Rotational modes of non-isentropic stars and the gravitational radiation driven instability
We investigate the properties of r-mode and inertial mode of slowly rotating, non-isentropic, Newtonian stars, by taking account of the effects of the Coriolis force and the centrifugal force. The Coriolis force is the dominant restoring force for both r-mode and inertial mode, which are also called rotational mode in this paper. For the velocity field produced by the oscillation modes the r-mo...
متن کاملNegative energy modes and gravitational instability of interpenetrating fluids.
We study the longitudinal instabilities of two interpenetrating fluids interacting only through gravity. When one of the constituents is of relatively low density, it is possible to have a band of unstable wavenumbers well separated from those involved in the usual Jeans instability. If the initial streaming is large enough, and there is no linear instability, the indefinite sign of the free en...
متن کاملGravitational-Wave Driven Instability of Rotating Relativistic Stars
A series of recent surprises appear dramatically to have improved the likelihood that the spin of rapidly rotating, newly formed neutron stars is limited by a nonaxisymmetric instability driven by gravitational waves – and that the emitted waves may be detectable. The first of these was the discovery that the r-modes, rotationally restored modes that have axial parity for spherical models, are ...
متن کاملSecular Instability of g-Modes in Rotating Neutron Stars
Gravitational radiation tends to drive gravity modes in rotating neutron stars unstable. For an inviscid star, the instability sets in when the rotation frequency is about 0.7 times the corresponding mode frequency of the nonrotating star. Neutron stars with spin frequencies > ∼ 100 Hz are susceptible to this instability, with growth time of order years. However, it is likely that viscous dissi...
متن کاملA Novel Indicator to Predict the Onset of Instability of a Gravitational Flow on a Slope
In order to present a quantitative indicator for the onset of instability, in this paper, the critical points of a stratified gravitational flow on a slope are found and analyzed. These points are obtained by means of the solution of the two-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations via the standard Arakawa-C finite-difference method. Results show that in the marginal Richardson numbers, the critical...
