Relativistic Stars: Structure, Stability, And Oscillations

Scientific paper

It has long been known that in general relativity the centrifugal force on an element in a rotating star involves the frequency of the star relative to the frequency at which the local inertial frame is dragged by the rotation. Intuitively, one would expect that this would increase the critical frequency at which rotation disrupts the star. Our analysis shows the opposite to be true and gives theoretical underpinning to a commonly used empirical formula for the Kepler frequency of a rotating star.
