Abstract The interaction of an acoustic plane wave with a pair of uniformly magnetized flux tubes of circular cross section is considered to determine whether sunspot seismology can distinguish between the competing monolithic flux-tube and spaghetti sunspot models. It is shown that this interaction falls within one of three distinct categories depending upon the separation of the magnetic flux tubes and their individual scattering strengths. Estimates suggest that the interaction of the solar acoustic oscillations with a spaghetti sunspot will almost surely show coherent phasing of the scattered waves and will probably exhibit multiple scattering effects.
