The Structure of the Sun

The Structure of the Sun

Editorial Reviews
Review
'This is an invaluable collection of lectures.' Irish Astronomical Journal

Book Description
In this timely volume, the editors present eight specially-written chapters by experts renowned for their teaching skills. The chapters show how astronomers can deduce the internal composition (density, helium abundance, etc.) and dynamical structure (rotation, sub-surface velocity fields, etc.) of the Sun through helioseismology, and how researchers can infer the central temperature from measurements of the flux of solar neutrinos.
