Abstract

Professor Michael Thompson had made major contributions in developing techniques that have allowed us to ‘invert’ helioseismic data. These analyses have allowed us to determine the structure of the inner layers of the Sun. This in turn has led to tests of solar models, and perhaps more importantly, tests of the properties of stellar material. I review some of the interesting results that helioseismic structure inversions have revealed and how today we are still using structure inversions to reveal subtle features of solar structure.
