The Solid-State Imaging subsystem (SSI) on NASA's Galileo Jupiter orbiter spacecraft has successfully completed its two-year primary mission exploring the Jovian system. The SSI has remained in remarkably stable calibration during the 8-year flight, and the quality of the returned images is exceptional.
Solar oscillations have been observed at three different spatial scales at Big Bear Solar Observatory during 1986-1987 and, using three data sets, a new and more accurate table of solar oscillation frequencies has been compiled. The oscillations, which are presented as functions of radial order n and spherical harmonic degree l, are averages over azimuthal order and therefore approximate the normal mode frequencies of a nonrotating, spherically symmetric sun, near solar minimum. The table contains frequencies for most of the solar p and f modes with l between 0 and 1860, n between 0 and 26, and oscillation mode frequencies between 1.0 and 5.3.
