Recent work has shown that differential rotation, producing large scale drifts of fluid elements along stellar latitudes, is an unavoidable feature of r-modes in the nonlinear theory. We investigate the role of this differential rotation in…

At second order in perturbation theory, the $r$-modes of uniformly rotating stars include an axisymmetric part that can be identified with differential rotation of the background star. If one does not include radiation-reaction, the…

A numerical study of nonlinear r-modes in isentropic, rapidly rotating relativistic stars, via 3-D general-relativistic hydrodynamical evolutions, is presented. On dynamical timescales, we find no evidence for strong coupling of r-modes to…

The evolution of a neutron-star r-mode driven unstable by gravitational radiation (GR) is studied here using numerical solutions of the full non-linear fluid equations. The amplitude of the mode grows to order unity before strong shocks…

The axial mode oscillations are examined for relativistic rotating stars with uniform angular velocity. Using the slow rotation formalism and the Cowling approximation, we have derived the equations governing the r-mode oscillations up to…

The r-modes of neutron stars can be driven unstable by gravitational radiation. While linear perturbation theory predicts the existence of this instability, linear theory can't provide any information about the nonlinear development of the…

The r-mode instability in rotating relativistic stars has been shown recently to have important astrophysical implications (including the emission of detectable gravitational radiation, the explanation of the initial spins of young neutron…

We investigate the dynamics of r modes at amplitudes in the nonlinear regime for rapidly but uniformly rotating neutron stars with a polytropic equation of state. For this, we perform three-dimensional relativistic hydrodynamical…

We discuss the role of differential rotation in the evolution of the l=2 r-mode instability of a newly born, hot, rapidly-rotating neutron star. It is shown that the amplitude of the r-mode saturates in a natural way at a value that depends…

We study the dynamical evolution of a large amplitude r-mode by numerical simulations. R-modes in neutron stars are unstable growing modes, driven by gravitational radiation reaction. In these simulations, r-modes of amplitude unity or…

Despite the recent excitement over the r-mode instability of rotating stars, these modes are not yet well-understood for stellar models appropriate to neutron stars - perfect fluid models in which both the equilibrium and perturbed…

Rezzolla et al. [ApJ 531 (2000), L139; Phys. Rev. D 64 (2001), 104013; Phys. Rev. D 64 (2001), 104014] draw attention to the second order secular drift associated with r-modes and claimed that it should lead to magnetic field enhancement…

Techniques are developed here for evaluating the r-modes of rotating neutron stars through second order in the angular velocity of the star. Second-order corrections to the frequencies and eigenfunctions for these modes are evaluated for…

We use a simple physical model to study the nonlinear behaviour of the r-mode instability. We assume that r-modes (Rossby waves) are excited in a thin spherical shell of rotating incompressible fluid. For this case, exact Rossby wave…

The only r-modes that exist in a globally barotropic, rotating, Newtonian star are the fundamental $l = |m|$ solutions, where $l$ and $m$ are the indices of the spherical harmonic $Y_l^m$ that describe the mode's angular dependence. This is…

Perturbations of rotating relativistic stars can be classified by their behavior under parity. For axial perturbations (r-modes), initial data with negative canonical energy is found with angular dependence $e^{im\phi}$ for all values of…

We derive the hydrodynamical equations of r-mode oscillations in neutron stars in presence of a novel damping mechanism related to particle number changing processes. The change in the number densities of the various species leads to new…

Superfluid hydrodynamics affects the spin-evolution of mature neutron stars, and may be key to explaining timing irregularities such as pulsar glitches. However, most models for this phenomenon exclude the global instability required to…

The question is addressed whether stellar differentially rotating radiative zones (like the solar tachocline) excite nonaxisymmetric r-modes which can be observed. To this end the hydrodynamical stability of latitudinal differential…

In a second-order r-mode theory, S'a & Tom'e found that the r-mode oscillation in neutron stars (NSs) could induce stellar differential rotation, which leads to a saturation state of the oscillation spontaneously. Based on a consideration…
