Mode damping
Damping rate: amplitude / exp( t), with
Perturbation in convective flux and effect of turbulent pressure perturbation pt appear to yield negative , i.e., damped modes

Characteristics of solar-like oscillations
• Intrinsically damped by the effects of convection
• Stochastically excited by the effects of convection
• Typically very small amplitudes (20 cm/sec or 5 ppm for main-sequence stars)
Found in stars that are not very solar-like
