| Abstract: | Mt. Wilson observations of solar velocity fields have been examined for evidence that the rotation axis of the nonmagnetic gas at the solar surface is oriented differently than the axis found by Carrington (1863) from sunspot observations. No difference is found with an accuracy of 0°.15 in the angle of inclination of the axis to the ecliptic. |
