The Contour Method: a new approach to finding modes of non-adiabatic stellar pulsations
J. Goldstein, R. H. D. Townsend
The contour method is a new approach to calculating the non-adiabatic pulsation frequencies of stars. These frequencies can be found by solving for the complex roots of a character…
The Tayler Instability in the Anelastic Approximation
J. Goldstein, R. H. D. Townsend, E. G. Zweibel
The Tayler instability (TI) is a non-axisymmetric linear instability of an axisymmetric toroidal magnetic field in magneto-hydrostatic equilibrium (MHSE). Spruit (1999, 2002) has p…
Angular momentum transport by heat-driven g-modes in slowly pulsating B stars
R. H. D. Townsend, J. Goldstein, E. G. Zweibel
Motivated by recent interest in the phenomenon of waves transport in massive stars, we examine whether the heat-driven gravity (g) modes excited in slowly-pulsating B (SPB) stars c…
