotational instability (MRI) and its driven MHD turbulence in the solar interior is studied on the basis of the linear and nonlinear theories coupling with physical parameters, providing solar rotation profile…
The effects of turbulence on the mixing of gases and dust in the outer Solar nebula are examined using 3-D MHD calculations in the shearing-box approximation with vertical stratification. The turbulence is driven by the magneto-rotational…
The SoHO spacecraft made astrophysicists achieve a major breakthrough in the knowledge of the Sun. In helioseismology, both GOLF and MDI experiments aboard SoHO greatly improve the accuracy of seismic data. More specifically, the detection…
The surprising thinness of the solar tachocline is still not understood with certainty today. Among the numerous possible scenarios suggested to explain its radial confinement, one hypothesis is based on Maxwell stresses that are exerted by…
Solar models computed with mass loss, microscopic diffusion of helium and heavy elements and with updated physics have been evolved from the pre-main sequence to present days; they are compared to the observational constraints including…
The presence of turbulent phenomena in the outer solar atmosphere is a given. However, because we are reduced to remotely sensing the atmosphere of a star with instruments of limited spatial and/or spectral resolution, we can only infer the…
Recently helioseismic observations have revealed the presence of a shear layer at the base of the convective zone related to the transition from differential rotation in the convection zone to almost uniform rotation in the radiative…
It is shown that it is possible to introduce a mixing in the solar model not in a contradiction with the present data of helioseismology. Particularly it is demonstrated that resulted violation in the sound speed profile is within the…
The solar corona has been revealed in the past decade to be a highly dynamic nonequilibrium plasma environment. Both the loop-filled coronal base and the extended acceleration region of the solar wind appear to be strongly turbulent, but…
Standard solar models (SSMs) constructed in accordance with old solar abundances are in reasonable agreement with seismically inferred results, but SSMs with new low-metal abundances disagree with the seismically inferred results. The…
A simple way to couple an interface dynamo model to a fast tachocline model is presented, under the assumption that the dynamo saturation is due to a quadratic process and that the effect of finite shear layer thickness on the dynamo wave…
We provide a consistent theory of the tachocline confinement (or anisotropic momentum transport) within an hydrodynamical turbulence model. The goal is to explain helioseismological data, which show that the solar tachocline thickness is at…
The solar tachocline, located at the interface between the latitude-dependent rotation of the convection zone and the rigid radiative interior, presents high gradients of angular velocity which are of particular interest for the models of…
