Role of nucleon-nucleon correlation in transport coefficients and gravitational-wave-driven r-mode instability of neutron stars
The thermal conductivity and shear viscosity of dense nuclear matter, along with the corresponding shear viscosity timescale of canonical neutron stars (NSs), are investigated, where the effect of Fermi surface depletion (i.e., the Z-factor effect) induced by the nucleon-nucleon correlation is taken...
