1. Large number of families of pulsation modes 2. Modes are classified according to restoring forces acting on the fluid motion 3. Important modes among them are, f-mode associated with global oscillation of the fluid g-mdoe due to buoyancy and p-mode due to pressure gradient w-mode associated with the spacetime Finally, the inertial r-mode……. Pulsation modes of neutron stars
4
R-modes R-modes derive its name from (R)ossby waves Rossby waves are inertial waves Inertial waves are possible in rotating fluids and propagate through the bulk of the fluid The Coriolis force is the restoring force in this case Responsible for regulating sipns of rapidly rotating neutron stars/ accreting pulsars in LMXBs Possible sources of gravitational radiation
5
Gravitational Radiation Reaction driven instability For rapidly rotating and oscillating neutron stars, a mode that moves backward relative to the corotating frame appears as a forward moving mode relative to the inertial observer The prograde mode in the inertial frame has positive angular momentum whereas that of the retrograde mode in the corotating frame is negative Gravitational radiation removes positive angular momentum from the retrograde mode making its angular momentum increasingly negative and leads to the Chandrasekhar-Friedman-Schutz (CFS) instability Credit:Yoshida & Rezzolla
6
Growth vs Damping Bulk viscosity: arises because the pressure and density variations associated with the mode oscillation drive the fluid away from chemical equilibrium. It estimates the energy dissipated from the fluid motion as weak interaction tries to re- establish equilibrium Viscosity tends to counteract the growth of the GW instability Viscosity would stabilize any mode whose growth time is longer than the viscous damping time There must exist a critical angular velocity c above which the perturbation will grow, and below which it will be damped by viscosity If > c, the rate of radiation of angular momentum in gravity waves will rapidly slow the star, till it reaches c and can rotate stably
