Abstract

In local helioseismology numerical simulations of wave propagation are useful to model the interaction of acoustic waves with perturbations to a background solar model. However, the solution to the equations of motions include convective modes that can swamp the waves we are interested in. Thus, we choose to first stabilise the background solar model against convection. Consequently, this changes the acoustic properties (eigenmodes) of the model. Here we demonstrate the solar-likeness of our convectively stabilised model.
