Scientific paper

In this short article we review the advances that have been obtained in the global modelling of angular momentum transport in stellar interiors during the last years. First, we consider the couplings between differential rotation and the large-scale meridional circulation and shear-induced turbulence this induces. Then, we describe the state of the art of our understanding of transport mechanisms in presence of a fossil magnetic field. Next, we show how rotation and magnetic fields are now taken into account in the study of internal waves. Finally, we emphasize that it becomes necessary to get a complete picture of the interaction of stars with their environment.
