The Sun and stars rotate in di?erent ways and at di?erent velocity rates. The knowledge of how they rotate is important in understanding the formation and evolution of stars and their structure. The closest star to our Earth, the Sun, is a good laboratory to study in detail the rotation of a G star and allows to test new ideas and develop new techniques to study stellar rotation. More or less massive, more or lessevolved objects, however, can have averydi?erent rotation rate, structure and history. In recent years our understanding of the rotation of the Sun has greatly improved. The Sun has...

The mapping of the surface of stars requires diverse skills, analysis techniques and advanced modeling, i.e. In addition to interferometry, this book highlights techniques used for mapping the surfaces of stars using photometry made by space observatories;
