Helioseismology and the roots of solar activity



Michael Thompson (HAO)

Helioseismology provides a unique probe into the structure and dynamics of the solar interior. I will review some of the results from helioseismology that may provide constraints on the generation and evolution of magnetic flux in the solar interior, and I will conclude with a discussion of future challenges.
