mpg-Movie (2.39 MB)Still from a movie showing the simulation of a stationary, rapidly rotating neutron star model in full general relativity, for 3 rotational periods (shown are iso-density contours, in dimensionless units). The stationary shape is well preserved at a resolution of 1293. Simulation by Font, Goodale, Iyer, Miller, Rezzolla, Seidel, Stergioulas, Suen, and Tobias. Visualization by W. Benger and L. Rezzolla at the Albert Einstein Institute, Golm [1]. (For video see appendix)
