Free Energy of BiPolytrope with (nc, ne) = (5, 1)

Free Energy
of
Bipolytropes

(nc, ne) = (5, 1)

Here we present a specific example of the equilibrium structure of a bipolytrope as determined from a free-energy analysis. The example is a bipolytrope whose core has a polytropic index, nc=5, and whose envelope has a polytropic index, ne=1. The details presented here build upon an overview of the free energy of bipolytropes that has been presented elsewhere.  
 
 
 
 

Preliminaries

Mass Profile

The Core

The core has nc=5γc=1+1/nc=6/5. Referring to the general relation as established in our accompanying overview, and using ρ0 to represent the central density, we can write,

(For0xq)       Mr

=

Mtot(νq3)(ρ0ρ¯core)eq0x3[ρ(x)ρ0]corex2dx.

Drawing on the derivation of detailed force-balance models of (nc,ne)=(5,1) bipolytropes, the density profile throughout the core is,

[ρ(ξ)ρ0]core

=

(1+13ξ2)5/2,

where the dimensionless radial coordinate is,

ξ

=

[Gρ04/5Kc]1/2(2π3)1/2r.

Switching to the normalizations that have been adopted in the broad context of our discussion of configurations in virial equilibrium and inserting the adiabatic index of the core (γc=6/5) into all normalization parameters, we have,

Rnorm=[(GKc)Mtot2γ]1/(43γ)

Rnorm=(G5Mtot4Kc5)1/2,

ρnorm=34π[Kc3G3Mtot2]1/(43γ)

ρnorm=34π(Kc3G3Mtot2)5/2.

Hence, we can rewrite,

ξ

=

(rRnorm)(ρ0ρnorm)2/5[GKc]1/2(2π3)1/2Rnormρnorm2/5

 

=

r*(ρ0*)2/5[GKc]1/2(2π3)1/2(G5Mtot4Kc5)1/2(34π)2/5(Kc3G3Mtot2)

 

=

r*(ρ0*)2/5[(2π3)5(34π)4]1/10=r*(ρ0*)2/5[π233]1/10.

Now, following the same approach as was used in our introductory discussion and appreciating that our aim here is to redefine the coordinate, ξ, in terms of normalized parameters evaluated in the equilibrium configuration, we will set,

r*

xχeq;

ρ0*

[ρ0ρ¯]core(ρ¯coreρnorm)=[ρ0ρ¯]coreνMtot/(q3Redge3)eqMtot/Rnorm3=νq3[ρ0ρ¯]coreχeq3.

Then we can set,

ξ

=

(3aξ)1/2x,

in which case,

[ρ(x)ρ0]core

=

(1+aξx2)5/2,

where the coefficient,

(3aξ)1/2

χeq[νq3(ρ0ρ¯)coreχeq3]2/5(π233)1/10=χeq1/5[νq3(ρ0ρ¯)core]eq2/5(π233)1/10

aξ

13{χeq1/5[νq3(ρ0ρ¯)core]eq2/5(π233)1/10}2=χeq2/5[νq3(ρ0ρ¯)core]eq4/5(π2336)1/5.

We therefore have,

Mr|core

=

Mtot[νq3(ρ0ρ¯)core]eq0x3(1+aξx2)5/2x2dx

 

=

Mtot[νq3(ρ0ρ¯)core]eq[x3(1+aξx2)3/2].

Note that, when xq, Mr|coreMcore=νMtot. Hence, this last expression gives,

νMtot

=

Mtot[νq3(ρ0ρ¯)core]eq[q3(1+aξq2)3/2]

[(ρ0ρ¯)core]eq

=

(1+aξq2)3/2.

Hence, finally,

Mr|core

=

νMtot(x3q3)[1+aξx21+aξq2]3/2;

and, after the equilibrium radius, χeq, has been determined from the free-energy analysis, the coefficient, aξ, can be determined via the relation,

χeq2

=

(π2336)(νq3)4(1+aξq2)6aξ5.

MORE USEFUL:

Letting, ξ/3,

aξ

=

(iq)2,

𝔣~Mcore

=

(ρ¯ρc)core=(1+i2)3/2.

The Envelope

The envelope has ne=1γe=1+1/ne=2. Again, referring to the general relation as established in our accompanying overview, and continuing to use ρ0 to represent the central density, we can write,

(Forqx1)       Mr

=

Mtot{ν+(1ν1q3)xix3[ρ(x)ρ¯]envx2dx}.

Drawing on the derivation of detailed force-balance models of (nc,ne)=(5,1) bipolytropes, the density profile throughout the envelope is,

[ρ(η)ρ0]env

=

A(μeμc)θi5[sin(ηB)η],

where definitions of the constants A and B are given in an accompanying table of parameter values, and the dimensionless radial coordinate is,

η

=

[Gρ04/5Kc]1/2(μeμc)θi2(2π)1/2r.

Using the same radial and mass-density normalizations as defined, above, for the core, we can write,

η

=

r*(ρ0*)2/5[GKc]1/2(μeμc)θi2(2π)1/2Rnormρnorm2/5

 

=

r*(ρ0*)2/5(34π)2/5(μeμc)θi2(2π)1/2.

Next, we set,

r*

xχeq;

ρ0*

[ρ0ρ¯]env(ρ¯envρnorm)=[ρ0ρ¯]env(1ν)Mtot/[(1q3)Redge3]eqMtot/Rnorm3=1ν1q3(ρ0ρ¯)envχeq3.

Hence, we can write,

η=bηx,

where,

bη

χeq1/5[1ν1q3(ρ0ρ¯)env]2/5(34π)2/5(μeμc)θi2(2π)1/2.

In which case,

[ρ(x)ρ0]env

=

A(μeμc)θi5[sin(bηxB)bηx],

so,

Mr|env

=

Mtot{ν+[(1ν1q3)(ρ0ρ¯)env]eqqx3A(μeμc)θi5[sin(bηxB)bηx]x2dx}

 

=

νMtot+Mtot[(1ν1q3)(ρ0ρ¯)env]eq(μeμc)3Aθi5bηqxsin(bηxB)xdx

 

=

νMtot+Mtot[(1ν1q3)(ρ0ρ¯)env]eq(μeμc)3Aθi5bη[sin(Bbηx)+bηxcos(Bbηx)bη2]qx

 

=

νMtot+Mtot[(1ν1q3)(ρ0ρ¯)env]eq(μeμc)3Aθi5bη3[C1sin(Bbηx)xbηcos(Bbηx)],

where, C1 is a constant obtained by evaluating the integral at the interface (x=xi=q), specifically,

C1sin(Bbηq)+bηqcos(Bbηq).

Now, this expression can be significantly simplified by drawing on earlier results of this section as well as on attributes of the corresponding detailed force-balanced model. First, independent of the specific density profiles that define the structure of a bipolytrope, the ratio of the mean densities of the two structural regions is,

ρ¯eρ¯c

=

q3(1ν)ν(1q3).

Hence the bracketed pre-factor of the second term of the expression for Mr|env may be rewritten as,

[(1ν1q3)(ρ0ρ¯)env]eq

=

[νq3(ρ0ρ¯)core]eq.

But, from the above derivation of the mass profile in the core, we know that,

[(ρ0ρ¯)core]eq

=

(1+aξq2)3/2=(1+13ξi2)3/2=θi3,

where the final step comes from knowledge of the expression for θi drawn from the detailed force-balanced model (see, for example, the associated Parameter Values table). Hence, we can write,

Mr|env

=

νMtot+Mtot(μeμc)3νAθi2(bηq)3[C1sin(Bbηx)xbηcos(Bbηx)],

and note that the expression for the coefficient, bη, becomes simpler as well, specifically,

bη

=

χeq1/5(34π)2/5(μeμc)θi2(2π)1/2(νq3θi3)2/5

χeq

=

bη5(34π23)1/2(μeμc)5ν2θi4q6.

Next — and, again, drawing from knowledge of the internal structure of the detailed force-balanced model, in particular, realizing that,

bηq=ηi=31/2(μeμc)θi2ξi,

— note that the constant, C1, can be rewritten as,

C1

=

bηqcos(bηqB)sin(bηqB)

 

=

ηicos(ηiB)sin(ηiB)

 

=

ηi2A(dϕdη)i=1A(μeμc)231/2θi4ξi3

 

=

1A(μeμc)231/2θi4[31/2(μeμc)1θi2bηq]3

 

=

13Aθi2(μeμc)1(bηq)3,

which means,

Mr|env

=

νMtotνMtot{11C1[sin(Bbηx)+xbηcos(Bbηx)]}

 

=

νMtotC1[sin(Bbηx)+xbηcos(Bbηx)].

Gravitational Potential Energy

The Core

Borrowing from our derivation, above, of the mass distribution in this type of bipolytrope, the expression for the gravitational potential energy in the core that has been outlined in our accompanying overview may be written as,

Wgrav|core

=

Enormχ1[νq3(ρ0ρ¯)core]eq0q3x[Mr(x)Mtot]core[ρ(x)ρ0]coredx

 

=

Enormχ1[νq3(1+aξq2)3/2]eq0q3x{ν(x3q3)[1+aξx21+aξq2]3/2}(1+aξx2)5/2dx

 

=

Enormχ1[3(νq3)2(1+aξq2)3]eq0qx4(1+aξx2)4dx

 

=

Enormχ1[3(νq3)2(1+aξq2)3]eq{aξ1/2q(3aξ2q48aξq23)+3(aξq2+1)3tan1(aξ1/2q)48aξ5/2(aξq2+1)3}

 

=

Enormχ1[(324)aξ5/2(νq3)2(1+aξq2)3]eq[aξ1/2q(aξ2q483aξq21)(aξq2+1)3+tan1(aξ1/2q)].

MORE USEFUL:

χ[WgravEnorm]core

=

[(324)(qi)5(νq3)2(1+i2)3]eq[i(i483i21)(i2+1)3+tan1i]

 

=

35[(νq3)2(1+i2)3]eq(524)(qi)5[i(i483i21)(i2+1)3+tan1i].

But, also from our above discussion of the mass profile, we can write,

aξ5/2(νq3)2(1+aξq2)3

=

χeq(2336π)1/2.

Hence,

(WgravEnorm)core

=

χeqχ(3825π)1/2[aξ1/2q(aξ2q483aξq21)(aξq2+1)3+tan1(aξ1/2q)].

After making the substitution, (aξ1/2q)xi, this expression agrees with a result for the dimensionless energy, Wcore*, derived by Tohline in the context of detailed force-balanced bipolytropes.

The Envelope

Again, borrowing from our derivation, above, of the mass distribution in this type of bipolytrope, the expression for the gravitational potential energy in the envelope that has been outlined in our accompanying overview may be written as,

(WgravEnorm)env

=

χ1[(1ν1q3)(ρ0ρ¯)env]eqq13x[Mr(x)Mtot]env[ρ(x)ρ0]envdx

 

=

χ1[νq3θi3]q13x{νC1[sin(Bbηx)+xbηcos(Bbηx)]}{A(μeμc)θi5[sin(bηxB)bηx]}dx

 

=

χ1(μeμc)[3ν2Aθi2bηq3]1C1q1[xbηcos(bηxB)sin(bηxB)]sin(bηxB)dx

 

=

χ1(μeμc)[3ν2Aθi2bηq3][3Aθi2(μeμc)(bηq)3]q1[xbηcos(bηxB)sin(bηxB)]sin(bηxB)dx

 

=

χ1(μeμc)2[32A2bη4](ν2θi4q6)q1[sin(bηxB)xbηcos(bηxB)]sin(bηxB)dx.

But we also know, from above, that,

χeq=bη5(34π23)1/2(μeμc)5ν2θi4q6

        

ν2θi4q6=χeqbη5(2334π)1/2(μeμc)5.

So we have,

(WgravEnorm)env

=

χeqχ(μeμc)3(23π)1/2A2bηq1[sin(bηxB)xbηcos(bηxB)]sin(bηxB)dx.


The integral can be broken into two separate parts:

q1sin2(bηxB)dx

=

14bη{2bηxsin[2(bηxB)]}q1,

and,

q1xbηcos(bηxB)sin(bηxB)dx

=

18bη{2bηxcos[2(bηxB)]sin[2(bηxB)]}q1.

(Note: We have dropped integration constants that might result from carrying out an indefinite integral because such constants would disappear upon application of our specified limits of integration.) When added together, they give,

q1dx

=

18bη{2bηxcos[2(bηxB)]3sin[2(bηxB)]+4bηx}q1

 

=

18bη{2bηx[12sin2(bηxB)]3sin[2(bηxB)]+4bηx}q1

 

=

18bη[6bηx3sin[2(bηxB)]4bηxsin2(bηxB)]q1.

Hence,

(WgravEnorm)env

=

χeqχ(μeμc)3(123π)1/2A2[6bηx3sin[2(bηxB)]4bηxsin2(bηxB)]q1.

This expression matches in detail the expression for the gravitational potential energy of the envelope derived in the context of our derivation of detailed force-balanced models of this bipolytrope.

Thermodynamic Energy Reservoir

The Core

From our introductory discussion of the free energy of bipolytropes, the energy contained in the core's thermodynamic reservoir may be written as,

(𝔖AEnorm)core

=

23(γc1)(χχeq)33γc[2πPicχ3Pnorm]eq[q3score],

where,

q3score

0q3[1pc(x)1pc(q)]x2dx,

defines the relevant integral over the core's pressure distribution. According to our derivation of the properties of detailed force-balance (nc,ne)=(5,1) bipolytropes — see also the relevant derivations in our accompanying overview — in this case the pressure throughout the core is defined by the dimensionless function,

P*Pcore(ξ)P0

=

(1+13ξ2)3,

1pc(x)=Pcore(x)P0

=

(1+aξx2)3,

where, aξ is defined above in connection with our derivation of the mass profile. The desired integral over this pressure distribution therefore gives,

q3score

=

3(1+aξq2)30qx2dx(1+aξx2)3

 

=

3(1+aξq2)3{tan1[aξ1/2q]23aξ3/2+q23aξ(aξq2+1)q22aξ(aξq2+1)2}

 

=

323aξ3/2(1+aξq2)3{tan1[aξ1/2q]+aξ1/2q(aξq2+1)2aξ1/2q(aξq2+1)2}

 

=

323aξ3/2(1+aξq2)3[tan1[aξ1/2q]aξ1/2q(1aξq2)(1+aξq2)2].

Next, let's examine the factor in square brackets with an "eq" subscript. From our derivation of the properties of detailed force-balance (nc,ne)=(5,1) bipolytropes, we know that,

Pic=Kcρ06/5(1+13ξi2)3,

and,

χeq=(RedgeRnorm)eq=1q(riRnorm)eq=1q[Kc1/2G1/2ρ02/5Rnorm](32π)1/2ξi.

Hence, the relevant factor may be rewritten as,

2πPicχeq3Pnorm

=

2π[Kcρ06/5Pnorm](1+13ξi2)3{1q[Kc1/2G1/2ρ02/5Rnorm](32π)1/2ξi}3

 

=

(332π)1/2[Kc5/2G3/2PnormRnorm3](1+13ξi2)3(ξiq)3

 

=

(362π)1/2(1+aξq2)3aξ3/2,

where, the last expression has been obtained by employing the substitution, defined above, ξi=(3aξ)1/2q. Finally, then, we have,

(𝔖AEnorm)core

=

23(γc1)(χχeq)33γc{(3827π)1/2[tan1[aξ1/2q]aξ1/2q(1aξq2)(1+aξq2)2]}.

As it should, the term inside the curly brackets precisely matches the analytic expression for the dimensionless thermal energy of the core, Score*, that has been derived elsewhere in conjunction with our discussion of the detailed force-balanced structure of this bipolytrope.


The Envelope

Similarly, the energy contained in the envelope's thermodynamic reservoir may be written as,

(𝔖AEnorm)env

=

23(γe1)(χχeq)33γe(PiePic)[2πPicχ3Pnorm]eq[(1q3)senv],

where,

(1q3)senv

q13[1pe(x)]x2dx,

defines the relevant integral over the envelope's pressure distribution. According to our derivation of the properties of detailed force-balance (nc,ne)=(5,1) bipolytropes — see also the relevant derivations in our accompanying overview — the pressure throughout the envelope is defined by the dimensionless function,

P*Penv(η)P0

=

θi6ϕ2(η)=θi6(Aη)2sin2(ηB),

1pe(x)Penv(x)Pie

=

(PicPie)(P0Pic)Penv(x)P0

 

=

(PicPie)(θi6)θi6(Abηx)2sin2(bηxB),

 

=

(PicPie)(Abη)2sin2(bηxB)x2,

where, bη has been defined above in connection with our derivation of the envelope's mass profile. The desired integral over this pressure distribution therefore gives,

(1q3)senv

=

3(PicPie)(Abη)2q1sin2(bηxB)dx

 

=

34(PicPie)(A2bη3)[2bηxsin[2(bηxB)]]q1,

where, as before, we have dropped the integration constant because it cancels upon insertion of the specified integration limits. Therefore, we have,

(𝔖AEnorm)env

=

23(γe1)(χχeq)33γe[2πPicχ3Pnorm]eq34(A2bη3)[2bηxsin[2(bηxB)]]q1.

Now, drawing from our above derivation steps and discussion, we know that,

bη

=

31/2(μeμc)θi2ξiq,

and

2πPicχeq3Pnorm

=

(362π)1/2(1+aξq2)3aξ3/2=(332π)1/2(θi2ξiq)3.

Finally, then, we can write,

(𝔖AEnorm)env

=

23(γe1)(χχeq)33γe{34A2[(332π)1/2(θi2ξiq)3][31/2(μeμc)θi2ξiq]3[2bηxsin[2(bηxB)]]q1}

 

=

23(γe1)(χχeq)33γe{(μeμc)3A2(3225π)1/2[2bηxsin[2(bηxB)]]q1} .

The term inside the curly brackets precisely matches the analytic expression for the dimensionless thermal energy of the envelope, Senv*, that has been derived elsewhere in conjunction with our discussion of the detailed force-balanced structure of this bipolytrope.

Virial Theorem

As has been shown in our accompanying overview, the condition for equilibrium based on a free-energy analysis — that is, the virial theorem — is,

𝒜

=

coreχeq43γc+envχeq43γe

 

=

4π3[PiRedge4GMtot2]eq[q3score+(1q3)senv].

For (nc,ne)=(0,0) bipolytropes, the relevant coefficient functions are,

𝒜

=

15(ν2q)f,

q3score

=

q3(P0Pic)[135q2bξ],

(1q3)senv

=

(1q3)+(P0Pie)25q5𝔉bξ,

where,

f

1+52(ρeρc)(1q21)+(ρeρc)2[1q51+52(11q2)],

𝔉

52(ρeρc)1q5[(2q2+3q3q5)+35(ρeρc)(1+5q25q3+q5)],

PicP0

=

1pc(q)=1bξq2,

bξ

(323π)GMtot2P0Redge4(νq3)2.

Plugging these expressions into the equilibrium condition shown above, and setting the interface pressures equal to one another, gives,

15(ν2q)f

=

4π3[PiRedge4GMtot2]eq{q3(P0Pi)[135q2bξ]+(1q3)+(P0Pi)25q5𝔉bξ}

 

=

4π3[P0Redge4GMtot2]eq{q3[135q2bξ]+(1q3)(1bξq2)+25q5𝔉bξ}

 

=

4π3[P0Redge4GMtot2]eq{1bξ[35q5+q2(1q3)25q5𝔉]}

 

=

4π3[P0Redge4GMtot2]eq[1bξq2+25q5(1+𝔉)]bξ

 

=

12[1bξq2+25q5(1+𝔉)](νq3)2

1bξ

=

25q5f+[q225q5(1+𝔉)]

(23π3)P0Redge4GMtot2(q3ν)2

=

q2+25q5(f1𝔉)

P0Redge4GMtot2

=

(323π)(νq3)2{q2+(ρeρc)[2q2(1q)+(ρeρc)(13q2+2q3)]}.

This exactly matches the equilibrium relation that was derived from our detailed force-balance analysis of (nc,ne)=(0,0) bipolytropes.
