Abstract

A model-independent reconstruction of mechanical profiles (density, pressure) of the solar interior is outlined using the adiabatic sound speed and bouyancy frequency profiles. These can be inferred from helioseismology if both p- and g-mode frequencies are measured. A simulated reconstruction is presented using a solar model bouyancy frequency and available sound speed data.
