• A short movie of real granulation from the University of Freiburg
  • A one-hour timelapse view of solar granulation, from the Swedish Institute for Solar Physics
  • A solar granulation / convection simulation in 3-D from SolarViews.com
  • Convection movies from Potsdam group (Steffen, Schonberner, et al.)
    • Solar surface convection: XY view (intensity)
    • Subsurface convection in a MS star
    • Calibration of mixing length parameter with these models, from a presentation by H.-G. Ludwig et al.
  • The Yale group (F. Robinson et al.) have done similar work for the Sun on the MS and as a subgiant. They show other interesting things:
    • Superadiabaticity in upper CZ comparing MLT with hydro
    • MLT with CM and Hydro - comparison of ML with depth
  • Bob Stein's simulations show the downdraft nature of surface convection nicely:
    • Flyover of convective cells near surface - cool!
  • Our friends to the North (U. Minn) have carried out some enormous calcluations of convection in whole-star models:
    • Vorticity movie of surface convection
    • Penetrative convection: 1 year of computing!
