Neutron Star Perturbation Theory - Lecture 5

Delve into the intricacies of neutron star perturbation theory in this comprehensive lecture by Nils Andersson from the University of Southampton. Part of the IAGRG School on Gravitation and Cosmology, this 1 hour and 24 minute session explores advanced concepts in gravitational physics and compact object studies. Gain insights into the latest developments in neutron star research, building on the foundations of general relativity and astrophysics. Learn how perturbation theory applies to these extreme cosmic objects and its implications for understanding gravitational waves and strong-field gravity. Suitable for graduate students and researchers in gravitational physics, this lecture contributes to a broader program covering cutting-edge topics in compact object physics, both theoretical and observational.
