The radial-orbit instability is a collective phenomenon that has heretofore only been observed in spherical systems. We find that this instability occurs also in triaxial systems, as we checked by performing extensive N-body simulations…
During the core bounce of a supernova collapse resonant active-to-active ($\nu_a \to \nu_a$), as well as active-to-sterile ($\nu_a \to \nu_s$) neutrino ($\nu$) oscillations can take place. Besides, over this phase weak magnetism increases…
Outcomes of numerical relativity simulations of massive core collapses or binary neutron star mergers with moderate masses suggest formations of rapidly and differentially rotating neutron stars. Subsequent fall back accretion may also…
By performing three-dimensional (3D) simulations that demonstrate the neutrino-driven core-collapse supernovae aided by the standing accretion shock instability (SASI), we study how the spiral modes of the SASI can have impacts on the…
Magnetorotational instability (MRI) has been suggested to lead a rapid growth of the magnetic field in core collapse supernovae and produce departures from spherical syymmetry that can be important in determining the explosion mechanism. We…
The stability properties of rotating relativistic stars against prompt gravitational collapse to a black hole are rather well understood for uniformly rotating models. This is not the case for differentially rotating neutron stars, which…
We have performed a linear pulsational stability survey of 6 series of long period variable models with M=1.0 Msun, L=3000 - 8000Lsun, and (X,Z)= (0.700,0.020),(0.735,0.005). The dynamic and thermodynamic couplings between convection and…
We study the viscosity driven (Jacobi-like) bar mode instability of rapidly rotating strange stars in general relativity. A triaxial, "bar shaped" compact star could be an efficient source of continuous wave gravitational radiation in the…
Molecular gas disks are generally Toomre stable ($Q_T>$1) and yet clearly gravitationally unstable to structure formation as evidenced by the existence of molecular clouds and ongoing star formation. This paper adopts a 3D perspective to…
A self-interacting dark matter halo can experience gravothermal collapse, resulting in a central core with an ultrahigh density. It can further contract and collapse into a black hole, a mechanism proposed to explain the origin of…
We study the oscillations modes of differential rotating remnants of binary neutron star inspirals by modeling them as incompressible Riemann ellipsoids parametrized by the ratio $f$ of their internal circulation to the rotation frequency.…
We examine the development and detectability of the $m=1$ instability in the remnant of binary neutron star mergers. The detection of the gravitational mode associated with the $m=1$ degree of freedom could potentially reveal details of the…
We present 2D simulations of pair-instability supernovae considering rapid rotation during their explosion phases. Recent studies of the Pop III star formation suggested that these stars could be born with a mass scale about 100 Msun and…
The Rossby mode (r-mode) perturbations in pulsars as a steady gravitational wave (GW) sources have been explored. The time evolution and the intensity of the emitted GWs in terms of the strain tensor amplitude have been estimated with the…
