The law of solar axial rotation is investigated by the spectroscopic method. Fayes formula: v (~0) = 2,03 --1.6 sin2 ~0 followed from a great number of observations (800 different values of velocity derived from an investigation of 800 spectral lines of different intensity and of different elements)

We derive the conditions under which the profile of a weak Fraunhofer line can be described as the convolution of the separate profiles of damping, thermal and non-thermal motions at the average depth of formation of the line. The average velocity distribution along the line of sight, rather than it
Using two original copies of Hevelius' 'Selenographia' and reducing spot positions with two different methods, we found that the solar angular rotation velocity at the beginning of the Maunder minimum was about the same as today. The gradient of the differential rotation was slightly steeper than gi
Radiospectroheliograms obtained at millimeter wavelengths were used to determine the rotation of the solar atmosphere. Regions observed in both emission as well as absorption (associated with Ha dark filaments) were followed across the disk. The average sidereal rotation rate deduced from emissive r
