The resulting nonlinear equations of motion are probed in the search for dynamical instabilities triggered by the relative motion of the superfluids that could be of potential relevance to observational features of neutron stars. Through linear analysis, the origin and expected growth of the instabilities is explored for varying nuclear-matter density. Differently from previous findings, the dispersion of linear excitations in our model shows rotonic structures below the pair-breaking energy threshold, which lies at the origin of the dynamical instabilities and could eventually lead to emergent vorticity along with modulations of the superfluid density.12 p.application/pdfeng(c) American Physical Society, 2021Astrofísica nuclearSuperfluïdesaEstels de neutronsNuclear astrophysicsSuperfluidityNeutron starsinfo:eu-repo/semantics/article7163702025-06-05info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
