Abstract

Context. The dynamics of the solar core cannot be properly constrained through the analysis of acoustic oscillation modes. Gravity modes (g modes) are necessary to understand the structure and dynamics of the deepest layers of the Sun. Through recent progress on the observation of these modes – both individually and collectively – new information is available to contribute to inferring the rotation profile inside the nuclear burning core.
