Discriminating solar and antisolar differential rotation in high-precision light curves

Discriminating solar and antisolar differential rotation in high-precision light curves

Surface differential rotation (DR) is one major ingredient of the magnetic field generation process in the Sun and likely in other stars. The term solar-like differential rotation describes the observation that solar equatorial regions rotate faster than polar ones. The opposite effect of polar regions rotating faster than equatorial ones …
