The basic idea of t.d. helioseismology (Duvall et al., 93)
• Measure the time for a wave packet to move from x1 to x2 and also the time from x2 to x1
• From the times infer subsurface conditions, e.g. sound speed, flows …

Time-distance helioseismology

Linear forward and inverse problems
• Linear sensitivity to small changes in the solar model
• In principle have to consider all possible types of perturbations: e.g. flows, sound speed, density, source properties, magnetic field, damping properties …
• Could use other quantities in addition to the travel time, for example the amplitude or central frequency of the cross-correlation

A recipe for computing kernels(Gizon & Birch, 2002 ApJ)
+ Motivated by Woodard (1997, ApJ): wavefield, excited by stochastic sources (convection)+ Compute the expectation value of the cross-covariance function+ Linearize (Born Approximation) the dependenceof the cross-covariance to changes in the solar interior (e.g. sound speed)
Previous work was based on ray approximation or single-source approximation,need something more general:

Damping, source strength, f-mode kernelsGizon, Birch (Apj,2002)
How big are these effects for reasonable sunspot models ?

Example: mtf + phase speed(Birch, Kosovichev, & Duvall, ApJ 2004)

Future work and open questions
• Quiet Sun: have many of the pieces, need to put them together
• Sunspots: need realistic forward modeling
• Radiative transfer ?
• Still some very hard questions: everything is correlated … wave excitation, damping, flows, sound speed etc.
