Formation and stability of the solar tachocline in MHD simulations
The solar tachocline is a thin transition layer between the solar radiative zone rotating uniformly and the solar convection zone, which has a mainly latitudinal differential rotation profile. This layer has a thickness of less than $0.05R_{sun}$ and is subject to extreme radial as well as latitudin...
