Rotation of the Solar Convection Zone from Helioseismology
Helioseismology has provided very detailed inferences about rotation of the solar interior. Within the convection zone the rotation rate roughly shares the latitudinal variation seen in the surface differential rotation. The transition to the nearly uniformly rotating radiative interior takes place in a narrow tachocline, which is likely important to the operation of the solar magnetic cycle. T...
متن کاملSolar rotation
This paper reviews current understanding of the internal rotation of the Sun. We summarise the outcome of the latest helioseismic measurements of the angular velocity profile, and review existing dynamical models of rotation in the convection zone and in the radiative zone beneath. Finally, we discuss preliminary results along a new line of investigation.
متن کاملDifferential Rotation and Meridional Circulation in Global Models of Solar Convection
In the outer envelope of the Sun and in other stars, differential rotation and meridional circulation are maintained via the redistribution of momentum and energy by convective motions. In order to properly capture such processes in a numerical model, the correct spherical geometry is essential. In this paper I review recent insights into the maintenance of mean flows in the solar interior obta...
متن کاملRapid Rotation, Active Nests of Convection and Global-scale Flows in Solar-like Stars
In the solar convection zone, rotation couples with intensely turbulent convection to build global-scale flows of differential rotation and meridional circulation. Our sun must have rotated more rapidly in its past, as is suggested by observations of many rapidly rotating young solar-type stars. Here we explore the effects of more rapid rotation on the patterns of convection in such stars and t...
متن کاملSolar Surface Magneto-Convection
Magneto-convection simulations on meso-granule and granule scales near the solar surface are used to study small scale dynamo activity, the emergence and disappearance of magnetic flux tubes, and the formation and evolution of micropores. From weak seed fields, convective motions produce highly intermittent magnetic fields in the intergranular lanes which collect over the boundaries of the unde...
