As helioseismology matures and turns into a precision science, modeling finite-frequency, geometric and systematical effects is becoming increasingly important. Here we introduce a general formulation for treating perturbations of arbitrary tensor rank in spherical geometry using fundamental ideas of quantum mechanics and their extensions in geophysics. We include line-of-sight projections and center-to-limb differences in line-formation heights in our analysis. We demonstrate the technique by computing a travel-time sensitivity kernel for sound-speed perturbations. The analysis produces the spherical harmonic coefficients of the sensitivity kernels, which leads to better-posed and computationally efficient inverse problems.
