Luminosity of a quark star undergoing torsional oscillations and the problem of gamma ray bursts
J. Heyvaerts, S. Bonazzola, M. Bejger +1
We discuss whether the winding-up of the magnetic field by differential rotation in a new-born quark star can produce a sufficiently-high, energy, emission rate of sufficiently lon…

Fast rotation of neutron stars and equation of state of dense matter
P. Haensel, J. L. Zdunik, M. Bejger
Fast rotation of compact stars (at submillisecond period) and, in particular, their stability, are sensitive to the equation of state (EOS) of dense matter. Recent observations of…

Deformation and crustal rigidity of rotating neutron stars
J. L. Zdunik, M. Bejger, P. Haensel
We calculate parameters A and B of the Baym-Pines model of the hydro-elastic equilibrium of rotating neutron stars. Parameter A determines the energy increase of a non-rotating sta…
