Where are ther‐Modes of Isentropic Stars?

Abstract: Almost none of the r-modes ordinarily found in rotating stars exist, if the star and its perturbations obey the same one-parameter equation of state; and rotating relativistic stars with one-parameter equations of state have no pure r-modes at all, no modes whose limit, for a star with zero angular velocity, is a perturbation with axial parity. Similarly (as we show here) rotating stars of this kind have no pure g-modes, no modes whose spherical limit is a perturbation with polar parity and vanishing perturbed… Show more

“…With two elegant coordinate transformations, Bryan transformed equations (13) and (14) so that they become separable and allow the boundary conditions to be imposed. On the surface of the star these eigenfunctions correspond to waves that preserve the stellar volume.…”

“…Still, even in the relativistic case with rotation, it is possible to assign an overall parity to a mode by looking at the dominant term in an infinite series representation over the harmonic index ℓ. Lockitch & Friedman [8] call these modes axial-led or polar-led. If the spherical harmonic with lowest ℓ that contributes to the velocity field is axial, then the mode was refered to as 'generalized r-mode' [11].…”
