Fermionic dark stars spin slowly

Abstract

We study r-mode instability of rotating compact objects composed of asymmetric and self-interacting Fermionic dark matter (dark stars). It is argued that the instability limit the angular frequency of the stars less than half of the Keplerian frequency. This may constrain the stars as alternatives to fast spinning pulsars or rapidly rotating Kerr black holes.
