rotating star
Définition(s)
- A star that has a non-zero angular velocity. In a rotating star, the centrifugal forces reduce the effective gravity according to the latitude and also introduce deviations from sphericity. In a rotating star, the equations of stellar structure need to be modified. The usual spherical coordinates must be replaced by new coordinates characterizing the equipotentials. (An Etymological Dictionary of Astronomy and Astrophysics, by M. Heydari-Malayeri, https://dictionary.obspm.fr/index.php?formSearchTextfield=rotating+star&formSubmit=Search&showAll=1)
