Magnetar Oscillations II: spectral method
Maarten van Hoven, Yuri Levin
The seismological dynamics of magnetars is largely determined by a strong hydro-magnetic coupling between the solid crust and the fluid core. In this paper we set up a "spectral" c…

On the excitation of f-modes and torsional modes by magnetar giant flares
Yuri Levin, Maarten van Hoven
Magnetar giant flares may excite vibrational modes of neutron stars. Here we compute an estimate of initial post-flare amplitudes of both the torsional modes in the magnetar's crus…

Magnetar Oscillations I: strongly coupled dynamics of the crust and the core
Maarten van Hoven, Yuri Levin
Quasi-Periodic Oscillations (QPOs) observed during Soft Gamma Repeaters giant flares are commonly interpreted as the torsional oscillations of magnetars. The oscillatory motion is…
