Rotational variables are stars that vary in brightness due to star spots modulated by rotation. They are probes of stellar magnetism, binarity, and evolution. Phillips et al. (2023) explored distinct populations of ~50,000 high-amplitude…

We study the dynamical stability against bar-mode deformation of rapidly and differentially rotating stars in the first post-Newtonian approximation of general relativity. We vary the compaction of the star $M/R$ (where $M$ is the…

At finite temperature (T) there is a link with general relativity and hydrodynamics that leads to a lower bound for the ratio of shear viscosity and entropy density (\eta/s). We find that the bound is saturated in the simple model for quark…

A typical galaxy consists of a huge number of stars attracted to each other by gravity. For instance, the Milky Way has about $10^{11}$ stars. Thus it is typically modeled by the Vlasov-Poisson system. We prove an existence theorem for…
