Helioseismology has enabled us to probe the internal structure and dynamics of the Sun, including how its rotation varies in the solar interior. The unexpected discovery of an abrupt transition - the tachocline - between the differentially rotating convection zone and the uniformly rotating radiative interior has generated considerable interest ...
In this volume, a number of international authorities describe the ways in which the notion of chaos occurs and can be applied in a variety of contexts. The articles are based on talks presented at the Royal Society meetings held early in 1987 and range from the mathematical (ergodic theory) through astronomy, physics, renormalization theory, and ...
The past two decades have seen remarkable advances in observations of sunspots and their magnetic fields, in imaging of spots and fields in distant stars and in associated theoretical models and numerical simulations. This book provides the first comprehensive combined account of the properties of sunspots and starspots. It covers both ...
