This paper reviews a new astrophysical subject: seismology of the giant planets. Seismology is dedicated to the sounding of the interior structure of any object; on the other hand, the interiors of the Jovian planets need to be constrained, in order to improve our knowledge of their structure and of their evolution, as well as the thermodynamical laws involved at high pressures and low temperatures. The relationship between Jovian seismology and, first, Jovian internal structure, and second, high pressure physics, is examined, in order to determine the task of “dioseismology”† in the next years. We present then the seismological theoretical approaches developped since the pionnering work of Vorontsov et al. (1976), who calculated the frequencies of the Jovian eigenmodes. We report the first observational attempts for the detection of the oscillations of Jupiter. We discuss the observational results and examine what can be done in the future.
