The sense of line asymmetry of solar p-modes in the intensity power spectrais observed to be opposite of that seen in the velocity power spectra.Theoretical calculations provide a good understanding and fit to the observedvelocity power spectra whereas the reverse sense of asymmetry in the intensitypower spectrum has been poorly understood. We show that when turbulent eddiesarrive at the top of the convection zone they give rise to an observableintensity fluctuation which is correlated with the oscillation they generate,thereby affecting the shape of the line in the p-mode power spectra andreversing the sense of asymmetry (this point was recognized by Nigam et al. andRoxburgh & Vorontsov). The addition of the correlated noise displaces thefrequencies of peaks in the power spectrum. Depending on the amplitude of thenoise source the shift in the position of the peak can be substantially largerthan the frequency shift in the velocity power spectra. In neither case are thepeak frequencies precisely equal to the eigenfrequencies of p-modes. We suggesttwo observations which can provide a test of the model discussed here.Comment: Revised version.
