Organizational Index

This index helps organize and summarize the insight that we have gained from our broad investigation into the relative stability of spherically symmetric bipolytropic configurations. The most relevant summary chapter is named, SSC/Stability/BiPolytropes.

Motivation

Schönberg-Chandrasekhar mass limit:

Simpler Systems

Equilibrium Structures

Stability

Normal Fluids

  • Buoyancy: For stability, need gas density to decrease outward. In bipolytropes, this reduces to the requirement that μe/μc1.
  • Convection: For stability, need specific entropy to increase outward; uniform specific entropy is marginally stable.
