The extraction and concentration of germanium (SAGE): 1. Ge is extracted from the Ga metal into an aqueous solution by an oxidation reaction. 2. The aqueous solution is concentrated. (a) Vacuum evaporation reduces the volume of aqueous solution by a factor of 8. (b) Ge is swept from this solution as volatile GeCl4 by a gas flow and trapped in 1 l of deionized water. (c) A solvent extraction is made from the water which concentrates the Ge into a volume of 100 ml. 3. The gas GeH4 is synthesized, purified, and put into a proportional counter.

View inside the Sun: Helioseismology Measure propagation of sound waves inside the Sun (like seismic waves in the Earth) 3 Types: acoustic, gravity, surface gravity waves -> resonant modes: p modes, g modes, f modes P-mode: Standing waves of the Sun's vibrations: Radial order n = 14, angular degree l = 20, angular order is m = 16. Red and blue show element displacements of opposite sign. The frequency of this mode determined from the MDI data is 2935.88 +/- 0.2 microhz.

Speed of sound in the Sun radial and latitudinal variations of the sound speed in the Sun, relative to a standard solar model. Red color = positive variations (`hotter' regions), blue color = negative variations (`cooler' regions).
