Abstract

AbstractWe conduct numerical simulations of updated solar models including a physical treatment of the tachocline (Spiegel & Zahn 1992), the rotational transition layer localized at the base of the solar convection zone. We first describe what is the current understanding of this thin shear layer. We then show that we improve substantially the agreement between the models and the observed Sun by taking into account the macroscopic mixing occuring within this region.
