Periodic changes in a stellar magnetic field can be explained in two ways: the oblique rotator model or the solar cycle model. Although many papers favor the oblique rotator model, there has not been enough evidence to rule out the solar…

Interplanetary magnetic field magnitude fluctuations are notoriously more intermittent than velocity fluctuations in both fast and slow wind. This behaviour has been interpreted in terms of the anomalous scaling observed in passive scalars…

The aim of this article is to study how the differential rotation of solar-like stars is influenced by rotation rate and mass in presence of magnetic fields generated by a convective dynamo. We use the ASH code to model the convective…
