Nonlinear evolution of the r-modes in neutron stars.
The evolution of a neutron-star r-mode driven unstable by gravitational radiation is studied here using numerical solutions of the full nonlinear fluid equations. The dimensionless amplitude of the mode grows to order unity before strong shocks develop which quickly damp the mode. In this simulation the star loses about 40% of its initial angular momentum and 50% of its rotational kinetic energ...
متن کاملNonlinear Couplings Between r-modes of Rotating Neutron Stars
The r-modes of neutron stars can be driven unstable by gravitational radiation. While linear perturbation theory predicts the existence of this instability, linear theory can’t provide any information about the nonlinear development of the instability. The subject of this paper is the weakly nonlinear regime of fluid dynamics. In the weakly nonlinear regime, the nonlinear fluid equations are ap...
متن کاملNonlinear Evolution of R-modes in Rotating Relativistic Stars
A numerical study of nonlinear r-modes in isentropic, rapidly rotating relativistic stars, via 3-D general-relativistic hydrodynamical evolutions, is presented. On dynamical timescales, we find no evidence for strong coupling of r-modes to other modes at amplitudes of order one or larger. Therefore, unless nonlinear saturation sets in on longer timescales, the maximum r-mode amplitude is of ord...
متن کاملr-modes in superfluid neutron stars
The analogues of r-modes in superfluid neutron stars are studied here. These modes, which are governed primarily by the Coriolis force, are identical to their ordinary-fluid counterparts at the lowest order in the small angular-velocity expansion used here. The equations that determine the next order terms are derived and solved numerically for fairly realistic superfluid neutron-star models. T...
متن کاملEvolution of Isolated Neutron Stars
Abstract. In this paper we briefly review our recent results on evolution and properties of isolated neutron stars (INSs) in the Galaxy. As the first step we discuss stochastic period evolution of INSs. We briefly discuss how an INS’s spin period evolves under influence of interaction with turbulized interstellar medium. To investigate statistical properties of the INS population we calculate a...
