The effect of slow rotation on the dipole magnetic field of neutron stars is studied. It is shown that the differential rotation of inertial frames produced by the effect of "dragging of inertial frames" induces an additional component of electric field outside the star. This new component, as well
Observational evidence for rotationally induced mixing in massive stars is summarized. From these observations and the models required to explain them, we conclude that rotation will increase the primary metal yields of massive stars, enhance the production of H-burning secondary products (e.g. 14N
