Description
The solar plasma is a natural source of gravitational waves at high frequencies, a spectral range that is attracting increasing interest due to its potential to reveal new physical phenomena. Motivated by this, in this talk, I will present the first comprenhensive calculation of the gravitational-wave power spectrum emitted by the Sun. This includes both microscopic processes—such as bremsstrahlung and photoproduction—and macroscopic contributions from hydrodynamic fluctuations, each computed using methods adapted from axion physics.
