Differential rotation and meridional flows in stellar convection zones

Abstract Differential rotation and meridional flow are key ingredients in flux transport dynamo models of the solar activity cycle. As the subsurface flow pattern is not sufficiently constrained by observations, it is a major source of uncertainty in solar and stellar dynamo models. We discuss the current mean field theory of stellar differential rotation and meridional flows and its predicitons for the Sun and stars on the lower main sequence.
