Anisotropic Fluid Model for Massive Boson Stars: Spherically Symmetric Configurations
Ethan McKeever, Victor Guedes, Shu Yan Lau +1
Boson stars are among the best-studied exotic compact objects and constitute one of the few black-hole mimickers for which both the formation mechanism and dynamical behavior can b…
Nonlinear hydrodynamics in spinning neutron stars: Theoretical universal relations and equilibrium solutions
Hang Yu, Giorgio Nicolini, Shu Yan Lau +6
We study tides during the inspiral of a binary neutron star system, including nonlinear hydrodynamical interactions. Using an affine approximation that treats the perturbed neutron…
Irregular Repeating Tidal Disruption Events due to Diffusive Tides
Shu Yan Lau, Ethan McKeever, Hang Yu
A repeating partial tidal disruption event (rpTDE) is typically modeled as a star on a bound orbit that is partially disrupted by a massive black hole (MBH) at each pericenter pass…
Spacetime Quasi-normal Mode Oscillations of Anisotropic Neutron Stars
Jihao Yu, Victor Guedes, Shu Yan Lau +2
Neutron star asteroseismology offers a unique opportunity to probe nuclear physics through stellar oscillations. Although the pressure inside of a neutron star is typically assumed…
