	Let's continue to examine a collection of Lagrangian fluid elements that are orbiting in an (axisymmetric) oblate-spheroidal potential with flattening "q."

==Overview of Dissertation==
[https://digitalcommons.lsu.edu/gradschool_disstheses/6940/ Paul Fisher's (1999) doctoral dissertation] (accessible via the LSU Digital Commons) is titled, ''Nonaxisymmetric Equilibrium Models for Gaseous Galaxy Disks.'' Its abstract reads, in part:

<table border="0" align="center" width="80%" cellpadding="3"><tr><td align="left">
<font color="darkgreen">Three-dimensional hydrodynamic simulations show that, in the absence of self-gravity, an axisymmetric, gaseous galaxy disk whose angular momentum vector is initially tipped at an angle, <math>~i_0</math>, to the symmetry axis of a fixed spheroidal dark matter halo potential does not settle to the equatorial plane of the halo. Instead, the disk settles to a plane that is tipped at an angle, <math>~\alpha = \tan^{-1}[q^2 \tan i_0]</math>, to the equatorial plane of the halo, where <math>~q</math> is the axis ratio of the halo equipotential surfaces. The equilibrium configuration to which the disk settles appears to be flat but it exhibits distinct nonaxisymmetric features. .</font>

Let's continue to examine a collection of Lagrangian fluid elements that are orbiting in an (axisymmetric) oblate-spheroidal potential with flattening "q." But rather than adopting the Richstone potential, we will consider the [[User:Tohline/Apps/MaclaurinSpheroids#Gravitational_Potential|potential generated inside an homogeneous (''i.e.,'' Maclaurin) spheroid]] whose eccentricity is, <math>~e = (1 - q^2)^{1 / 2}</math>, namely,

</p>
[<b>[[User:Tohline/Appendix/References#ST83|<font color="red">ST83</font>]]</b>], §7.3, p. 169, Eq. (7.3.1)

where, the coefficients <math>~A_1</math>, <math>~A_3</math>, and <math>~I_\mathrm{BT}</math> are functions only of the spheroid's eccentricity. What does the potential field look like from the perspective of a particle/fluid-element whose orbital angular momentum vector is tipped at an angle, <math>~i_0</math>, to the symmetry axis of the oblate-spheroidal potential? Presumably the potential is "observed" to vary with position around the orbit as though the underlying potential is non-axisymmetric.
