Effects from Dark Matter Halos on X-ray Pulsar Pulse Profiles
Yukun Liu, Hong-Bo Li, Yong Gao +2
Neutron stars (NSs) can capture dark matter (DM) particles because of their deep gravitational potential and high density. The accumulated DM can affect the properties of NSs. In t…
Post-Newtonian Models of Differentially Rotating Neutron Stars
Yuk Tung Liu
A self-consistent field method is developed, which can be used to construct models of differentially rotating stars to first post-Newtonian order. The rotation law is specified by…
On the tidally induced gravitational collapse of a particle cluster
Kashif Alvi, Yuk Tung Liu
An important issue in the dynamics of neutron star binaries is whether tidal interaction can cause the individual stars to collapse into black holes during inspiral. To understand…
Dynamical instability of new-born neutron stars as sources of gravitational radiation
Yuk Tung Liu
The dynamical instability of new-born neutron stars is studied by evolving the linearized hydrodynamical equations. The neutron stars considered in this paper are those produced by…
Self force on a scalar charge in the spacetime of a stationary, axisymmetric black hole
Lior M. Burko, Yuk Tung Liu
We study the self force acting on a particle endowed with scalar charge, which is held static (with respect to an undragged, static observer at infinity) outside a stationary, axia…
Models of Rapidly Rotating Neutron Stars: Remnants of Accretion Induced Collapse
Yuk Tung Liu, Lee Lindblom
Equilibrium models of differentially rotating nascent neutron stars are constructed, which represent the result of the accretion induced collapse of rapidly rotating white dwarfs.…
Self force on charges in the spacetime of spherical shells
Lior M. Burko, Yuk Tung Liu, Yoav Soen
We study the self force acting on static electric or scalar charges inside or outside a spherical, massive, thin shell. The regularization of the self force is done using the recen…
Thermoelastic Noise and Homogeneous Thermal Noise in Finite Sized Gravitational-Wave Test Masses
Yuk Tung Liu, Kip S. Thorne
An analysis is given of thermoelastic noise (thermal noise due to thermoelastic dissipation) in finite sized test masses of laser interferometer gravitational-wave detectors. Finit…
