Viscous Boundary-Layer Damping of r-Modes in Neutron Stars.
Recent work has raised the exciting possibility that r-modes (Rossby waves) in rotating neutron star cores might be strong gravitational-wave sources. We estimate the effect of a solid crust on their viscous damping rate and show that the dissipation rate in the viscous boundary layer between the oscillating fluid and the nearly static crust is more than 105 times higher than that from the shea...
متن کاملEkman layer damping of r-modes revisited
We investigate the damping of neutron star r-modes due to the presence of a viscous boundary (Ekman) layer at the interface between the crust and the core. Our study is motivated by the possibility that the gravitational-wave driven instability of the inertial r-modes may become active in rapidly spinning neutron stars, eg. in low-mass X-ray binaries, and the fact that a viscous Ekman layer at ...
متن کاملSmall amplitude modelling of acoustic damping cavities
We will first recall the classical results for the laminar dissipation of acoustic energy in the boundary layer of a forced resonator. We then show how this result can be used in conjunction with a Helmholtz solver to calculate the laminar damping of a cavity of arbitrary geometry. The approach is validated by application to a trivial geometry for which the result is known analytically (HF1 ste...
متن کاملChaos control using small-amplitude damping signals
The aim of this Letter is to show that the injection of small damping signals can suffice to regulate the motion of a chaotic system around less complex attractors, such as equilibrium points and periodic orbits. The proposed feedback controller is composed by a high-pass filter and a saturator, so its implementation is quite simple and can be made on the basis of measured signals. The Duffing ...
متن کاملFrequency dispersion of small-amplitude capillary waves in viscous fluids.
This work presents a detailed study of the dispersion of capillary waves with small amplitude in viscous fluids using an analytically derived solution to the initial value problem of a small-amplitude capillary wave as well as direct numerical simulation. A rational parametrization for the dispersion of capillary waves in the underdamped regime is proposed, including predictions for the wave nu...
