Figure 5: Frequencies of several axisymmetric modes along a sequence of rapidly rotating relativistic
polytropes of , in the Cowling approximation. On the horizontal axis, the angular velocity
of each model is scaled to the angular velocity of the model at the mass-shedding limit. Lower
order modes are weakly affected by rapid rotation, while higher order modes show apparent mode
intersections. (Figure 10 of Font, Dimmelmeier, Gupta, and Stergioulas [104].)
