Rethink Handling of n = 1 Envelope

Solution Steps

Drawing from an accompanying discussion

  • Step 1: Choose nc and ne.
  • Step 2: Adopt boundary conditions at the center of the core (θ=1 and dθ/dξ=0 at ξ=0), then solve the Lane-Emden equation to obtain the solution, θ(ξ), and its first derivative, dθ/dξ throughout the core; the radial location, ξ=ξs, at which θ(ξ) first goes to zero identifies the natural surface of an isolated polytrope that has a polytropic index nc.
  • Step 3 Choose the desired location, 0<ξi<ξs, of the outer edge of the core.
  • Step 4: Specify Kc and ρ0; the structural profile of, for example, ρ(r), P(r), and Mr(r) is then obtained throughout the core — over the radial range, 0ξξi and 0rri — via the relations shown in the 2nd column of Table 1.
  • Step 5: Specify the ratio μe/μc and adopt the boundary condition, ϕi=1; then use the interface conditions as rearranged and presented in Table 3 to determine, respectively:
    • The gas density at the base of the envelope, ρe;
    • The polytropic constant of the envelope, Ke, relative to the polytropic constant of the core, Kc;
    • The ratio of the two dimensionless radial parameters at the interface, ηi/ξi;
    • The radial derivative of the envelope solution at the interface, (dϕ/dη)i.
  • Step 6: The last sub-step of solution step 5 provides the boundary condition that is needed — in addition to our earlier specification that ϕi=1 — to derive the desired particular solution, ϕ(η), of the Lane-Emden equation that is relevant throughout the envelope; knowing ϕ(η) also provides the relevant structural first derivative, dϕ/dη, throughout the envelope.
  • Step 7: The surface of the bipolytrope will be located at the radial location, η=ηs and r=R, at which ϕ(η) first drops to zero.
  • Step 8: The structural profile of, for example, ρ(r), P(r), and Mr(r) is then obtained throughout the envelope — over the radial range, ηiηηs and rirR — via the relations provided in the 3rd column of Table 1.

Drawing from the accompanying Table 1, we have …

From an accompanying discussion of (nc,ne)=(5,1) bipolytropes, we know that the solution to the pair of Lane-Emden equations is …

θ(ξ)=[1+13ξ2]1/2θi=[1+13ξi2]1/2,

dθdξ=ξ3[1+13ξ2]3/2(dθdξ)i=ξi3[1+13ξi2]3/2;

and,

ϕ=A[sin(ηB)η],

dϕdη=Aη2[ηcos(ηB)sin(ηB)].

Adopting the same normalizations as before, we have,

Interface Conditions

Now, at the core-envelope interface …

  • ρ*|c=θi5
  • ρ*|e=(ρe/ρ0)ϕi
  • By choice, ϕi=1
  • ρ*|eμc=ρ*|cμe

Hence,

ρeρ0 = ρ*|e=ρ*|c(μeμc)=(μeμc)θi5.

Also, setting the value of P* equal across the boundary gives us,

θi6 =

[Keρe2Kcρ06/5]ϕi2=ρ04/5(KeKc)(μeμc)2θi10

ρ04/5(KeKc)

=

(μeμc)2θi4

As a result, throughout the envelope,

P* =

(ρeρ0)2(μeμc)2θi4ϕ2=θi6ϕ2;

r* =

(2π)1/2[ρ04/5KeKc]1/2η=(2π)1/2[(μeμc)1θi2]η;

2(2π)1/2[ρeρ0](ρ04/5KeKc)3/2(η2dϕdη)=2(2π)1/2[(μeμc)θi5][(μeμc)2θi4]3/2(η2dϕdη)

 

=

(2π)1/2(μeμc)2θi1(η2dϕdη).

In summary, then,

=

(2π)1/2(μeμc)2θi1{A[sin(ηB)ηcos(ηB)]}

This matches our earlier derivation. Remember, as well, that ϕi=1, that is to say,

A = [ηisin(ηiB)].

Suppose we use η as the primary abscissa. Throughout the envelope, for various values of η, we set

ρ*=Qρ[sin(ηB)η],M*=Qm[sin(ηB)ηcos(ηB)],ξ=Qrη

where,

Qρ A(μeμc)θi5
Qm A(2π)1/2(μeμc)2θi1
Qr 31/2[(μeμc)1θi2]

Note as well that,

q ξiξs=ξiQrηs;
ν Mr*|coreMr*|tot=sin(ηiB)ηicos(ηiB)ηs.

Earlier Example

In our earlier analysis, we determined that the following relations hold in an equilibrium bipolytrope.

Keep in mind that, once μe/μc and ξi have been specified, other parameter values at the interface are:

θi

=

(1+13ξi2)1/2,

ηi

=

(μeμc)3θi2ξi,

Λi

=

1ηi+(dϕdη)i=(μeμc)113ξiθi2ξi3,

A

=

ηi(1+Λi2)1/2,

B

=

ηiπ2+tan1(Λi),

ηs

=

B+π.

As a test case, let's draw from the accompanying B2 model for which, μe/μc=0.25 and ξi=2.4782510 and …

θi ηi Λi A B ηs   Qρ Qm Qr
0.572857 0.352159 1.408807 0.608404 -0.265127 2.876465   0.00938349 13.558308 7.0373055

The following pair of plots show how the normalized density, ρ*, and normalized integrated mass, Mr*, varies over the radial-coordinate range, 0η3, for both the core description and the envelope description for Model B2. Both plots present the same four curves except, in the "first plot", the density has been magnified by a factor of 35 to aid in visualizing the shapes of the curves. In the "first plot" the maximum ordinate value is 40, which comfortably accommodates the maximum value of both mass curves. In the "second plot" the maximum ordinate value is 0.09, which permits us to zoom in on the behavior of the (unmagnified) density curves in the vicinity of the core-envelope interface.


More specifically, here are the expressions that were used to generate each of the four curves (in both plots).

Grey dotted curve: After setting ξ=Qrη for each value of η over the specified range …

ρ*|core = [1+ξ23]5/2.

Orange curve: After setting ξ=Qrη for each value of η over the specified range …

Mr*|core = (6π)1/2ξ3[1+13ξ2]3/2.

Dark-blue dotted curve: Acknowledging that B=0.265127 for each value of η over the specified range …

ρ*|env = Qρ[sin(ηB)η].

Red curve: Acknowledging that B=0.265127 for each value of η over the specified range …

Mr*|env = Qm[sin(ηB)ηcos(ηB)].
Model B2 — first plot
First Plot
Model B2 — second plot
Second Plot

Things to notice:

  1. Because B0 and ρ*|env is proportional to η1, the envelope-density (dark-blue dotted) curve shoots up to infinity as η0. Nevertheless, as the red curve in the "first plot" shows, the integrated envelope mass, Mr*|env, is well behaved; it goes to Qmsin(B)=3.5527 as η0.
  2. As seen in the "second plot," the envelope-density (dark-blue dotted curve) first goes to zero when ηηs=π+B=2.876465. As the red curve in the "first plot" shows, this is also where Mr*|env reaches its maximum value, Qmηs=39.00000.
  3. The gray-dotted curve in the "first plot" shows how the "core density" varies over the entire examined range. At the center — where η0 and, hence, ξ0 — the core density is unity; as η climbs, the core density drops smoothly toward zero, but always remains positive.
  4. As the orange curve in the "first plot" shows, the integrated core mass is zero at η=0; as η increases, the integrated core mass smoothly increases, heading toward a limiting value of Mr*|core33/2(6/π)1/2=7.18096 as η and, hence, ξ.
  5. As the "first plot" shows, the (red) curve representing the envelope mass intersects the (orange) curve representing the envelope mass twice. Moving from the center, outward, the first intersection occurs at the Model B2 core-envelope interface, where η=ηi=0.352159 and ξ=ξi=2.47825. As can be seen in the "second plot," the two "density" curves do not intersect at the interface. However, by design and construction, at the core-envelope interface the value of ρ*|env is precisely a factor of μe/μc=0.25 smaller than ρ*|core; in the "second plot," the vertical red line-segment highlights this discontinuous drop in the density at the interface.

Things to notice:

Obtain ξ from η

Again, let's set μe/μc=0.25 but this time specify the value of ηi and work backwards — through the definition of θi — to determine ξi. Specifically, we find that,

θi2ξi

=

(3ξi3+ξi2)=(μeμc)131/2ηi

0

=

33c0ξi+ξi2

where, c0(μe/μc)31/2ηi1. That is,

2ξi

=

3c0±[32c0212]1/2

NOTE: Real root implies, ηi32(μeμc); and, at this limit, (ξi)±=3.

TEST:   As in Model B2, set μe/μc=0.25 and set ηi=0.352159. Then, c0=1.22959405 and, (ξi)+=2.47825101 while (ξi)=1.210531136. The value for (ξi)+ matches the value for Model B2.

Keep in mind that, once μe/μc and ξi have been specified, other parameter values at the interface are:

θi

=

(1+13ξi2)1/2,

ηi

=

(μeμc)3θi2ξi,

Redo Interface Conditions

Now, at the core-envelope interface …

  • ρ*|c=θi5
  • ρ*|e=(ρe/ρ0)ϕi
  • Leave specification of ϕi arbitrary
  • ρ*|eμc=ρ*|cμe

Hence,

ρeρ0 = ρ*|eϕi=ρ*|cϕi(μeμc)=(μeμc)θi5ϕi.

Also, setting the value of P* equal across the boundary gives us,

θi6 =

[Keρe2Kcρ06/5]ϕi2=ρ04/5(ρeρ0)2(KeKc)ϕi2=ρ04/5(KeKc)(μeμc)2θi10

As a result, throughout the envelope,
