Rhe sun as a star.
Abstract
The ways in which solar astrophysics serves to improve the methodology for the interpretation of stellar observations and the construction of stellar atmospheric models are summarized. The astrophysical processes highlighted are: stellar mass; stellar rotation; stellar magnetism; stellar composition; stellar companions; and evolutionary history.
