Convection in the Sun is Slower than We Thought
In the sun, subsurface flows are 20-100 times slower than what is predicted in widely used theoretical models.
Quakes on Jupiter: a new look at a familiar object
In this paper, techniques from helioseismology – using waves to learn about the interior of the Sun – are applied to yet another object: Jupiter. Because Jupiter is largely a fluid, like the Sun, astronomers have expected it to show global seismic behavior since the mid-1970s; the signal was even theorized to be about the same magnitude as solar oscillations. However, attempts to detect Jupiter’s global oscillations in the 80s and 90s were largely unsuccessful.
