Bulk viscosity and r-modes of neutron stars
arXiv:0808.1145 · doi:10.1088/0954-3899/35/10/104078
Abstract
The bulk viscosity due to the non-leptonic process involving hyperons in condensed matter is discussed here. We find that the bulk viscosity is modified in a superconducting phase. Further, we demonstrate how the exotic bulk viscosity coefficient influences -modes of neutron stars which might be sources of detectable gravitational waves.
