However, this rheology was shown to be ill-posed in the mathematical sense for a large range of parameters, notably in the slow and fast flow limits \\citep{Barker2015}. In this rapid communication, we extend the stability analysis to compressible flows. We show that compressibility regularizes mostly the equations, making them well-posed for all parameters, at the condition that sufficient dissipation is associated with volume changes.
