Relativistic homologous collapse beyond nuclear density and the theory of supernova shock formation

The nonlinear behaviour of short-wavelength perturbations in the two-fluid cosmic-ray hydrodynamical model is examined. We show that such a perturbation leads to shock formation and derive the appropriate wave equation. We show that a discontinuous perturbation incident on a weak cosmic-ray shock destabilizes, in a time-asymptotic sense, the shock.

AbstractGlobular clusters produce orders of magnitude more millisecond pulsars per unit mass than the Galactic disk. Since the first cluster pulsar was uncovered 20 years ago, at least 138 have been identified – most of which are binary millisecond pulsars. Because their origins involve stellar encounters, many of the systems are exotic objects that would never be observed in the Galactic disk. Examples include pulsar-main sequence binaries, extremely rapid rotators (including the current record holder), and millisecond pulsars in highly eccentric orbits. These systems are allowing new probes of the interstellar medium, the equation of state of material at supra-nuclear density, the masses of neutron stars, and globular cluster dynamics.
