- Abstract
Differential rotation is an important feature of nonlinear r-modes. We investigate the role of differential rotation in the evolution of compact stars, including its cooling and spin evolution. Both normal neutron stars and strange stars are discussed. The heating effects due to viscous dissipation of the r-mode delay the cooling and spin evolution of compact stars. Especially, slight spin-up and a long time temperature plateaus in the cooling curves of normal neutron stars are found in case of differential rotation. We suggest the spin and cooling evolution should be taken into account synthetically, for the rotation of the star is a possible huge energy source for the thermal evolution of the star.
