Composition temperature-dependent g-modes in superfluid neutron stars


Abstract in English

We demonstrate a possibility of existence of a peculiar temperature-dependent composition $g$-modes in superfluid neutron stars. We calculate the Brunt-V$ddot{rm a}$is$ddot{rm a}$l$ddot{rm a}$ frequency for these modes, as well as their eigenfrequencies. The latter turn out to be rather large, up to $sim 500$ Hz for a chosen model of a neutron star. This result indicates, in particular, that use of the barotropic equation of state may be not a good approximation for calculation of inertial modes even in most rapidly rotating superfluid neutron stars.
