Macroscopic Processes in the Solar Interior
  With the recent results of helioseismology aboard SOHO, solar models are more and more constrained (Brun, Turck-Chieze and Morel 1998 (astro-ph/9806272)). New physical processes, mainly connected to macroscopic motions, must be introduced to understand these new observations. In this poster, we present solar models including a turbulent pressure in the outer layers and mixing due to the tachocline (Spiegel and Zahn 1992). Our results lead us to conclude that: - Turbulent pressure improves the absolute value of the acoustic mode frequencies (~ 10 microHz at 4mHz), - Mixing in a tachocline thickness of 0.05 +/- 0.03 Ro (Corbard et al. 1997) looks promising.
