The interior of the Sun does not rotate at the same rate at all latitudes. The physical origin of this differential rotation is not fully understood. It turns out, long-period solar oscillations ...

Researchers at Nagoya University in Japan have conducted the most detailed simulation of the interior of stars and disproved a theory scientists have believed for 45 years: that stars switch their ...

Former endeavors had been limited to two-dimensional approaches that assumed the symmetry about the sun's rotation axis. "Matching the nonlinear simulations to the observations allowed us to ...
