Exploring the Influence of Density Contrast on Solar Near-Surface Shear
Loren I. Matilsky, Bradley W. Hindman, Juri Toomre
The advent of helioseismology has determined in detail the average rotation rate of the Sun as a function of radius and latitude. These data immediately reveal two striking boundar…
The Role of Downflows in Establishing Solar Near-Surface Shear
Loren I. Matilsky, Bradley W. Hindman, J. Toomre
The dynamical origins of the Sun's tachocline and near-surface shear layer (NSSL) are still not well understood. We have attempted to self-consistently reproduce a NSSL in numerica…
Exploring the Role of a Tachocline in M-Dwarf Magnetism
Connor Bice, Juri Toomre
M-type stars are quickly stepping into the forefront as some of the best candidates in searches for habitable Earth-like exoplanets, and yet many M-dwarfs exhibit extraordinary fla…
Driving Solar Giant Cells through the Self-Organization of Near-Surface Plumes
Nicholas J. Nelson, Nicholas A. Featherstone, Mark S. Miesch +1
Global 3D simulations of solar giant-cell convection have provided significant insight into the processes which yield the Sun's observed differential rotation and cyclic dynamo act…
