Abstract The aim of the present work is the detection of solar g-modes, by means of a new observational strategy based on the exploitation of their spatial and temporal properties. The basic data, obtained at the Observatorio del Teide in 1993, consists of daily solar velocity measurements taken continuously and sequentially at six different and symmetric positions on the solar disk. By correlating the time series resulting from the reduction process, from different solar disk positions and considering the geometrical properties of different modes (l,m) on the Sun's surface, some of these can be selectively eliminated or enhanced. Moreover, the main spectral features present in the resulting power spectra must have precise phase relations if they correspond to global solar g-modes. The severe constraints established by the above properties have been applied to the best observed series (summer 1993). As a result, a discrete series of peaks have been selected that fulfill all the imposed conditions and which can therefore be interpreted as being of solar origin.
