The Solar Differential Rotation: Present Status of Observations
TL;DR: In this paper, the present status of observations regarding the solar differential rotation is reviewed from contributions published in the last two decades and the theoretical aspects only where they are needed to guide and to understand observational efforts and results.
Journal ArticleDOI
The rotation of the Sun
TL;DR: There are two basic methods of determining the rotation of the sun: tracers on the surface or in the corona and line-of-sight velocities with the Doppler effect in spectrum lines as mentioned in this paper.

Solar Rotation Determined from Thomas Harriot's Sunspot Observations of 1611 to 1613.
TL;DR: By comparison with the rates in 1625 to 1626 and 1642 to 1644 it appears that the solar rotation was accelerating significantly in the cycles leading up to the Maunder minimum.
