Origin of the Sun's Differential Rotation
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 08 February 2017
Abstract
The present status of the Sun's differential rotation theories is reviewed. Attention is mainly focused on mechanisms for differential rotation based on the anisotropic viscosity concept and their modern developments within the framework of the mean-field hydrodynamics. The models with latitude-dependent heat transport and non-axisymmetric numerical simulations are briefly discussed.
