    Envelope coupling 1. Differential rotation winds up toroidal component of B 2. Magnetic torques tend to restore rigid rotation Convective Core If the envelope slows down angular momentum is also removed from the core NS & GRBs 2009 (ﺓةﻱيﺭرﺩدﻥنﻙكﺱسﺇإﻝلﺍا - Alexandria) Matteo Cantiello Long GRB Progenitors Fireworks 2009 (Bonn) Matteo Cantiello Long GRB Progenitors Leicester 2009 Matteo Cantiello Long GRB Progenitors Stockholm 2009 Matteo Cantiello Long GRB Progenitors Sedgwick 2011 Matteo Cantiello Long GRB Progenitors CfA 2012 Matteo Cantiello Long GRB Progenitors UCSB 2012 Matteo Cantiello MESA School

This results in (2l + 1) frequency peaks in the power spectrum for each mode. The frequency spacings between these peaks are called rotational splittings and are directly related to the angular velocity and the properties of the modes in their propagation regions inside the star.
