Radial Oscillations in (nc,ne) = (5,1) Bipolytropes
Logically, this chapter extends the discussion — specifically the subsection titled, Try Again — found in the "Ramblings" chapter in which we introduced a total-mass-based renormalization of models along sequences of bipolytropes.

Now, for the envelope we find that,
Example Models Along BiPolytrope Sequence 0.3100
For the case of and , we consider here the examination of models with three relatively significant values of the core/envelope interface:
- Model D : Approximate location along the sequence of the model with the maximum fractional core radius.
- Model C : Approximate location along the sequence of the onset of fundamental-mode instability.
- Model A : Exact location along the sequence of the model with the maximum fractional core mass.
Model C
Here we examine a discrete representation of a model along the sequence whose core/envelope interface is located a .
