Rotation and Mixing in Stellar Interiors: Proceedings of the Workshop Frontiers in Stellar Structure Theory, Held in Honor of Professor Evry Schatzman in Les Houches, France, June 19–25, 1989

Goupil, Marie-Jo; Zahn, Jean-Paul

The 14 papers in this collection discuss recent progress in areas such as mixing in stellar interiors, redistribution and loss of angular momentum, emphasizing in particular the effects of turbulence. An introductory review by E. Schatzman, to whom this volume is dedicated, is followed by three sections: observational facts (surface abundances, stellar rotation, loss of mass and angular momentum, etc.), physical knowledge (mass transport and mixing by waves, turbulent transport, fast dynamo action, etc.), and the interpretation of observations.
