Scientific paper

We investigate the direct contribution of strong, sunspot-like magnetic fields to helioseismic wave travel-time shifts via two numerical forward models, a 3D ideal MHD solver and MHD ray theory. We confirm some existing ideas and bring forth new ones: (i) that the observed travel-time shifts in the vicinity of sunspots are largely governed by MHD physics, (ii) the travel-time shifts are sensitively dependent on frequency and phase speed filter parameters and the background power below the p_1 mode, and finally, (iii) despite its seeming limitations, MHD ray theory appears to succeed in capturing the essence of the travel-time variations as derived from the MHD simulations.
