Abstract
AbstractIn order to understand what happens in the Sun when convection overshoots into the radiation zone an idealized model of penetrative convection with rotation is studied. Here we highlight two properties of the model which occur with parameters relevant to the Sun. Firstly rotation allows motions to persist far beneath the convection zone, and secondly the profile of helicity with depth is dominated by a local maxima just beneath the convection zone. This second result has consequences in dynamo theory.
