Gravitational Waves and the Maximum Spin Frequency of Neutron Stars
Alessandro Patruno, Brynmor Haskell, Caroline D'Angelo
In this Letter we re-examine the idea that gravitational waves are required as a braking mechanism to explain the observed maximum spin-frequency of neutron stars. We show that for…

Revealing the physics of r-modes in low-mass X-ray binaries
Wynn C. G. Ho, Nils Andersson, Brynmor Haskell
We consider the astrophysical constraints on the gravitational-wave driven r-mode instability in accreting neutron stars in low-mass X-ray binaries. We use recent results on superf…
