An imperfect cosmic fluid with energy flux is analyzed. Even though its energy density $\rho$ is positive, the pressure $p = -\rho$ due to the fact that the metric is asymptotically de Sitter. The kinematical quantities for a nongeodesic…

The spherically symmetric, static spacetime generated by a crossflow of non-interacting radiation streams, treated in the geometrical optics limit (null dust) is equivalent to an anisotropic fluid forming a radiation atmosphere of a star.…

We show that gravitational radiation drives an instability in hot young rapidly rotating neutron stars. This instability occurs primarily in the l=2 r-mode and will carry away most of the angular momentum of a rapidly rotating star by…
