RE: [Vo]:Solar internal rotation driven by convection?

Hi, I don't see the problem. You have to factor in the magnetic field, even if it is self-generated in some kind of positive feedback dynamic with the internal rotation. The article mentions magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) in rotating spherical systems but does not explain that fully - which maybe i

Hi I was glancing at the title "SOLAR CONVECTION AND INTERNAL ROTATION": http://www.hao.ucar.edu/research/siv/siv_convection.php Convection can not drive rotation. Convection is caused by temperature gradients and gradients can not cause rotation. Am I wrong? The same argument was once used to d
