A multi-parameter formalism is developed to describe asymmetric binaries in general matter distributions by perturbing around Schwarzschild and reducing metric and fluid perturbations to wave equations similar to the vacuum case.

abstract
One of the most common assumptions in the study of neutron star models and their oscillations is that the pressure is isotopic, however there are arguments that this may not be correct. Thus in the present paper we make a first step towards studying the nonradial oscillations of neutron stars with an anisotropic pressure. We adopt the so-called Cowling approximation where the spacetime metric is kept fixed and the oscillation spectrum for the first few fluid modes is obtained. The effect of the anisotropy on the frequencies is apparent, although with the present results it might be hard to distinguish it from the changes in the frequencies caused by different equations of state.

Axial modes of anisotropic neutron stars show mass-scaled frequency and damping time with nearly universal quadratic dependence on compactness, insensitive to EOS and anisotropy model.
Axial w-mode frequencies in anisotropic neutron stars decrease monotonically with mass, show approximately linear dependence on compactness modified by anisotropy type and strength, and come with empirical fitting expressions for frequency and damping time.
Current and future observations can test whether dark compact objects are Kerr black holes or exotic alternatives, with null results strengthening the black hole paradigm.
