| contents | Magnetic cycles of solar-like stars influence their internal physics. Thus, the frequency, amplitude, excitation rate, and damping of the acoustic oscillation modes (p-modes) vary with the cycle over time. We need to understand the impact of magnetic activity on p-modes in order to characterise precisely stars that will be observed by the ESA PLATO mission, to be launched late 2026 with the objective to find Earth-like planets around solar-type stars. In this work, we investigate the variation of mode excitation in the Sun during Cycles 23, 24 and the beginning of Cycle 25. To do so, we analyse data obtained since 1996 by two instruments onboard the SoHO satellite: the GOLF spectrometer and the VIRGO sunphotometer. We use a method enabling us to reach a better temporal resolution than classical methods. Combining the variations of energy for several modes l=[0-2] in three frequency bands (i.e. [1800, 2450], [2450, 3110], [3110, 3790] μHz), our preliminary results show that more energy is associated to several modes during cycle minima, suggesting that there could be a second source of excitation other than turbulent convection that would excite several modes at a time during solar minima. |
