“Differential rotation of the inner core was proposed ... in the same locations at different times. They found 121 examples of such earthquakes occurring between 1991 and 2023 in the South ...

Instead, they display differential rotation; some layers move at different speeds than others. For example, the sun rotates fastest at its equator, slower at increasing latitudes and slowest at ...

The amplitude and sense of the inferred differential rotation are similar to what is seen on the Sun. This may be surprising, given the likely high degree of magnetic surface activity on the star ...

These thus represent a wide ensemble of models—some of them unphysical (for example, because of a decrease in density with increasing pressure). Nevertheless, the inferred ensemble of ...

The physical origin of this differential rotation is not fully understood. It turns out, long-period solar oscillations discovered in 2021 play a crucial role in controlling the Sun's rotational ...

Astronomers from the Indian Institute of Astrophysics have mapped the Sun's differential rotation using 100 years of data from the Kodaikanal Solar Observatory. They discovered that the Sun's ...
