Abstract:
The linear stability analysis of the steady flow is performed in a rapidly rotating sphere with strong precession.
It is shown that the localized mode destabilizing the boundary-layer flow
determines the stability boundary, giving the asymptote, $Po\propto Re^{2/3}$,
which is consistent with the results obtained by direct numerical simulation.
