The frequencies and damping times of the non radial oscillations of neutron stars are computed for a set of recently proposed equations of state (EOS) which describe matter at supranuclear densites. These EOS are obtained within two…
Kjeldsen et al. (1995, AJ 109, 1313; astro-ph/9411016) have developed a new technique for measuring stellar oscillations and claimed a detection in the G subgiant eta Boo. The technique involves monitoring temperature fluctuations in a star…
We systematically examine the properties of an electrically charged black hole in Eddington-inspired Born-Infeld gravity with not only the positive but also the negative coupling constant in the theory. As a result, we numerically find that…
The effects of nonlinear oscillations in compact stars are attracting considerable current interest. In order to study such phenomena in the framework of fully nonlinear general relativity, highly accurate numerical studies are required. We…
Variability and mass-loss are common phenomena in massive OB-type stars. It is argued that they are caused by violent strange mode instabilities identified in corresponding stellar models. We present a systematic linear stability analysis…
Gravity waves (or their signatures) are detected in stars thanks to helio- and asteroseismology and they may play an important role in the evolution of stellar angular momentum. Moreover, the observational study of the CoRoT target HD51452…
Unresolved coalescing binary neutron stars in the Galaxy and beyond produce a stochastic gravitational wave background within the LISA frequency band, which can be potentially dangerous for possible detection of fundamentally more…
The $\kappa$-mechanism has been successful in explaining the origin of observed oscillations of many types of "classical" pulsating variable stars. Here we examine quantitatively if that same process is prominent enough to excite the…
Relativistic stars are endowed with intense electromagnetic fields but are also subject to oscillations of various types. We here investigate the impact that oscillations have on the electric and magnetic fields external to a relativistic…
A thorough understanding of many astrophysical phenomena associated with compact objects requires reliable knowledge about both the equation of state (EOS)of super-dense nuclear matter and the theory of strong-field gravity simultaneously…
Precise measurement of stellar properties through the observation of continuous gravitational waves from spinning non-axisymmetric neutron stars can shed light onto new physics beyond terrestrial laboratories. Although hitherto undetected,…
As an extension of our previous work, we investigate the dynamical instability against nonaxisymmetric bar-mode deformations of differentially rotating stars in Newtonian gravity varying the equations of state and velocity profiles. We…
We develop a numerical scheme for obtaining the $r$-mode oscillations of rapidly rotating relativistic stars. In the present scheme, we neglect all metric perturbations and only take account of the dynamics of the fluid in the background…
We investigate the behavior of curvature invariants for a large ensemble of neutron stars built with equations of state (EOSs) that satisfy constraints from nuclear theory and perturbative QCD, as well as measurements of neutron-star…
Recently, a measurement of the pressure distribution experienced by the quarks inside the proton has found a strong repulsive (positive) pressure at distances up to 0.6 femtometers from its center and a (negative) confining pressure at…
Linear perturbation theory is appropriate to describe small oscillations of stars, while a mild non-linearity is still tractable perturbatively but requires to consider mode coupling. It is natural to start to look at this problem by…
In the context of the space-based mission CoRoT, devoted to asteroseismology and search for planet transits, we analyse the accuracy of fundamental stellar parameters (mass, radius, luminosity) that can be obtained from asteroseismological…
The property of adiabatic invariance is studied for the generalized potential satisfying the condition of identity of sphere's and point mass's gravity. That function contains a second term corresponding to the cosmological constant as…

We study the structure of neutron stars in perturbative f(R) gravity models with realistic equations of state. We obtain mass-radius relations in a gravity model of the form f(R)=R+\alpha R^2. We find that deviations from the results of…
