Dynamos      Spherical mean-field dynamos and spherical dynamos from large-scale flows for stellar activity problems.
Phenomena like active longitudes and the flip-flop phenomenon may possibly be explained by the interaction of dynamo modes.
Sunspots      Variation and distribution of sunspots as manifestations of the solar dynamo over the centuries.
Stability      The stability of magnetic fields in the stellar radiation zones as derived from 3D simulations of spherical shells.
MRI      The magneto-rotational instability as a powerful mechanism for angular-momentum transport.
