From an Intermittent Rotating Star to a Leader [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the twenty-sixth annual ACM symposium on Principles of distributed computing, 2007
Considering an asynchronous system made up of n processes and where up to t of them can crash, finding the weakest assumptions that such a system has to satisfy for a common leader to be eventually elected is one of the holy grail quests of fault-tolerant asynchronous computing. This paper is a step in such a quest. It has two main contributions. First,

Differential rotation in F stars [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomische Nachrichten, 2007
AbstractDifferential rotation can be detected in single line profiles of stars rotating more rapidly than about v sin i = 10km s‐1 with the Fourier transform technique. This allows to search for differential rotation in large samples to look for correlations between differential rotation and other stellar parameters.

Rotation Mixing and Variability in a Stars [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Astronomical Union Colloquium, 1976
The purpose of this paper is to contribute to answer the question : why among A stars are there variable and “constant” stars? To do this we will first review the observational properties of these stars, then discuss the theoretical models based on the interplay between microscopic diffusion and rotation, and finally discuss the “unsolved” questions !

Abundances in rapidly rotating a stars [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Astronomical Union Colloquium, 1993
AbstractA study is undertaken to determine abundances in rapidly rotating main sequence A stars (v sin i = 100 − 180 km/s) in order to investigate if non-solar abundance patterns found in slow rotators (Lemke 1989, 1990) persist toward higher rotational velocities.

Vega is a rapidly rotating star

open access: yesNature, 2006
Vega, the second brightest star in the northern hemisphere, serves as a primary spectral type standard. While its spectrum is dominated by broad hydrogen lines, the narrower lines of the heavy elements suggested slow to moderate rotation, giving confidence that the ground-based calibration of its visibile spectrum could be safely extrapolated into the ...

Oscillations of rotating neutron stars [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 1991
AbstractWe use a perturbation technique to compute the rotational corrections to the non-radial oscillation spectrum of a realistic neutron-star model. We compute, to first order in the rotation rate, the corrections to the normal mode eigenfrequencies and eigenfunctions.

Existence of rotating magnetic stars

open access: yesPhysica D: Nonlinear Phenomena, 2019
We consider a star as a compressible fluid subject to gravitational and magnetic forces. This leads to an Euler-Poisson system coupled to a magnetic field, which may be regarded as an MHD model together with gravity. The star executes steadily rotating motion about a fixed axis.

STRUCTURE OF UNIFORMLY ROTATING STARS [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2011
Zero age main sequence models of uniformly rotating stars have been computed for ten masses between 1.625 and 8 M_\odot and 21 rotation rates from zero to nearly critical rotation. The surface shape is used to distinguish rotation rather than the surface equatorial velocity or the rotation rate.

Rotating fermion-boson stars

open access: yesPhysical Review D
Rotating fermion-boson stars are hypothetical celestial objects that consist of both fermionic and bosonic matter interacting exclusively through gravity. Bosonic fields are believed to arise in certain models of particle physics describing dark matter and could accumulate within neutron stars, modifying some of their properties and gravitational wave ...
