Scientific paper

I will briefly review the problem of the evolution of the Sun's angular momentum and explain how internal gravity waves (IGWs) generated at the base of the convection zone can lead to angular momentum extraction from the deep radiative interior through the effect of differential filtering. I will present results for the evolution of the internal rotation profile when IGWs are included and show that the concomitant surface lithium burning is also consistent with observations.
