Abstract
The linewidth of low degree modes in the 5 minute region of the Sun’s acoustic spectrum increases dramatically with frequency over the range of 2 mHz to some 5 mHz, in approximate agreement with theory. Below some 2.5 mHz the linewidth is narrow enough to allow rotational splitting of ℓ=1 modes to be measured. These measurements seem to confirm earlier results.
