SUMMARY:Physics Of The Stochastic Excitation Of Stellar Modes\, BAUTZ
LECTURE\, Peter Goldreich\, CALTECH
DESCRIPTION:
\nInternal properties of stars with convective envelo
pes are determined by analyzing the frequencies of their acoustic mode
s. After a brief introduction to observational techniques\, I will des
cribe the emission\, absorption\, and scattering of sound inside a sta
r and how the waves ultimately escape through its photosphere. Then I
will demonstrate how these processes account for some remarkable regu
larities revealed by observations of solar modes across 3 orders of ma
gnitude in angular degree.
