Asteroseismology enabled measuring the rotation rate in the deep stellar interiors of stars across several evolutionary phases, advancing the theory of angular momentum transport in single stars from the main sequence to the white dwarf…

Transport of angular momentum in stellar interiors is currently not well understood. Asteroseismology can provide us with estimates of internal rotation of stars and thereby advances our understanding of angular momentum transport. We can…
