Sound waves from the sun


Sound waves from the sun

Study is called vibration waves in the sun with (seismological solar) "science of earthquakes Sun”, where the following waves occur naturally in the sun: the sound waves (p waves), and gravitational waves, and surface gravity waves. It consists of all these waves of vibrating molecules, although these vibrations caused different forces.
The pressure differences caused vibration of the molecules in the sound waves, but in the sun this will take sound waves through the convection zone, which lies just below the surface (photosphere), is not transmitted sound waves in a straight line.

Cause sound waves in the sun surface vibration in the direction of the country, such as the vibration knocks bell, when the bell knocks hammer hitting the bell at one place, and produces waves Suspended. And the surface of the sun waves suspended, although it has not produced for the event and a great one. Scientists assumed instead that many small obstacles in the area of ​​convection began, including most of the sound waves in the sun, such as the sounds of boiling water in a pot, but the size of the bubble formed at the surface of the sun is greater than the whole area of ​​Saudi Arabia, and issued by the sound waves.


And the sound coming from the sun is too low for us; since the blasted equal to 0.003 Hz, but we cannot hear the light waves from the sun was harsh scientists movement surface of the sun to know waves sound, and must monitor the sun long periods of time; because the sound waves need to be two hours to go from side to side in the sun, and this is what makes the observation from the ground difficult because you cannot see the sun during the night, so he launched by NASA in 1995 satellite known as (Observatory solar), and spins the satellite around the Earth so that it can monitor the sun always .

Measured by the movement of the sun's surface by observing the shift Doppler in the light of the sun, and have the vibrations measured intricate patterns equal to the sum waves suspended all in the sun and there in the sun ringtones compatibility as tones that appear when knocks bell, and can be calculated band suspended individual and severity in the sun by careful analysis.

Provide vibration waves sun scientists with information regarding the installed inside; This is because both the composition and the temperature and density affect the spread of sound waves, has presented the results of data analysis Observatory solar more profound understanding about the rate of rotation of the sun in the image of a function sports depend on the line width and depth, and the temperature of the sun and also density, and compares these results theoretical calculations to improve our understanding of the sun.
