  • Differential rotation — is seen when different parts of a rotating object move with different angular velocities (rates of rotation) at different latitudes and/or depths of the body and/or in time. This indicates that the object is not solid. In fluid objects, such as… …   Wikipedia

  • Differential rotation in stars — What is differential rotation? *Differential rotation is when a rotating body has different angular velocities at different latitudes and/or depths of the body and/or in time. Differential rotation can be applied to any type of fluid body such as …   Wikipedia

  • Solar rotation — can vary because the sun is composed of a gaseous plasma, and therefore may lack a fixed rotation rate. The rate of rotation is observed to be fastest at the equator (latitude φ=0 deg), and to decrease as latitude increases. The rotation rate is… …   Wikipedia

  • Rotation around a fixed axis — Rotational motion can occur around more than one axis at once, and can involve phenomena such as wobbling and precession. Rotation around a fixed axis is a special case of rotational motion, which does not involve those phenomena. The kinematics… …   Wikipedia

  • Rotation group — This article is about rotations in three dimensional Euclidean space. For rotations in four dimensional Euclidean space, see SO(4). For rotations in higher dimensions, see orthogonal group. In mechanics and geometry, the rotation group is the… …   Wikipedia

  • Moment of rotation — Rotation Ro*ta tion, n. [L. rotatio: cf. F. rotation.] 1.

  • Stellar rotation — is the angular motion of a star about its axis. The rate of rotation can be measured from the spectrum of the star, or by timing the movements of active features on the surface.The rotation of a star produces an equatorial bulge due to… …   Wikipedia
