Rapid rotation enhances the dynamo operating in stars, and thus also introducessignificantly stronger magnetic activity than is seen in slower rotators. Many young cool stars still have the rapid, primordial rotation rates induced by the…

In modeling a relativistic disk around a compact object, the self-gravity of the disk is often neglected while it needs to be incorporated for more accurate descriptions in several circumstances. Extending the Komatsu-Eriguchi-Hachisu…
We identify combinations of observables for rotating neutron stars that can one day bear on the question of whether there can be first order phase transitions in the neutron matter therein. We employ the Hartle-Thorne theory for stationary,…
