The Role of Active Regions in the Generation of Torsional Oscillations
K. Petrovay, E. Forgacs-Dajka
We present a model for torsional oscillations where the inhibiting effect of active region magnetic fields on turbulence locally reduces turbulent viscous torques, leading to a cyc…

Tachocline Confinement by an Oscillatory Magnetic Field
E. Forgacs-Dajka, K. Petrovay
Helioseismic measurements indicate that the solar tachocline is very thin, its full thickness not exceeding 4% of the solar radius. The mechanism that inhibits differential rotatio…
