摘要:

太阳中的日冕流是一种轴对称流,通常指向太阳表面的极向,并且被认为在磁场的产生和传输中具有根本的重要性。然而,它的真正形状和强度是有争议的。我们提出了一个数值模拟的日震波传播在整个太阳内部的存在下,一个规定的,固定的,单细胞,深纬向环流作为一个试验台日震测量技术。深聚焦时距日震学技术应用于人工数据表明,它实际上可以用来测量在太阳对流区很深的纬向流的影响。它表明,射线近似,这是通常用于解释日震测量仍然是一个合理的近似,即使是非常长的距离在12和42度之间,对应于52和195毫米之间的深度在这里考虑。从测量噪音,我们推断,在一个完整的太阳周期的顺序可能需要探测流动的所有方式的对流区的基础。

英文摘要:

The meridional flow in the Sun is an axisymmetric flow that is generally poleward directed at the surface, and is presumed to be of fundamental importance in the generation and transport of magnetic fields. Its true shape and strength, however, is debated. We present a numerical simulation of helioseismic wave propagation in the whole solar interior in the presence of a prescribed, stationary, single-cell, deep meridional circulation serving as a test-bed for helioseismic measurement techniques. A deep-focusing time-distance helioseismology technique is applied to the artificial data showing that it can in fact be used to measure the effects of the meridional flow very deep in the solar convection zone. It is shown that the ray-approximation which is commonly used for interpretation of helioseismology measurements remains a reasonable approximation even for the very long distances between 12 and 42 degrees corresponding to depths between 52 and 195 Mm considered here. From the measurement noise we extrapolate that on the order of a full solar cycle may be needed to probe the flow all the way to the base of the convection zone.
