X-ray burst ignition location on the surface of accreting X-ray pulsars: Can bursts preferentially ignite at the hotspot?
A. J. Goodwin, A. Heger, F. R. N. Chambers +2
Hotspots on the surface of accreting neutron stars have been directly observed via pulsations in the lightcurves of X-ray pulsars. They are thought to occur due to magnetic channel…
Waves in Thin Oceans on Oblate Neutron Stars
Bart F. A. van Baal, Frank R. N. Chambers, Anna L. Watts
Waves in thin fluid layers are important in various stellar and planetary problems. Due to rapid rotation such systems will become oblate, with a latitudinal variation in the gravi…
Deep model simulation of polar vortices in gas giant atmospheres
Ferran Garcia, Frank R. N. Chambers, Anna L. Watts
The Cassini and Juno probes have revealed large coherent cyclonic vortices in the polar regions of Saturn and Jupiter, a dramatic contrast from the east-west banded jet structure s…
Relativistic ocean -modes during type-I X-ray bursts
Frank R. N. Chambers, Anna L. Watts
Accreting neutron stars (NS) can exhibit high frequency modulations in their lightcurves during thermonuclear X-ray bursts, known as burst oscillations. These frequencies can be of…
Burning in the tail: implications for a burst oscillation model
Frank R. N. Chambers, Anna L. Watts, L. Keek +2
Accreting neutron stars (NS) can exhibit high-frequency modulations, known as burst oscillations, in their lightcurves during thermonuclear X-ray bursts. Their frequencies can be o…
Thermal convection in rotating spherical shells: temperature-dependent internal heat generation using the example of triple- burning in neutron stars
F. Garcia, F. R. N Chambers, A. L. Watts
We present an extensive study of Boussinesq thermal convection including a temperature-dependent internal heating source, based on numerical three-dimensional simulations. The temp…
