Here we construct and analyze the relative stability of a bipolytrope in which the core has an polytropic index and the envelope has an polytropic index.

Introduction & Summary
Here we solve the LAWE numerically (on a uniformly zoned mesh — different for the separate core/envelope regions) using a 2nd-order accurate, implicit integration scheme in which the LAWE is broken into a pair of 1st-order ODEs. These results should be compared against a separate succinct discussion of our analysis obtained from integrating the LAWE in its standard 2nd-order ODE form.

Marginally Unstable Model
Numbers presented in the following table should be compared against our earlier determinations. Various things to note:
As discussed elsewhere — for example, here — when , the radial displacement function for the core — that is, for all — should be given precisely by the expression,
Hence, given that ξi = 1.6639103365 as viewed from the perspective of the core, the magnitude of, and the logarithmic derivative of the radial displacement function should have the values, respectively,
and
As discussed elsewhere — for example, here — we expect,
