(a) Horizontally averaged differential rotation, ﹩{\left\langle \overline{2{\rm{\Omega }}-1}\right\rangle }_{t}﹩, as a function of radius for Case M6. The scale is linear in the range (−10−3, 10−3) and logarithmic elsewhere. (b) Horizontally and temporally averaged torques from Equation (40) as functions of radius. The scale is linear in the range (−10−5, 10−5) and logarithmic elsewhere. For both panels, the temporal average is over the equilibrated state. Also, ﹩{T}_{{\rm{tot}}}:= {T}_{{\rm{mc}}}+{T}_{{\rm{v}}}+{T}_{{\rm{rs}}}+{T}_{{\rm{ms}}}+{T}_{{\rm{mm}}}﹩. The vertical lines mark rdrz and rbcz.
