Gravity modes in rapidly rotating polytropic stars

Abstract

Using the Two-dimensional Oscillation Program (TOP), we have explored the effects of rapid rotation on gravity modes in polytropic stars. Coriolis force, centrifugal distortion as well as compressible effects have been taken into account. Thanks to our complete calculation, we have first studied the validity domain of perturbative methods and started to explore properties of these modes. We focus on l=1 in this analysis.
