旋进超流中子星的稳定性

On the stability of precessing superfluid neutron stars

K. Glampedakis, N. Andersson, D. I. Jones

摘要:

讨论了一种新的发生在成熟中子星内部的超流不稳定性,并对自由进动的中子星进行了讨论。这种短波长的不稳定性类似于超流氦中湍流形成的不稳定性。它的存在对我们对中子星岁差的理解提出了严重的问题,并使使用这种观测来限制中子星内部的尝试变得复杂。

英文摘要:

We discuss a new superfluid instability occuring in the interior of mature neutron stars with implications for freely precessing neutron stars. This short-wavelength instability is similar to the instability which is responsible for the formation of turbulence in superfluid Helium. Its existence raises serious questions about our understanding of neutron star precession and complicates attempts to constrain neutron star interiors using such observations.
