Stars in galaxies form from the cold rotationally supported gaseous disks that settle at the center of dark matter halos. In the simplest models, such angular momentum is acquired early on at the time of collapse of the halo and preserved…

Coronal mass ejections (CMEs) are eruptive events that cause a solar-type star to shed mass and magnetic flux. CMEs tend to occur together with flares, radio storms, and bursts of energetic particles. On the Sun, CME-related mass loss is…

We present the results of three-dimensional simulations of the deep convective envelope of a young (10 Myr) one-solar-mass star, obtained with the Anelastic Spherical Harmonic code. Since young stars are known to be faster rotators than…

The formation and dynamics of coronal rain are currently not fully understood. Coronal rain is the fall of cool and dense blobs formed by thermal instability in the solar corona towards the solar surface with acceleration smaller than…

Coronal mass ejections (CMEs) on stars can change the stars' magnetic field configurations and mass loss rates during the eruption and propagation and therefore, may affect the stars' rotation properties on long time-scales. The dynamics of…

Observations of stellar rotation show that low-mass stars lose angular momentum during the main sequence. We simulate the winds of Sun-like stars with a range of rotation rates, covering the fast and slow magneto-rotator regimes, including…

If the angular momentum of the molecular cloud core were conserved during the star formation process, a new-born star would rotate much faster than its fission speed. This constitutes the angular momentum problem of new-born stars. In this…
