The state of the art in helioseismic ground-based experiments
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 25 May 2016
Abstract
The new results obtained from the observation of solar oscillations over the past decade, have a direct impact on our knowledge of the Sun's interior. As a consequence, a great interest in helioseismology has arisen and is reflected in the development of new observational projects as well as new analyse and inversion techniques. In this review we will describe the present ground-based observational programmes, which, unlike the space ones, are mostly designed to produce high quality data over very long time spans (up to solar cycle time scales). The characteristics of the various observational programmes, single-site and network, will be described together with their performances, the main results obtained up to now, and some other logistical aspects.
