Distortion of neutron stars with a toroidal magnetic field

Joachim Frieben, Luciano Rezzolla

Models of rotating relativistic stars with a toroidal magnetic field have been computed for a sample of eight equations of state of cold dense matter. Non-rotating models admit imp…

Equilibrium models of relativistic stars with a toroidal magnetic field

Joachim Frieben, Luciano Rezzolla

We have computed models of rotating relativistic stars with a toroidal magnetic field and investigated the combined effects of magnetic field and rotation on the apparent shape (i.…

Spontaneous symmetry breaking of rapidly rotating stars in general relativity: influence of the 3D-shift vector

S. Bonazzola, J. Frieben, E. Gourgoulhon

An analytical scheme and a numerical method in order to study the effects of general relativity on the viscosity driven secular bar mode instability of rapidly rotating stars are p…

Triaxial neutron stars -- a possible source of gravitational radiation

S. Bonazzola, J. Frieben, E. Gourgoulhon

Triaxial neutron stars may be important sources of gravitational radiation for the forthcoming generation of interferometric gravitational wave detectors such as LIGO, VIRGO, and G…

Spectral methods in general relativity -- toward the simulation of 3D-gravitational collapse of neutron stars

S. Bonazzola, J. Frieben, E. Gourgoulhon +1

Several applications of spectral methods to problems related to the relativistic astrophysics of compact objects are presented. Based on a proper definition of the analytical prope…
