Sun's Layer Dynamics: Charting Individual Motions

AI Thread Summary
Each layer of the Sun exhibits unique motion with varying velocities, prompting a search for detailed charts illustrating these dynamics. A contour plot of the Sun's rotation rate can be found on page 400 of a referenced book, which provides valuable insights into these motions. There is curiosity about potential relationships between the movements of the Sun's layers and the orbits of planets, though only tidal effects are suggested as a possible connection. Additional resources, such as "Guide to the Sun" by Phillips, are recommended for further exploration of helioseismology. Understanding these dynamics is crucial for comprehending solar behavior and its broader implications in astronomy.

Hello :)

I remember reading, that each of the sun's layers has its very own motion with a different velocity... & unfortunately I wasn't able to find any further information on this issue.

To be more precise, I am looking for a chart describing the motion of each layer independently.

Your guidance will be highly appreciated.


Thank you & Happy new year.

not on my computer. yours appears to be pdf and goes to the table of contents from which it seems to be impossible to get to page 400 (it goes to page 200 instead).

mine is html and goes directly to page 400.

oh i see …

yes yours is better … thanks! :smile:
 
Dear Tiny-Tim & Granpa, Many thanks for your kind contributions. :)

I have been wondering if there is any relation between the orbit of the planets & the net movement of the sun's layers... Is there any theory out there?

Thanks again.

what sort of relation are you looking for? tides would be the only relation I would expect.
