Torsional Oscillations of Relativistic Stars

Authors
Abstract:
We do a systematic search of parameter space by computing crust torsional and global Alfvén modes for various values of the harmonic index l and for various overtones, where we use an extended sample of models of compact stars, varying in mass, high-density equation of state and crust model. As a result, we find excellent agreement between our computed frequencies and observed frequencies in two SGRs.
