The aim of this work is to investigate rotation profile of solar-like stars with magnetic fields. A diffusion coefficient of magnetic angular momentum transport is deduced. Rotating stellar models with different mass are computed under the…

The magnetic fields of solar-type stars are observed to cycle over decadal periods -11 years in the case of the Sun. The fields originate in the turbulent convective layers of stars and have a complex dependency upon stellar rotation rate.…

The surface rotation rates of young solar-type stars decrease rapidly with age from the end of the pre-main sequence though the early main sequence. This suggests that there is also an important change in the dynamos operating in these…

We study the four-dimensional relationships between magnetic activity, rotation, mass and age for solar-type stars in the age range 5-25Myr. This is the late-pre-main sequence (l-PMS) evolutionary phase when rapid changes in star's interior…

We developed a grid of stellar rotation models for low-mass and solar-type Classical T Tauri stars (CTTS) ($0.3M_{\odot}<M_{\ast}<1.2M_{\odot}$). These models incorporate the star-disk interaction and magnetospheric ejections to investigate…

In previous works of this series, we have shown that late B- and early A-type stars have genuine bimodal distributions of rotational velocities and that late A-type stars lack slow rotators. The distributions of the surface angular velocity…

There is a large change in surface rotation rates of sun-like stars on the pre-main sequence and early main sequence. Since these stars have dynamo driven magnetic fields, this implies a strong evolution of their magnetic properties over…

Magnetic fields in nearby, star-forming galaxies reveal both large-scale patterns and small-scale structures. A large-scale field reversal may exist in the Milky Way but no such reversals have been observed so far in external galaxies. The…

For moderate and slow rotation, magnetic activity of solar-like stars is observed to strongly depend on rotation. These observations do not yet have a solid explanation in terms of dynamo theory. We aim to find such an explanation by…

An update is given on the current status of solar and stellar dynamos. At present, it is still unclear why stellar cycle frequencies increase with rotation frequency in such a way that their ratio increases with stellar activity. The…

We present the results of a study aimed at assessing the differences in the dis- tribution of rotation speeds, N (v sin i) among young (1-15 Myr) B stars spanning a range of masses 6 < M/M < 12 and located in different environments: 7 low…

This paper is the first in a series aimed at understanding the long-term evolution of neutron star magnetic fields. We model the stellar matter as an electrically neutral and lightly ionized plasma composed of three moving particle species:…

In recent years, observers have found that the fraction of M-stars demonstrating significant magnetic activity transitions sharply from roughly $10\%$ for main-sequence stars earlier (more massive) than spectral type M3.5 (0.35 M$_\odot$)…

Recent work has shown that differential rotation, producing large scale drifts of fluid elements along stellar latitudes, is an unavoidable feature of r-modes in the nonlinear theory. We investigate the role of this differential rotation in…
