Solar Magnetic Atmospheric Effects on Global Helioseismic Oscillations

Both the interior and the atmosphere of the Sun give a wide range of oscillations and waves. Interactions between waves and their highly structured and dynamic environment strongly influence the various properties of the waves. Understanding those possible interactions could provide priceless diagnostic tools in the search for hidden aspects of the solar interior and atmosphere. This article is an attempt to overview briefly our current understanding of how global helioseismic oscillations, f and p acoustic waves, interact with plasma flows and magnetic fields in the solar atmosphere.
