Sun velocities from GOLF instrument

These claims can be reassessed in view of the different data sets available from the SoHO instruments and ground-based instruments. We produce a new calibration of the GOLF data with a more consistent p-mode amplitude and a more consistent time shift correction compared to the time series used in the past.

The calibration of 22 years of GOLF data is done with a simpler approach that uses only the predictive radial velocity of the SoHO spacecraft as a reference. Using p modes, we measure and correct the time shift between ground- and space-based instruments and the GOLF instrument. The p-mode velocity calibration is now consistent to within a few percent with other instruments.
