Table 1: Synodic and siderial rotation periods and corresponding siderial frequencies. Sunspot rotation periods are calculated from $\omega = 14.551{-}2.87\sin
^2 (B) $ determined by Balthasar et al. (1986). The value for the solar interior is the one just below the tachocline taken from Eff-Darwich et al. (2002).
