We study the time evolution of non-axisymmetric linear perturbations of a rotating magnetised neutron star, whose magnetic field is multipolar and purely poloidal. The background stellar configurations are generated self-consistently,…

We investigate torsional Alfv\'{e}n modes of relativistic stars with a global dipole magnetic field. It has been noted recently (Glampedakis et al. 2006) that such oscillation modes could serve as as an alternative explanation (in contrast…

Stars are self-gravitating fluids in which pressure, buoyancy, rotation and magnetic fields provide the restoring forces for global modes of oscillation. Pressure and buoyancy energetically dominate, while rotation and magnetism are…

In the context of the white dwarf asteroseismology, we investigate vibrational properties of a non-convective solid star with an axisymmetric purely toroidal intrinsic magnetic field of two different shapes. Focus is laid on regime of…

An extensive survey of gravitational-wave modes for uniform density stars is presented. The study covers stars ranging in compactness from $R/M=100$ to the limit of stability in general relativity: $R/M = 9/4$. We establish that polar and…

We perform nonlinear general relativistic ideal magnetohydrodynamic simulations of poloidal magnetic fields in rotating polytropic neutron stars. We have three primary goals: i) to understand the nature of magnetohydrodynamic instabilities…

The problem of the stability of magnetic fields in stars has a long history and has been investigated in detail in perturbation theory. Here we consider the nonlinear evolution of a non-rotating neutron star with a purely poloidal magnetic…

We investigate the oscillation spectrum of rotating Newtonian neutron stars endowed with purely toroidal magnetic fields, using a time evolution code to evolve linear perturbations in the Cowling approximation. The background star is…

We carry out numerical and mathematical investigations of shear Alfven waves inside of a spherical shell filled with an incompressible conducting fluid, and bathed in a strong dipolar magnetic field. We focus on axisymmetric toroidal and…

The impact of the combination of rotation and magnetic fields on oscillations of stellar fluids is still not well known theoretically. It mixes Alfv\'en and inertial waves. Neutron stars are a place where both effects may be at work. We…

We calculate non-axisymmetric oscillations of uniformly rotating polytropes magnetized with a purely toroidal magnetic field, taking account of the effects of the deformation due to the magnetic field. As for rotation, we consider only the…

The stability of large-scale magnetic fields in rotating stars is explored, using 3D numerical hydrodynamics to follow the evolution of an initial poloidal field. It is found that the field is subject to an instability, located initially on…

We investigate numerically Alfv\'en waves propagating along an axisymmetric and non-isothermal solar flux tube embedded in the solar atmosphere. The tube magnetic field is current-free and diverges with height, and the waves are excited by…

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…

The weakly non-linear interaction of slow magnetoacoustic and torsional Alfven waves propagating along an unperturbed poloidal magnetic field in a stellar interior is studied in the high plasma beta limit. It is shown that slow…

We study coupled axial and polar axisymmetric oscillations of a neutron star endowed with a strong magnetic field, having both poloidal and toroidal components. The toroidal component of the magnetic field is driving the coupling between…

Using the energy variational method of magneto-solid-mechanical theory of a perfectly conducting elastic medium threaded by magnetic field, the frequency spectrum of Lorentz-force-driven global torsional nodeless vibrations of a neutron…

Line-driven stellar winds from massive (OB) stars are subject to a strong line-deshadowing instability. Recently, spectropolarimetric surveys have collected ample evidence that a subset of Galactic massive stars hosts strong surface…

Strong magnetic fields in relativistic stars can be a cause of crust fracturing, resulting in the excitation of global torsional oscillations. Such oscillations could become observable in gravitational waves or in high-energy radiation,…

We study large-amplitude, very oblique Alfv\'en waves at low $\beta$, with small gradient length scales, comparable to the ion inertial scale $d_i$. Such waves have large density fluctuations, and slight dispersion from finite-frequency and…
