On the eccentricity behaviour of radiating slowly rotating bodies in general relativity

Abstract

On the eccentricity behaviour of radiating slowly rotating bodies (Núñez, Luis; Hernández, Hector; Herrera, Luis; Percoco, Umberto)

Abstract

We study different models of radiating slowly rotating bodies up to the first order in the angular velocity. It is shown that up to this order the evolution of the eccentricity is highly model-dependent even for very compact objects.
