This book was released on 2008 with total page 131 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the young neutron star case (Chapter 3), the pulsar is hot T & sim; 1010K and cools fast. The evolution depends on whether the neutrino cooling can be stopped by viscous heating from the three modes. In this case the evolution is more dynamic. After a short precursor, the modes oscillate around quasi-stationary states and the spin and temperature of the star oscillate around thermal equilibrium. There are three possible outcomes: the neutron star can spin down on different sides of or along the r-mode stability curve. If the viscosity is too low to stop the cooling a runaway occurs.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a study of the saturation of unstable f-modes (fundamental modes) due to low-order nonlinear mode coupling. Since their theoretical prediction in 1934, neutron stars have remained among the most challenging objects in the Universe. Gravitational waves emitted by unstable neutron star oscillations can be used to obtain information about their inner structure, that is, the equation of state of dense nuclear matter. After its initial growth phase, the instability is expected to saturate due to nonlinear effects. The saturation amplitude of the unstable mode determines the detectability of the generated gravitational-wave signal, but also affects the evolution of the neutron star. The study shows that the unstable (parent) mode resonantly couples to pairs of stable (daughter) modes, which drain the parent’s energy and make it saturate via a mechanism called parametric resonance instability. Further, it calculates the saturation amplitude of the most unstable f-mode multipoles throughout their so-called instability windows.

Download or read book Rotating Relativistic Stars written by John L. Friedman and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2013-02-11 with total page 435 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The masses of neutron stars are limited by an instability to gravitational collapse and an instability driven by gravitational waves limits their spin. Their oscillations are relevant to x-ray observations of accreting binaries and to gravitational wave observations of neutron stars formed during the coalescence of double neutron-star systems. This volume includes more than forty years of research to provide graduate students and researchers in astrophysics, gravitational physics and astronomy with the first self-contained treatment of the structure, stability and oscillations of rotating neutron stars. This monograph treats the equations of stellar equilibrium; key approximations, including slow rotation and perturbations of spherical and rotating stars; stability theory and its applications, from convective stability to the r-mode instability; and numerical methods for computing equilibrium configurations and the nonlinear evolution of their oscillations. The presentation of fundamental equations, results and applications is accessible to readers who do not need the detailed derivations.
Download or read book General Relativity Cosmology and Astrophysics written by Jiří Bičák and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-06-12 with total page 534 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The articles included in this Volume represent a broad and highly qualified view on the present state of general relativity, quantum gravity, and their cosmological and astrophysical implications. As such, it may serve as a valuable source of knowledge and inspiration for experts in these fields, as well as an advanced source of information for young researchers. The occasion to gather together so many leading experts in the field was to celebrate the centenary of Einstein's stay in Prague in 1911-1912. It was in fact during his stay in Prague that Einstein started in earnest to develop his ideas about general relativity that fully developed in his paper in 1915. Approaching soon the centenary of his famous paper, this volume offers a precious overview of the path done by the scientific community in this intriguing and vibrant field in the last century, defining the challenges of the next 100 years. The content is divided into four broad parts: (i) Gravity and Prague, (ii) Classical General Relativity, (iii) Cosmology and Quantum Gravity, and (iv) Numerical Relativity and Relativistic Astrophysics.

Download or read book Gravitational Wave Astronomy written by Nils Andersson and published by Oxford Graduate Texts. This book was released on 2019-11-28 with total page 680 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is an introduction to gravitational waves and related astrophysics. It provides a bridge across the range of astronomy, physics and cosmology that comes into play when trying to understand the gravitational-wave sky. Starting with Einstein's theory of gravity, chapters develop the key ideas step by step, leading up to the technology that finally caught these faint whispers from the distant universe. The second part of the book makes a direct connection with current research, introducing the relevant language and making the involved concepts less "mysterious". The book is intended to work as a platform, low enough that anyone with an elementary understanding of gravitational waves can scramble onto it, but at the same time high enough to connect readers with active research - and the many exciting discoveries that are happening right now. The first part of the book introduces the key ideas, following a general overview chapter and including a brief reminder of Einstein's theory. This part can be taught as a self-contained one semester course. The second part of the book is written to work as a collection of "set pieces" with core material that can be adapted to specific lectures and additional material that provide context and depth. A range of readers may find this book useful, including graduate students, astronomers looking for basic understanding of the gravitational-wave window to the universe, researchers analysing data from gravitational-wave detectors, and nuclear and particle physicists.

This book was released on 2022-03-28 with total page 77 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the last 25 years, an extensive body of work has developed various equation of state independent - or (approximately) universal - relations that allow for the inference of neutron star parameters from gravitational wave observations. These works, however, have mostly been focused on singular neutron stars, while our observational efforts at the present, and in the near future, will be focused on binary neutron star (BNS) mergers. In light of these circumstances, the last five years have also given rise to more attempts at developing universal relations that relate BNS pre-merger neutron stars to stellar parameters of the post-merger object, mostly driven by numerical relativity simulations. In this thesis a first attempt at perturbatively deriving universal relations for binary neutron star mergers with long-lived neutron star remnants is presented. The author succeeds in confirming previous results relating pre-merger binary tidal deformabilities to the f-mode frequency of the post-merger object. Combining this result with recent advances of computing the f-mode frequency of fast rotating neutron stars, he also derives a combined relation that relates the pre-merger binary tidal deformability of a BNS to the effective compactness of a long-lived neutron star remnant. Finally, he also proposes a direct relation between these quantities with improved accuracy.
Download or read book Stellar Collapse written by Chris L. Fryer and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2004-04-30 with total page 454 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Supernovae, hypernovae and gamma-ray bursts are among the most energetic explosions in the universe. The light from these outbursts is, for a brief time, comparable to billions of stars and can outshine the host galaxy within which the explosions reside. Most of the heavy elements in the universe are formed within these energetic explosions. Surprisingly enough, the collapse of massive stars is the primary source of not just one, but all three of these explosions. As all of these explosions arise from stellar collapse, to understand one requires an understanding of the others. Stellar Collapse marks the first book to combine discussions of all three phenomena, focusing on the similarities and differences between them. Designed for graduate students and scientists newly entering this field, this book provides a review not only of these explosions, but the detailed physical models used to explain them from the numerical techniques used to model neutrino transport and gamma-ray transport to the detailed nuclear physics behind the evolution of the collapse to the observations that have led to these three classes of explosions.
Download or read book Rotating Neutron Stars and the Equation of State of Dense Matter written by and published by . This book was released on 1990 with total page 16 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We investigate the properties of non-rotating as well as rotating neutron stars in the framework of Einstein's theory of general relativity. The nuclear equation of state of neutron star matter (electrically charge neutral many-baryon/lepton system) is calculated for the relativistic Hartree- and Hartree-Fock approximations. The influence of two-particle correlations on the equation of state is taken into account, too. An important result is that the limiting rotational frequency of a neutron star is set by instability modes caused by gravitational radiation reaction, which set in well below the Kerplerian frequency. 20 refs., 7 figs., 3 tabs.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The impact of the nuclear equation of state on the properties of rotating neutron stars from two different sources, stable rotation at the general relativistic Kepler period and rotation at the gravitational radiation-reaction driven instability mode, is analyzed. For this purpose models of rotating neutron stars are constructed in the framework of Einstein's theory of general relativity by applying a refined version of Hartle's perturbative stellar structure equations. The investigation is based on a representative collection of a total of seventeen nuclear equations of state, covering both non-relativistic as well as relativistic ones. 41 refs., 3 figs., 2 tabs.
