How loud is the sun?

[Jodo42]

I'm not even sure whether our sun has an "atmosphere." But if it does, and you could somehow survive the undoubtedly ridiculous heat, how loud would the sun be?

Okay, the sun does indeed have an atmosphere, so you can hear sounds near the sun. Remember that sound is a compression wave, it requires a medium to travel. I'm not a real physicist (yet) so I couldn't tell you how loud it would be. Though I suspect it would be pretty intense since the Sun is just humongous.

If I may take a gander at this: The Sun does have an atmosphere, mostly helium and maybe some other stuff like hydrogen. There is also INTENSE wind from the heat. I remember also hearing something like the poles rotate faster than the equator because the Sun is all gas. But other than the wind, I'm not sure fusion has a sound. I know that atomic bombs use an uncontrolled fission reaction to make fusion occur to detonate, so I'd think it's comparable to a metric truck ton of Tsar Bombas going off at once, for the next couple billion years.

The Sun does in fact have an "Atmosphere" but not in the sense that we know it.

One part is called the Corona, It is hotter than the surface of the sun itself, and is extremely turbulant. it also extends out significantly further then the star itself.

Technically speaking, almost the entirity of the sun is atmosphere. Plasma is super heated gas, and gas=atmosphere of sorts.

So if there was a sound to hear I'd imagine it'd be a constant deafening explosion. A perpetual atomic explosion.

On the "surface" of the sun, the plasma is pretty thin, so that might make things quieter. i would imagine the sound, where the density is similar to earth sea level, as being like a huge waterfall (imagine an earth mass of water going through a one metre wide pipe. Per second).

I'm curious about what the inside of the core sounds like...

Boom!!!!! Zap plasma noises boom! Zap

Yes the sun does have a plasma atmo very loud

The sun sounds like this:

There are no audible sounds in Sun's atmosphere. The gas is simply too thin to exibit compression waves at the frequencies we hear. Particles are so spread out that they rarely collide. There might be weak sound waves of extremely low frequency, like 0.001 Hz, simply because in a wide area such as the Sun surface, we can account for some particle collisions, but I'm actually overstretching the possibilities. I think there is absolutely no sound at all.

If you find "sounds of Sun", that's radiowaves transformed into sound. It's not literal sound.
