Presentation
Our team objectives are related to the Sun and the stars in general. We are interested in stars from their core to their outermost atmosphere which is thin but sometimes surprisingly warm, especially in the case of the Sun.
Our two main topics of interest are:
- The Dynamic and internal structure of the Sun and stars (Heliosismology and asterosismology)
- Diagnosis and heating the outer layers (Coronal heating and solar wind acceleration; diagnosis and modeling projections; stellar activity...)
Our team's results in these domains (2008-2013) are summarized in this review (publications of the team for this period).
In its activities, the team relies on several space missions and the exploitation of their observations which are available in multiple data centers.
