Until the last few decades, investigations of stellar interiors had been restricted to theoretical
studies only constrained by observations of their global properties and external …

This article surveys the development of observational understanding of the interior rotation
of the Sun and its temporal variation over approximately forty years, starting with the 1960s …

Kepler ultra-high precision photometry of long and continuous observations provides a
unique dataset in which surface rotation and variability can be studied for thousands of stars …

Context. We still do not understand which physical mechanisms are responsible for the
transport of angular momentum inside stars. The recent detection of mixed modes that …

Solar gravity modes have been actively sought because they directly probe the solar core
(below 0.2 solar radius), but they have not been conclusively detected in the Sun because of …

Kepler has revolutionized our understanding of both exoplanets and their host stars.
Asteroseismology is a valuable tool in the characterization of stars and Kepler is an …

The Sun provides a critical benchmark for the general study of stellar structure and
evolution. Also, knowledge about the internal properties of the Sun is important for the …

The rotation rates in the deep interior and at the surface of 22 main-sequence stars with
masses between 1.0 and 1.6 M⊙ are constrained by combining asteroseismological …

Solar gravity modes (or g modes)—oscillations of the solar interior on which buoyancy acts
as the restoring force—have the potential to provide unprecedented inference on the …

The Global Oscillation at Low Frequencies (GOLF) experiment is a resonant scattering
spectrophotometer on board the Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SoHO) mission …
