Abstract

This paper is a sequel to our earlier paper on the mathematical modelling in determining the rotational frequency and the density of an ionized medium. The technique is based on the measurement of the group travel time for a wave propagating in a rotating ionized medium and finally a simple approximate formula determines the rotation and the density of the medium. The present paper calculates the damping of the pulse-waves in the rotating Sun and leads to a mathematical development to estimate more physical parameters of the solar system.
