Transport processes in stars: diffusion, rotation, magnetic fields and internal waves
arXiv:0708.1499 · doi:10.1051/eas:0832003
Abstract
In this paper, I explore various transport processes that have a large impact of the distribution of elements inside stars and thus, on stellar evolution. A heuristic description of the physics behind equations is provided, and key references are given. Finally, for each process, I will briefly review (some) important results as well as discuss directions for future work.
