Schematical trends of angular velocity Ω∕Ω of the envelope of fast (blue line), median (green line), and slow (red line) solar-type rotators as a function of age from Gallet & Bouvier (2013). The open circle is the angular velocity of the present Sun. Using the scaling law from Varela et al. (2016), the red area delimits where the dynamics should be driven by the baroclinicity leading to a shellular rotation. The yellow area shows where our modeling allows us to expect a cylindrical differential rotation in the radiative core of solar-like stars if taking only into account rotation and induced large-scale flows.
