Self-consistent 2D models of fast rotating early-type star
F. Espinosa Lara, M. Rieutord
This work aims at presenting the first two-dimensional models of an isolated rapidly rotating star that include the derivation of the differential rotation and meridional circulati…
Gravity Darkening in Binary Stars
Francisco Espinosa Lara, Michel Rieutord
Context.Interpretation of light curves of many types of binary stars requires the inclusion of the (cor)relation between surface brightness and local effective gravity. Until recen…
On the excitation of inertial modes in an experimental spherical Couette flow
Michel Rieutord, Santiago Andres Triana, Daniel S. Zimmerman +1
Spherical Couette flow (flow between concentric rotating spheres) is one of flows under consideration for the laboratory magnetic dynamos. Recent experiments have shown that such f…
Ab initio modelling of steady rotating stars
Michel Rieutord, Francisco Espinosa Lara
Modelling isolated rotating stars at any rotation rate is a challenge for the next generation of stellar models. These models will couple dynamical aspects of rotating stars, like…
