Sectoral inertial mode of a slowly rotating barotropic star ($W=z{R}^m,\sigma =2\Omega /(m+1)$)

For spherical mass density in the anelastic approximation for a rotating barotropic star, the displayed pressure amplitude gives velocity proportional to $(-iz{R}^{m-1},z{R}^{m-1},i{R}^m)$. This velocity is divergence free and tangent to spherical shells, so its mass-weighted divergence vanishes for every spherical mass density profile. It is an inertial r-mode driven by Coriolis acceleration; with phase $e^{i\omega t+im\varphi }$ its inertial frequency is $\omega =-(m-1)(m+2)\Omega /(m+1)$.
