Free-Energy Synopsis

All of the self-gravitating configurations considered below have an associated Gibbs-like free-energy that can be expressed analytically as a power-law function of the dimensionless configuration radius, <math>~x</math>. Specifically,

<math>~\mathfrak{G}^*_\mathrm{type}</math>

<math>~-ax^{-1} + b x^{-3/n} + c x^{-3/j} + \mathfrak{G}_0 \, .</math>

Equilibrium Radii and Critical Radii

The first and second (partial) derivatives with respect to <math>~x</math> are, respectively,

<math>~\frac{\partial\mathfrak{G}^*_\mathrm{type}}{\partial x}</math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ax^{-2} - \biggl(\frac{ 3b}{n}\biggr) x^{-3/n -1} -\biggl(\frac{3 c}{j}\biggr) x^{-3/j-1} </math>
	<math>~=</math>	<math>~\frac{1}{x^2} \biggl[ a - \biggl(\frac{ 3b}{n}\biggr) x^{(n-3)/n } -\biggl(\frac{3 c}{j}\biggr) x^{(j-3)/j} \biggr] \, ,</math>
<math>~\frac{\partial^2 \mathfrak{G}^*_\mathrm{type}}{\partial x^2}</math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~-2ax^{-3} + \biggl(\frac{ 3b}{n}\biggr) \biggl( \frac{n+3}{n}\biggr) x^{-3/n -2} + \biggl(\frac{3 c}{j}\biggr)\biggl( \frac{j+3}{j}\biggr) x^{-3/j-2} </math>
	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ \frac{1}{x^3} \biggl\{ \biggl(\frac{ 3b}{n}\biggr) \biggl( \frac{n+3}{n}\biggr) x^{(n-3)/n} + \biggl(\frac{3 c}{j}\biggr)\biggl( \frac{j+3}{j}\biggr) x^{(j-3)/j} -2a\biggr\} \, . </math>

Equilibrium configurations are identified by setting the first derivative to zero. This gives,

<math>~0</math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~a - \biggl(\frac{ 3b}{n}\biggr) x^{(n-3)/n }_\mathrm{eq} -\biggl(\frac{3 c}{j}\biggr) x^{(j-3)/j}_\mathrm{eq} </math>
<math>~\Rightarrow ~~~x^{(n-3)/n }_\mathrm{eq}</math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~\biggl(\frac{n}{ 3b}\biggr) \biggl[a -\biggl(\frac{3 c}{j}\biggr) x^{(j-3)/j}_\mathrm{eq} \biggr] \, .</math>
<math>~\Rightarrow ~~~\frac{ b}{nc}\cdot x^{(n-3)/n }_\mathrm{eq} - \frac{a}{3c} + \frac{1}{j}\cdot x^{(j-3)/j}_\mathrm{eq} </math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ 0 \, .</math>

We conclude, as well, that at this equilibrium radius, the second (partial) derivative assumes the value,

<math>~\biggl[ \frac{\partial^2 \mathfrak{G}^*_\mathrm{type}}{\partial x^2} \biggr]_\mathrm{eq}</math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ \frac{1}{x^3_\mathrm{eq} } \biggl\{ \biggl(\frac{ 3b}{n}\biggr) \biggl( \frac{n+3}{n}\biggr) x^{(n-3)/n} + \biggl(\frac{3 c}{j}\biggr)\biggl( \frac{j+3}{j}\biggr) x^{(j-3)/j} -2a\biggr\}_\mathrm{eq} </math>
	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ \frac{1}{x^3_\mathrm{eq} } \biggl\{ \biggl( \frac{n+3}{n}\biggr) \biggl[a -\biggl(\frac{3 c}{j}\biggr) x^{(j-3)/j}_\mathrm{eq} \biggr] + \biggl(\frac{3 c}{j}\biggr)\biggl( \frac{j+3}{j}\biggr) x^{(j-3)/j}_\mathrm{eq} -2a\biggr\} </math>
	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ \frac{1}{x^3_\mathrm{eq} } \biggl\{ \biggl(\frac{3 c}{j}\biggr) \biggl[ \biggl( \frac{j+3}{j}\biggr) -\biggl( \frac{n+3}{n}\biggr) \biggl] x^{(j-3)/j}_\mathrm{eq} + \biggl( \frac{3-n}{n}\biggr) a\biggr\} \, . </math>

Hence, equilibrium configurations for which the second (as well as first) derivative of the free energy is zero are found at "critical" radii given by the expression,

<math>~0</math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ \biggl(\frac{3 c}{j}\biggr) \biggl[ \biggl( \frac{j+3}{j}\biggr) -\biggl( \frac{n+3}{n}\biggr) \biggl] [x_\mathrm{eq}^{(j-3)/j}]_\mathrm{crit} + \biggl( \frac{3-n}{n}\biggr) a </math>
<math>~\Rightarrow ~~~[x_\mathrm{eq}^{(j-3)/j}]_\mathrm{crit} </math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~\biggl[ \frac{j^2 a(n-3)}{3 c}\biggr] [ n(j+3) - j(n+3) ]^{-1} </math>
	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ \frac{a}{3^2c}\biggl[ \frac{j^2(n-3)}{n-j} \biggr] \, . </math>

Examples

Pressure-Truncated Polytropes

For pressure-truncated polytropes of index <math>~n</math>, we set, <math>~j = -1</math>, in which case,

<math>~\frac{ b}{nc}\cdot x^{(n-3)/n }_\mathrm{eq} - \frac{a}{3c} - x^{4}_\mathrm{eq}</math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~0 \, ;</math>
<math>~\biggl[ \biggl(\frac{3}{4\pi}\biggr) \frac{ M_\mathrm{tot}}{M_\mathrm{SWS}} \biggr]^{(n+1)/n} x^{(n-3)/n }_\mathrm{eq} - \frac{3}{20\pi} \biggl( \frac{n+1}{n}\biggr)\biggl( \frac{M_\mathrm{tot}}{M_\mathrm{SWS}} \biggr)^{2} - x^{4}_\mathrm{eq}</math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~0 \, ;</math>
<math>~x^{(n-3)/n }_\mathrm{eq}</math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~\biggl(\frac{n}{ 3b}\biggr) \biggl[a + 3cx^{4}_\mathrm{eq} \biggr] \, ;</math>
	and
<math>~[x_\mathrm{eq}]_\mathrm{crit} </math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~\biggl[ \frac{a(n-3)}{3^2 c (n+1)} \biggr]^{1/4} \, . </math>

Case M

More specifically, the expression that describes the "Case M" free-energy surface is,

<math>~\mathfrak{G}_{K,M}^* \equiv \frac{\mathfrak{G}_{K,M}}{E_\mathrm{norm}} </math>

<math>~ -3\mathcal{A} \biggl(\frac{R}{R_\mathrm{norm}}\biggr)^{-1} +~ n\mathcal{B} \biggl(\frac{R}{R_\mathrm{norm}}\biggr)^{-3/n} +~ \biggl( \frac{4\pi}{3} \biggr) \frac{P_e}{P_\mathrm{norm}} \biggl(\frac{R}{R_\mathrm{norm}}\biggr)^3 \, . </math>

Hence, we have,

<math>~a</math>	<math>~\equiv</math>	<math>~3\mathcal{A} = \frac{3}{5} \cdot \frac{\tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_W}{\tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_M^2}\, , </math>
<math>~b</math>	<math>~\equiv</math>	<math>~n\mathcal{B} = n\biggl(\frac{4\pi}{3} \biggr)^{-1/n} \frac{\tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_A}{\tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_M^{(n+1)/n}} \, , </math>
<math>~c</math>	<math>~\equiv</math>	<math>~\frac{4\pi}{3}\biggl( \frac{P_e}{P_\mathrm{norm}} \biggr) \, , </math>

where the structural form factors for pressure-truncated polytropes are precisely defined here. Therefore, the statement of virial equilibrium is,

<math>~0 </math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~\frac{ b}{nc}\cdot x^{(n-3)/n }_\mathrm{eq} - \frac{a}{3c} - x^{4}_\mathrm{eq}</math>
<math>~\Rightarrow ~~~ \biggl(\frac{3}{4\pi}\biggr)c x_\mathrm{eq}^4 </math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~\biggl(\frac{3}{4\pi}\biggr) \biggl[ \frac{ b}{n}\cdot x^{(n-3)/n }_\mathrm{eq} - \frac{a}{3} \biggr]</math>
<math>~\Rightarrow ~~~ \biggl(\frac{P_e}{P_\mathrm{norm}}\biggr) x_\mathrm{eq}^4 </math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~\biggl(\frac{3}{4\pi}\biggr) \biggl[ \biggl(\frac{3}{4\pi} \biggr)^{1/n} \frac{\tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_A}{\tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_M^{(n+1)/n}} \cdot x^{(n-3)/n }_\mathrm{eq} - \frac{1}{5} \cdot \frac{\tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_W}{\tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_M^2} \biggr]</math>
	<math>~=</math>	<math>~\biggl(\frac{3}{4\pi} \biggr)^{(n+1)/n} \frac{\tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_A}{\tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_M^{(n+1)/n}} \cdot x^{(n-3)/n }_\mathrm{eq} - \frac{3}{20\pi} \cdot \frac{\tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_W}{\tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_M^2} \, .</math>

And we conclude that,

<math>~3c[x_\mathrm{eq}]^4_\mathrm{crit} </math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~\frac{(n-3)}{5(n+1)} \cdot \frac{\tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_W}{\tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_M^2} </math>
<math>~\Rightarrow ~~~ \biggl( \frac{P_e}{P_\mathrm{norm}} \biggr) [x_\mathrm{eq}]^4_\mathrm{crit}</math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~\frac{1}{20\pi} \biggl( \frac{n-3}{n+1} \biggr) \frac{\tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_W}{\tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_M^2} </math>
<math>~\Rightarrow ~~~ \biggl(\frac{3}{4\pi} \biggr)^{(n+1)/n} \frac{\tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_A}{\tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_M^{(n+1)/n}} \cdot [ x_\mathrm{eq} ]^{(n-3)/n }_\mathrm{crit} - \frac{3}{20\pi} \cdot \frac{\tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_W}{\tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_M^2} </math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~\frac{1}{20\pi} \biggl( \frac{n-3}{n+1} \biggr) \frac{\tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_W}{\tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_M^2} </math>
<math>~\Rightarrow ~~~ \biggl(\frac{3}{4\pi} \biggr)^{(n+1)/n} \frac{\tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_A}{\tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_M^{(n+1)/n}} \cdot [ x_\mathrm{eq} ]^{(n-3)/n }_\mathrm{crit} </math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~\frac{1}{20\pi} \biggl( \frac{n-3}{n+1} \biggr) \frac{\tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_W}{\tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_M^2} + \frac{3}{20\pi} \cdot \frac{\tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_W}{\tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_M^2}</math>
	<math>~=</math>	<math>~\frac{1}{20\pi} \biggl( \frac{4n}{n+1} \biggr) \frac{\tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_W}{\tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_M^2} </math>
<math>~\Rightarrow ~~~ [ x_\mathrm{eq} ]^{(n-3)/n }_\mathrm{crit} </math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~\frac{1}{20\pi} \biggl(\frac{4\pi}{3} \biggr)^{(n+1)/n} \biggl( \frac{4n}{n+1} \biggr) \frac{\tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_W}{\tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_A \tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_M^{(n-1)/n} } </math>
<math>~\Rightarrow ~~~ [ x_\mathrm{eq} ]_\mathrm{crit} </math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ \biggl[\frac{4n}{15(n+1)} \biggl(\frac{4\pi}{3} \biggr)^{1/n} \frac{\tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_W}{\tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_A \tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_M^{(n-1)/n} } \biggr]^{n/(n-3)} \, . </math>

ASIDE: Let's see what this requires for the case of <math>~n=5</math>, where everything is specifiable analytically. We have gathered together:

Form factors from here.
Hoerdt's equilibrium expressions from here.
Conversion from Horedt's units to ours as specified here.

<math>~{\tilde\mathfrak{f}}_M</math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ ( 1 + \ell^2 )^{-3/2} </math>
<math>~{\tilde\mathfrak{f}}_W</math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ \frac{5}{2^4} \cdot \ell^{-5} \biggl[ \ell \biggl( \ell^4 - \frac{8}{3}\ell^2 - 1 \biggr)(1 + \ell^2)^{-3} + \tan^{-1}(\ell ) \biggr] </math>
<math>~{\tilde\mathfrak{f}}_A</math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ \frac{3}{2^3} \ell^{-3} [ \tan^{-1}(\ell ) + \ell (\ell^2-1) (1+\ell^2)^{-2} ] </math>
<math>~\frac{R_\mathrm{eq}}{R_\mathrm{norm}} = \frac{R_\mathrm{eq}}{R_\mathrm{Horedt}} \biggl[ \frac{4\pi}{(n+1)^n} \biggr]^{1/(n-3)}</math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~\biggl\{ 3 \biggl[ \frac{(\xi_e^2/3)^5}{(1+\xi_e^2/3)^{6}} \biggr] \biggr\}^{-1/2}\biggl[ \frac{4\pi}{(n+1)^n} \biggr]^{1/(n-3)}</math>
	<math>~=</math>	<math>~\biggl[ \frac{(1+\ell^2)^{3}}{\ell^{5}} \biggr] \biggl[ \frac{\pi}{2^3\cdot 3^6} \biggr]^{1/2}</math>
<math>~\frac{P_e}{P_\mathrm{norm}} = \frac{P_e}{P_\mathrm{Horedt}} \biggl[ \frac{(n+1)^3}{4\pi} \biggr]^{(n+1)/(n-3)}</math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~3^3 \biggl[ \frac{(\xi_e^2/3)^3}{(1+\xi_e^2/3)^{4}} \biggr]^3 \biggl[ \frac{(n+1)^3}{4\pi} \biggr]^{(n+1)/(n-3)}</math>
	<math>~=</math>	<math>~\biggl[ \frac{\ell^{18}}{(1+\ell^2)^{12}} \biggr] \biggl[ \frac{2 \cdot 3^4}{\pi} \biggr]^{3}</math>

So, the radius of the critical equilibrium state should be,

<math>~\biggl[\frac{R_\mathrm{eq}}{R_\mathrm{norm}} \biggr]^4_\mathrm{crit} </math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~\frac{(n-3)}{3\cdot 5(n+1)} \biggl(\frac{3}{2^2\pi}\biggr) \biggl(\frac{P_e}{P_\mathrm{norm}}\biggr)^{-1}\cdot \frac{\tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_W}{\tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_M^2} </math>
	<math>~=</math>	<math>~\frac{1}{2^2\cdot 3\cdot 5 \pi} \biggl\{\frac{(1+\ell^2)^{12}}{\ell^{18}} \biggl[ \frac{\pi}{2 \cdot 3^4} \biggr]^{3}\biggr\} (1+\ell^2)^3 \cdot \biggl\{ \frac{5}{2^4} \cdot \ell^{-5} \biggl[ \ell \biggl( \ell^4 - \frac{8}{3}\ell^2 - 1 \biggr)(1 + \ell^2)^{-3} + \tan^{-1}(\ell ) \biggr] \biggr\} </math>
	<math>~=</math>	<math>~\frac{\pi^2}{2^9\cdot 3^{13}} \biggl\{\frac{(1+\ell^2)^{12}}{\ell^{23}} \biggr\} \cdot \biggl\{ \biggl[ \ell \biggl( \ell^4 - \frac{8}{3}\ell^2 - 1 \biggr) + (1 + \ell^2)^{3}\tan^{-1}(\ell ) \biggr] \biggr\} \, ; </math>

whereas, each equilibrium configuration has,

<math>~\biggl[\frac{R_\mathrm{eq}}{R_\mathrm{norm}}\biggr]^4 </math>

<math>~\frac{\pi^2}{2^6\cdot 3^{12}} \biggl[ \frac{(1+\ell^2)^{12}}{\ell^{20}} \biggr] \, .</math>

So the equilibrium state that marks the critical configuration must have a value of <math>~\ell</math> that satisfies the relation,

<math>~\frac{\pi^2}{2^6\cdot 3^{12}} \biggl[ \frac{(1+\ell^2)^{12}}{\ell^{20}} \biggr] </math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~\frac{\pi^2}{2^9\cdot 3^{13}} \biggl\{\frac{(1+\ell^2)^{12}}{\ell^{23}} \biggr\} \cdot \biggl\{ \biggl[ \ell \biggl( \ell^4 - \frac{8}{3}\ell^2 - 1 \biggr) + (1 + \ell^2)^{3}\tan^{-1}(\ell ) \biggr] \biggr\} </math>
<math>~\Rightarrow ~~~2^3\cdot 3 \ell^3</math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ \ell ( \ell^4 - \frac{8}{3}\ell^2 - 1 ) + (1 + \ell^2)^{3}\tan^{-1}(\ell ) </math>
<math>~\Rightarrow ~~~\biggl[ \frac{(1 + \ell^2)^{3}}{\ell} \biggr] \tan^{-1}(\ell ) </math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~1 + \frac{80}{3}\cdot \ell^2 -\ell^4 \, . </math>

The solution is: <math>~\ell_\mathrm{crit} \approx 2.223175 \, .</math>

In addition, we know from our dissection of Hoerdt's work on detailed force-balance models that, in the equilibrium state,

<math>~\biggl(\frac{P_e}{P_\mathrm{norm}}\biggr) \biggl(\frac{R_\mathrm{eq}}{R_\mathrm{norm}} \biggr)^4</math>	<math>~=</math>	<math> \biggl[ \frac{\tilde\theta^{n+1} }{(4\pi)(n+1)( -\tilde\theta' )^{2}} \biggr] </math>
<math>~\Rightarrow ~~~ 3c x_\mathrm{eq}^4</math>	<math>~=</math>	<math> \biggl[ \frac{\tilde\theta^{n+1} }{(n+1)( -\tilde\theta' )^{2}} \biggr] \, . </math>

This means that, for any chosen polytropic index, the critical equilibrium state is the equilibrium configuration for which (needs to be checked),

<math>~2(9-2n){\tilde\theta}^{n+1}</math>

<math>~ 3(n-3)\biggl[ (- {\tilde\theta}^')^2 - \frac{\tilde\theta(-{\tilde\theta}^')}{\tilde\xi}\biggr] \, . </math>

We note, as well, that by combining the Horedt expression for <math>~x_\mathrm{eq}</math> with our virial equilibrium expression, we find (needs to be checked),

<math>~x_\mathrm{eq}^{n-3}</math>

<math>~\frac{4\pi}{3}\biggl[ \frac{3}{(n+1)\tilde\xi^2} + \frac{{\tilde\mathfrak{f}}_{W} - {\tilde\mathfrak{f}}_{M}}{5\tilde\mathfrak{f}_A} \biggr]^{n} {\tilde\mathfrak{f}}_{M}^{1-n} \, .</math>

Case P

First Pass

Alternatively, let's examine the "Case P" free-energy surface. Drawing on Stahler's presentation, we adopt the following radius and mass normalizations:

<math>M_\mathrm{SWS} = \biggl( \frac{n+1}{n} \biggr)^{3/2} G^{-3/2} K_n^{2n/(n+1)} P_\mathrm{e}^{(3-n)/[2(n+1)]} \, ,</math>

<math> R_\mathrm{SWS} = \biggl( \frac{n+1}{n} \biggr)^{1/2} G^{-1/2} K_n^{n/(n+1)} P_\mathrm{e}^{(1-n)/[2(n+1)]} \, . </math>

In terms of these new normalizations, we have,

<math>~R_\mathrm{norm} \equiv \biggl[\biggl( \frac{G}{K} \biggr)^n M_\mathrm{tot}^{(n-1)} \biggr]^{1/(n-3)}</math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ \biggl( \frac{G}{K} \biggr)^{n/(n-3)} M_\mathrm{tot}^{(n-1)/(n-3)} R_\mathrm{SWS} \biggl( \frac{n+1}{n} \biggr)^{-1/2} G^{1/2} K_n^{-n/(n+1)} P_\mathrm{e}^{-(1-n)/[2(n+1)]} </math>
		<math>~+ M_\mathrm{SWS}^{-(n-1)/(n-3)} \biggl[ \biggl( \frac{n+1}{n} \biggr)^{3/2} G^{-3/2} K_n^{2n/(n+1)} P_\mathrm{e}^{(3-n)/[2(n+1)]} \biggr]^{(n-1)/(n-3)} </math>
	<math>~=</math>	<math>~R_\mathrm{SWS} \biggl( \frac{M_\mathrm{tot}}{M_\mathrm{SWS}}\biggr)^{(n-1)/(n-3)} \biggl( \frac{n+1}{n} \biggr)^{[3(n-1)-(n-3)]/[2(n-3)]} G^{[2n+(n-3)-3(n-1)]/[2(n-3)]} </math>
		<math>~+ K_n^{n[2(n-1) - (n+1) - (n-3)]/[(n+1)(n-3)]} P_\mathrm{e}^{-(n-1)(3-n)/[2(n+1)(n-3)]} P_\mathrm{e}^{(n-1)(3-n)/[2(n+1)(n-3)]} </math>
	<math>~=</math>	<math>~R_\mathrm{SWS} \biggl( \frac{M_\mathrm{tot}}{M_\mathrm{SWS}}\biggr)^{(n-1)/(n-3)} \biggl( \frac{n+1}{n} \biggr)^{n/(n-3)} \, . </math>

and,

<math>~P_\mathrm{norm} \equiv \biggl[ \frac{K^{4n}}{G^{3(n+1)} M_\mathrm{tot}^{2(n+1)} } \biggr]^{1/(n-3)}</math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ \biggl[ \frac{K^{4n}}{G^{3(n+1)} } \biggr]^{1/(n-3)} \biggl( \frac{M_\mathrm{tot} }{M_\mathrm{SWS}} \biggr)^{-2(n+1)/(n-3)} \biggl\{ \biggl( \frac{n+1}{n} \biggr)^{3/2} G^{-3/2} K_n^{2n/(n+1)} P_\mathrm{e}^{(3-n)/[2(n+1)]}\biggr\}^{-2(n+1)/(n-3)} </math>
	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ \biggl( \frac{M_\mathrm{tot} }{M_\mathrm{SWS}} \biggr)^{-2(n+1)/(n-3)} \biggl( \frac{n+1}{n} \biggr)^{-3(n+1)/(n-3)} K^{4n/(n-3)} G^{-3(n+1)/(n-3)} </math>
		<math>~\times~ G^{3(n+1)/(n-3)} K_n^{-4n/(n-3)} \biggl\{ P_\mathrm{e}^{-(n-3)/[2(n+1)]}\biggr\}^{-2(n+1)/(n-3)} </math>
	<math>~=</math>	<math>~P_e \biggl( \frac{M_\mathrm{tot} }{M_\mathrm{SWS}} \biggr)^{-2(n+1)/(n-3)} \biggl( \frac{n+1}{n} \biggr)^{-3(n+1)/(n-3)} \, . </math>

Rewriting the expression for the free energy gives,

<math>~\mathfrak{G}_{K,M}^* \equiv \frac{\mathfrak{G}_{K,M}}{E_\mathrm{norm}} </math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ -3\mathcal{A} \biggl(\frac{R}{R_\mathrm{SWS}}\biggr)^{-1} \biggl(\frac{R_\mathrm{norm}}{R_\mathrm{SWS}} \biggr) +~ n\mathcal{B} \biggl(\frac{R}{R_\mathrm{SWS}}\biggr)^{-3/n} \biggl(\frac{R_\mathrm{norm}}{R_\mathrm{SWS}} \biggr)^{3/n} +~ \biggl( \frac{4\pi}{3} \biggr) \frac{P_e}{P_\mathrm{norm}} \biggl(\frac{R}{R_\mathrm{SWS}}\biggr)^3 \biggl(\frac{R_\mathrm{norm}}{R_\mathrm{SWS}}\biggr)^{-3} </math>
	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ -3\mathcal{A} \biggl(\frac{R}{R_\mathrm{SWS}}\biggr)^{-1} \biggl[ \biggl( \frac{M_\mathrm{tot}}{M_\mathrm{SWS}}\biggr)^{(n-1)/(n-3)} \biggl( \frac{n+1}{n} \biggr)^{n/(n-3)}\biggr] </math>
		<math>~ +~ n\mathcal{B} \biggl(\frac{R}{R_\mathrm{SWS}}\biggr)^{-3/n} \biggl[ \biggl( \frac{M_\mathrm{tot}}{M_\mathrm{SWS}}\biggr)^{(n-1)/(n-3)} \biggl( \frac{n+1}{n} \biggr)^{n/(n-3)}\biggr]^{3/n} </math>
		<math>~ +~ \biggl( \frac{4\pi}{3} \biggr) \biggl( \frac{M_\mathrm{tot} }{M_\mathrm{SWS}} \biggr)^{2(n+1)/(n-3)} \biggl( \frac{n+1}{n} \biggr)^{3(n+1)/(n-3)} \biggl(\frac{R}{R_\mathrm{SWS}}\biggr)^3 \biggl[ \biggl( \frac{M_\mathrm{tot}}{M_\mathrm{SWS}}\biggr)^{(n-1)/(n-3)} \biggl( \frac{n+1}{n} \biggr)^{n/(n-3)}\biggr]^{-3} </math>
	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ -3\mathcal{A} \biggl( \frac{n+1}{n} \biggr)^{n/(n-3)} \biggl( \frac{M_\mathrm{tot}}{M_\mathrm{SWS}}\biggr)^{(n-1)/(n-3)} \biggl(\frac{R}{R_\mathrm{SWS}}\biggr)^{-1} +~ n\mathcal{B} \biggl( \frac{n+1}{n} \biggr)^{3/(n-3)} \biggl( \frac{M_\mathrm{tot}}{M_\mathrm{SWS}}\biggr)^{3(n-1)/[n(n-3)]} \biggl(\frac{R}{R_\mathrm{SWS}}\biggr)^{-3/n} </math>
		<math>~ +~ \biggl( \frac{4\pi}{3} \biggr) \biggl( \frac{n+1}{n} \biggr)^{3/(n-3)} \biggl( \frac{M_\mathrm{tot} }{M_\mathrm{SWS}} \biggr)^{(5-n)/(n-3)} \biggl(\frac{R}{R_\mathrm{SWS}}\biggr)^3 \, . </math>

Therefore, in this case, we have,

we have,

<math>~\biggl( \frac{R_\mathrm{norm}}{R_\mathrm{SWS}} \biggr)^{4}</math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~\biggl( \frac{n+1}{n} \biggr)^{-2} \biggl(\frac{M_\mathrm{tot}}{M_\mathrm{SWS}}\biggr)^{4(n-1)/(n-3)} \biggl( \frac{n+1}{n} \biggr)^{6(n-1)/(n-3)} </math>
	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ \biggl(\frac{M_\mathrm{tot}}{M_\mathrm{SWS}}\biggr)^{4(n-1)/(n-3)} \biggl( \frac{n+1}{n} \biggr)^{4n/(n-3)} </math>

By inspection, in the specific case of <math>~n=5</math> (see above), this critical configuration appears to coincide with one of the "turning points" identified by Kimura. Specifically, it appears to coincide with the "extremal in r₁" along an M₁ sequence, which satisfies the condition,

<math>~\biggl[ \frac{n-3}{n-1} \biggr]_{n=5}</math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~\biggl[ \frac{\tilde\xi \tilde\theta^{n}}{(-\tilde\theta^')}\biggr]_{n=5}</math>
<math>~\Rightarrow ~~~\frac{1}{2} </math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~3^{1/2}\ell \biggl[ (1 + \ell^2)^{-1/2} \biggr]^5 \biggl[ \frac{\ell}{3^{1/2}} (1+\ell^2 )^{-3/2} \biggr]^{-1}</math>
	<math>~=</math>	<math>~3(1 + \ell^2)^{-1} </math>
<math>~\Rightarrow~~~ \ell </math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~5^{1/2} \, .</math>

Hence, according to Kimura, the turning point associated with the configuration with the largest equilibrium radius, corresponds to the equilibrium configuration having,

<math>~\ell |_\mathrm{R_{max}} = \sqrt{5} \approx 2.2360680 \, .</math>

This is, indeed, very close to — but decidedly different from — the value of <math>~\ell_\mathrm{crit}</math> determined, above!

<math>~E_\mathrm{SWS}</math>	<math>~\equiv</math>	<math>~E_\mathrm{norm} \biggl( \frac{M_\mathrm{tot}}{M_\mathrm{SWS}}\biggr)^{(5-n)/(n-3)} \biggl(\frac{n+1}{n}\biggr)^{3/(n-3)} </math>

we can write,

<math>~\mathfrak{G}_{K,M}^* \equiv \frac{\mathfrak{G}_{K,M}}{E_\mathrm{SWS}} </math>

<math>~ -3\mathcal{A} \biggl( \frac{n+1}{n} \biggr) \biggl( \frac{M_\mathrm{tot}}{M_\mathrm{SWS}}\biggr)^{2} \biggl(\frac{R}{R_\mathrm{SWS}}\biggr)^{-1} +~ n\mathcal{B} \biggl( \frac{M_\mathrm{tot}}{M_\mathrm{SWS}}\biggr)^{(n+1)/n} \biggl(\frac{R}{R_\mathrm{SWS}}\biggr)^{-3/n} +\frac{4\pi}{3} \biggl(\frac{R}{R_\mathrm{SWS}}\biggr)^3 \, , </math>

in which case the coefficients of the generic free-energy expression are,

<math>~a</math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ \frac{3}{5} \cdot \frac{ \tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_W}{\tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_M^2} \biggl(\frac{n+1}{n}\biggr)\biggl( \frac{M_\mathrm{tot}}{M_\mathrm{SWS}}\biggr)^2 = \frac{3}{5} \cdot \biggl( \frac{4\pi }{3}\biggr)^2 \biggl(\frac{n+1}{n}\biggr)\tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_W \mathfrak{m}^{2}</math>
<math>~b</math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ n\biggl(\frac{3}{4\pi}\biggr)^{1/n} \frac{\tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_A}{\tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_M^{(n+1)/n}} \biggl( \frac{M_\mathrm{tot}}{M_\mathrm{SWS}}\biggr)^{(n+1)/n} = \biggl( \frac{4\pi n}{3}\biggr) \tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_A \mathfrak{m}^{(n+1)/n} </math>
<math>~c</math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ \frac{4\pi}{3} \, , </math>

where, as above,

<math>~\mathfrak{m}</math>

<math>~\equiv</math>

<math>~\biggl( \frac{3}{4\pi} \biggr) \frac{ 1}{\tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_M} \biggl( \frac{M_\mathrm{tot}}{M_\mathrm{SWS}}\biggr) \, .</math>

Now, if we define the pair of parameters,

<math>~\alpha</math>	<math>~\equiv</math>	<math>~\frac{a}{3c}</math>
<math>~\beta</math>	<math>~\equiv</math>	<math>~\frac{b}{nc} \, ,</math>

then the statement of virial equilibrium is,

<math>~x_\mathrm{eq}^4 + \alpha</math>

<math>~\beta x_\mathrm{eq}^{(n-3)/n} \, ,</math>

and the boundary between dynamical stability and instability occurs at,

<math>~[x_\mathrm{eq}]_\mathrm{crit}^4</math>

<math>~\biggl[ \frac{n-3}{3(n+1)} \biggr]\alpha \, .</math>

Combining these last two expressions means that the boundary between dynamical stability and instability is associated with the parameter condition,

<math>~[x_\mathrm{eq}]^{(n-3)/n}_\mathrm{crit} </math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~\biggl[ \frac{n-3}{3(n+1)} + 1\biggr] \frac{\alpha}{\beta} </math>

Case M

<math>~a</math>	<math>~\equiv</math>	<math>~3\mathcal{A} = \frac{3}{5} \cdot \frac{\tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_W}{\tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_M^2}\, , </math>
<math>~b</math>	<math>~\equiv</math>	<math>~n\mathcal{B} = n\biggl(\frac{4\pi}{3} \biggr)^{-1/n} \frac{\tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_A}{\tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_M^{(n+1)/n}} \, , </math>
<math>~c</math>	<math>~\equiv</math>	<math>~\frac{4\pi}{3}\biggl( \frac{P_e}{P_\mathrm{norm}} \biggr) \, . </math>

Hence,

<math>~\alpha</math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~\biggl(\frac{4\pi }{15} \biggr) \tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_W \biggl(\frac{3}{4\pi \tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_M}\biggr)^2 \biggl( \frac{P_e}{P_\mathrm{norm}} \biggr)^{-1}</math>

Compare

Let's see if the two cases, in fact, provide the same answer.

<math>~\biggl( \frac{R_\mathrm{norm}}{R_\mathrm{SWS}}\biggr)^{n-3} = \biggl[ \frac{x_\mathrm{P}}{x_\mathrm{M}} \biggr]_\mathrm{crit}^{n-3}</math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ \biggl\{ \biggl[ \frac{n-3}{n} \biggr]\biggl( \frac{4\pi \tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_W}{3^2\cdot 5}\biggr) \mathfrak{m}^{2} \biggr\}^{(n-3)/4} \biggl\{ \biggl[ \frac{4}{\tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_A}\biggl( \frac{n}{n+1} \biggr) \frac{4\pi \tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_W}{3^2\cdot 5} \biggr]^n \biggl(\frac{3}{4\pi \tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_M}\biggr)^{(n-1)} \biggr\}^{-1} </math>

Five-One Bipolytropes

For analytically prescribed, "five-one" bipolytropes, <math>~n = 5</math> and <math>~j =1</math>, in which case,

<math>~x^{2/5 }_\mathrm{eq}</math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~\biggl(\frac{5}{ 3b}\biggr) \biggl[a -3 c x^{-2}_\mathrm{eq} \biggr] \, ;</math>
	and
<math>~[x_\mathrm{eq}]_\mathrm{crit} </math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~\biggl[ \frac{18 c}{a }\biggr]^{1/2} \, . </math>

More specifically, the expression that describes the free-energy surface is,

<math>~\mathfrak{G}^*_{51} \equiv 2^4\biggl( \frac{q}{\nu^2}\biggr) \chi_\mathrm{eq} \biggl[\frac{\mathfrak{G}_{51}}{E_\mathrm{norm}} \biggr]</math>

<math>~ \frac{1}{\ell_i^2} \biggl[ \Chi^{-3/5} (5 \mathfrak{L}_i) +\Chi^{-3} (4\mathfrak{K}_i) -\Chi^{-1} (3\mathfrak{L}_i +12\mathfrak{K}_i ) \biggr] \, . </math>

Hence, we have,

<math>~a</math>	<math>~\equiv</math>	<math>~ 3\chi_\mathrm{eq}(\mathfrak{L}_i + 4\mathfrak{K}_i) \, , </math>
<math>~b</math>	<math>~\equiv</math>	<math>~ 5 \mathfrak{L}_i \chi_\mathrm{eq}^{3/5} \, , </math>
<math>~c</math>	<math>~\equiv</math>	<math>~ 4 \mathfrak{K}_i \chi_\mathrm{eq}^{3} \, , </math>

and conclude that,

<math>~[\chi_\mathrm{eq}]_\mathrm{crit}</math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~\biggl[ \frac{18 (4 \mathfrak{K}_i \chi_\mathrm{eq}^{3} )}{ 3\chi_\mathrm{eq}(\mathfrak{L}_i + 4\mathfrak{K}_i)} \biggr]^{1/2}_\mathrm{crit} </math>
	<math>~=</math>	<math>~[\chi_\mathrm{eq}]_\mathrm{crit}\biggl[ \frac{24 \mathfrak{K}_i }{ (\mathfrak{L}_i + 4\mathfrak{K}_i)} \biggr]^{1/2} </math>

<math>~\Rightarrow~~~\biggl[ \frac{\mathfrak{L}_i }{ \mathfrak{K}_i } \biggr]_\mathrm{crit}</math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~20 \, . </math>

Also, from our detailed force balance derivations, we know that,

<math>~\chi_\mathrm{eq} \equiv \frac{ R_\mathrm{eq}}{R_\mathrm{norm}}</math>

<math>~\biggl(\frac{\pi}{2^3}\biggr)^{1/2} \frac{\nu^2}{q} \cdot \frac{(1+\ell_i^2)^3}{3^3\ell_i^5} \, .</math>

Zero-Zero Bipolytropes

General Form

In this case, we retain full generality making the substitutions, <math>~n \rightarrow n_c</math> and <math>~j \rightarrow n_e</math>, to obtain,

<math>~x^{(n_c-3)/n_c }_\mathrm{eq}</math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~\frac{n_c}{ 3b} \biggl[a -\biggl(\frac{3 c}{n_e}\biggr) x^{(n_e-3)/n_e}_\mathrm{eq} \biggr] \, ;</math>
	and
<math>~[x_\mathrm{eq}^{(n_e-3)/n_e}]_\mathrm{crit} </math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~\biggl\{\frac{n_e^2(n_c-3)}{3[ n_c (n_e+3) - n_e(n_c+3) ]}\biggr\} \frac{a}{c} </math>
	<math>~=</math>	<math>~\biggl[\frac{n_e^2(n_c-3)}{3^2(n_c - n_e)}\biggr] \frac{a}{c} \, . </math>

And here, the expression that describes the free-energy surface is,

<math>~\mathfrak{G}^*_{00} \equiv 5 \biggl(\frac{q}{\nu^2}\biggr) \chi_\mathrm{eq} \biggl[\frac{\mathfrak{G}_{00}}{E_\mathrm{norm}} \biggr]</math>

<math>~ \frac{5}{2q^3} \biggl[ n_c A_2\Chi^{-3/n_c} + n_e B_2\Chi^{-3/n_e} - 3C_2\Chi^{-1} \biggr] \, . </math>

Hence, we have,

<math>~a \equiv 3\chi_\mathrm{eq} \biggl(\frac{5}{2q^3} \biggr) C_2 </math>	<math>~=</math>	<math> 3f \chi_\mathrm{eq} \, , </math>
<math>~b \equiv n_c \chi_\mathrm{eq}^{3/n_c} \biggl(\frac{5}{2q^3} \biggr) A_2 </math>	<math>~\equiv</math>	<math> n_c \chi_\mathrm{eq}^{3/n_c} \biggl[1 + q^3 (f - 1-\mathfrak{F} ) \biggr] \, , </math>
<math>~c \equiv n_e \chi_\mathrm{eq}^{3/n_e} \biggl(\frac{5}{2q^3} \biggr) B_2 </math>	<math>~\equiv</math>	<math>~ n_e \chi_\mathrm{eq}^{3/n_e} \biggl(\frac{5}{2q^3} \biggr) \biggl[\frac{2}{5} q^3 f - A_2\biggr] </math>
	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ n_e \chi_\mathrm{eq}^{3/n_e} \biggl\{ f - \biggl[1 + q^3 (f - 1-\mathfrak{F} ) \biggr] \biggr\} \, , </math>

where the definitions of <math>~f</math> and <math>~\mathfrak{F}</math> are given below. We immediately deduce that the critical equilibrium state is identified by,

<math>~[x_\mathrm{eq}^{(n_e-3)/n_e}]_\mathrm{crit} </math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~\biggl\{\frac{fn_e(n_c-3)}{3(n_c - n_e)}\biggr\} [\chi_\mathrm{eq}^{(n_e-3)/n_e}]_\mathrm{crit} \biggl\{ f - \biggl[1 + q^3 (f - 1-\mathfrak{F} ) \biggr] \biggr\}^{-1} </math>
<math>~\Rightarrow ~~~\frac{1}{f}\biggl[1 + q^3 (f - 1-\mathfrak{F} ) \biggr]</math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ 1 - \biggl[ \frac{n_e(n_c-3)}{3(n_c-n_e)} \biggr] </math>
	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ \frac{n_c(3-n_e)}{3(n_c-n_e)} \, .</math>

From our associated detailed-force-balance derivation, we know that the associated equilibrium radius is,

<math>~\chi_\mathrm{eq}</math>

<math>~ \biggl\{ \biggl(\frac{\pi}{3}\biggr) 2^{2-n_c} \nu^{n_c-1} q^{3-n_c} \biggl[1 + \frac{2}{5} q^3(f-1-\mathfrak{F})\biggr]^{n_c} \biggr\}^{1/(n_c-3)} \, . </math>

Compare with Five-One

It is worthwhile to set <math>~n_c = 5</math> and <math>~n_e = 1</math> in this expression and compare the result to the comparable expression shown above for the "Five-One" Bipolytrope. Here we have,

<math>~\biggl[\chi_\mathrm{eq}\biggr]_{51}</math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ \biggl\{ \biggl(\frac{\pi}{3}\biggr) 2^{-3} \nu^{4} q^{-2} \biggl[1 + \frac{2}{5} q^3(f-1-\mathfrak{F})\biggr]^{5} \biggr\}^{1/2} </math>
	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ \biggl(\frac{\pi}{2^3}\biggr)^{1/2} \frac{\nu^2}{q} \cdot \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}} \biggl[1 + \frac{2}{5} q^3(f-1-\mathfrak{F})\biggr]^{5/2} \, ; </math>

whereas, rewriting the above relation gives,

<math>~\chi_\mathrm{eq}\biggr|_{51}</math>

<math>~\biggl(\frac{\pi}{2^3}\biggr)^{1/2} \frac{\nu^2}{q} \cdot \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}} \biggl[\frac{(1+\ell_i^2)^{6/5}}{3\ell_i^2}\biggr]^{5/2} \, .</math>

And, here, we should conclude that the critical equilibrium configuration is associated with,

<math>~\frac{1}{f}\biggl[1 + q^3 (f - 1-\mathfrak{F} ) \biggr]</math>

Free-Energy of Truncated Polytropes

In this case, the Gibbs-like free energy is given by the sum of three separate energies,

<math>~\mathfrak{G}</math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~W_\mathrm{grav} + \mathfrak{S}_\mathrm{therm} + P_eV</math>
	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ - 3\mathcal{A} \biggl[\frac{GM^2}{R} \biggr] + n\mathcal{B} \biggl[ \frac{KM^{(n+1)/n}}{R^{3/n}} \biggr] + \frac{4\pi}{3} \cdot P_e R^3 \, ,</math>

where the constants,

<math>~\mathcal{A} \equiv \frac{1}{5} \cdot \frac{\tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_W}{\tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_M^2}</math>

and

<math>\mathcal{B} \equiv \biggl(\frac{4\pi}{3} \biggr)^{-1/n} \frac{\tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_A}{\tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_M^{(n+1)/n}} \, ,</math>

<math>\tilde\mathfrak{f}_W</math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>\frac{3\cdot 5}{(5-n)\tilde\xi^2} \biggl[\tilde\theta^{n+1} + 3 (\tilde\theta^')^2 - \tilde\mathfrak{f}_M \tilde\theta \biggr] </math>

As we have shown separately, for the singular case of <math>~n = 5</math>,

<math>~\mathfrak{f}_M</math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ ( 1 + \ell^2 )^{-3/2} </math>
<math>~\mathfrak{f}_W</math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ \frac{5}{2^4} \cdot \ell^{-5} \biggl[ \ell \biggl( \ell^4 - \frac{8}{3}\ell^2 - 1 \biggr)(1 + \ell^2)^{-3} + \tan^{-1}(\ell ) \biggr] </math>
<math>~\mathfrak{f}_A</math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ \frac{3}{2^3} \ell^{-3} [ \tan^{-1}(\ell ) + \ell (\ell^2-1) (1+\ell^2)^{-2} ] </math>

where, <math>~\ell \equiv \tilde\xi/\sqrt{3} </math>

In general, then, the warped free-energy surface drapes across a four-dimensional parameter "plane" such that,

<math>~\mathfrak{G}</math>

<math>~\mathfrak{G}(R, K, M, P_e) \, .</math>

In order to effectively visualize the structure of this free-energy surface, we will reduce the parameter space from four to two, in two separate ways: First, we will hold constant the parameter pair, <math>~(K,M)</math>; giving a nod to Kimura's (1981b) nomenclature, we will refer to the resulting function, <math>~\mathfrak{G}_{K,M}(R,P_e)</math>, as a "Case M" free-energy surface because the mass is being held constant. Second, we will hold constant the parameter pair, <math>~(K,P_e)</math>, and examine the resulting "Case P" free-energy surface, <math>~\mathfrak{G}_{K,P_e}(R,M)</math>.

Virial Equilibrium and Dynamical Stability

The first (partial) derivative of <math>~\mathfrak{G}</math> with respect to <math>~R</math> is,

<math>~\frac{\partial \mathfrak{G}}{\partial R}</math>

<math>~ \frac{1}{R} \biggl[ 3\mathcal{A} GM^2 R^{-1} - 3\mathcal{B}KM^{(n+1)/n} R^{-3/n} + 4\pi P_e R^3 \biggr] \, ; </math>

and the second (partial) derivative is,

<math>~\frac{\partial^2 \mathfrak{G}}{\partial R^2}</math>

<math>~ \frac{1}{R^2} \biggl[ -6\mathcal{A} GM^2 R^{-1} + \biggl(\frac{n+3}{n}\biggr) 3\mathcal{B}KM^{(n+1)/n} R^{-3/n} + 8\pi P_e R^3 \biggr] \, . </math>

The virial equilibrium radius is identified by setting the first derivative to zero. This means that,

<math>~3\mathcal{B}KM^{(n+1)/n} R_\mathrm{eq}^{-3/n}</math>

<math>~ 3\mathcal{A} GM^2 R_\mathrm{eq}^{-1} + 4\pi P_e R_\mathrm{eq}^3 \, . </math>

This expression can be usefully rewritten in the following forms:

Virial Equilibrium Condition

Case 1:

<math>~3(n+3)\mathcal{B}KM^{(n+1)/n} R_\mathrm{eq}^{-3/n}</math>

<math>~ 3(n+3)\mathcal{A} GM^2 R_\mathrm{eq}^{-1} + 4\pi (n+3) P_e R_\mathrm{eq}^3 </math>

Case 2:

<math>~ -6n\mathcal{A} GM^2 R_\mathrm{eq}^{-1} </math>

<math>~ 8\pi nP_e R_\mathrm{eq}^3 - 6n\mathcal{B}KM^{(n+1)/n} R_\mathrm{eq}^{-3/n} </math>

Case 3:

<math>~ 8\pi nP_e R_\mathrm{eq}^3 </math>

<math>~6n\mathcal{B}KM^{(n+1)/n} R_\mathrm{eq}^{-3/n} - 6n\mathcal{A} GM^2 R_\mathrm{eq}^{-1} </math>

Dynamical stability is determined by the sign of the second derivative expression evaluated at the equilibrium radius; setting the second derivative to zero identifies the transition from stable to unstable configurations. The criterion is,

<math>~\biggl[ -6n\mathcal{A} GM^2 R^{-1} + 3(n+3) \mathcal{B}KM^{(n+1)/n} R^{-3/n} + 8\pi nP_e R^3\biggr]_{R_\mathrm{eq}} </math>

Case 1 Stability Criterion

Using the "Case 1" virial expression to define the equilibrium radius means that the stability criterion is,

<math>~0</math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ -6n\mathcal{A} GM^2 R_\mathrm{eq}^{-1} + 3(n+3)\mathcal{A} GM^2 R_\mathrm{eq}^{-1} + 4\pi (n+3) P_e R_\mathrm{eq}^3 + 8\pi nP_e R_\mathrm{eq}^3 </math>
	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ \mathcal{A} GM^2 R_\mathrm{eq}^{-1} [3(n+3)- 6n ] + 4\pi P_e R_\mathrm{eq}^3 [(n+3) + 2n] </math>
<math>~\Rightarrow ~~~ 4\pi P_e R_\mathrm{eq}^3 [3(n+1) ] </math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ \mathcal{A} GM^2 R_\mathrm{eq}^{-1} [3(n-3)] </math>
<math>~\Rightarrow ~~~ 4\pi P_e R_\mathrm{eq}^4 (n+1) </math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ \mathcal{A} GM^2 (n-3) </math>

Case 2 Stability Criterion

Using the "Case 2" virial expression to define the equilibrium radius means that the stability criterion is,

<math>~0</math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ 8\pi nP_e R_\mathrm{eq}^3 - 6n\mathcal{B}KM^{(n+1)/n} R_\mathrm{eq}^{-3/n} + 3(n+3) \mathcal{B}KM^{(n+1)/n} R_\mathrm{eq}^{-3/n} + 8\pi nP_e R_\mathrm{eq}^3 </math>
	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ 16\pi nP_e R_\mathrm{eq}^3 - [3(n-3)]\mathcal{B}KM^{(n+1)/n} R_\mathrm{eq}^{-3/n} </math>
<math>~\Rightarrow~~~ 16\pi nP_e R_\mathrm{eq}^3 </math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ [3(n-3)]\mathcal{B}KM^{(n+1)/n} R_\mathrm{eq}^{-3/n} </math>
<math>~\Rightarrow~~~ 16\pi nP_e R_\mathrm{eq}^{3(n+1)/n} </math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ [3(n-3)]\mathcal{B}KM^{(n+1)/n} </math>

Case 3 Stability Criterion

Using the "Case 3" virial expression to define the equilibrium radius means that the stability criterion is,

<math>~0</math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ -6n\mathcal{A} GM^2 R_\mathrm{eq}^{-1} + 3(n+3) \mathcal{B}KM^{(n+1)/n} R_\mathrm{eq}^{-3/n} + 6n\mathcal{B}KM^{(n+1)/n} R_\mathrm{eq}^{-3/n} - 6n\mathcal{A} GM^2 R_\mathrm{eq}^{-1} </math>
	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ -12n\mathcal{A} GM^2 R_\mathrm{eq}^{-1} + [6n +3(n+3)] \mathcal{B}KM^{(n+1)/n} R_\mathrm{eq}^{-3/n} </math>
<math>~\Rightarrow~~~ 9(n+1) \mathcal{B}KM^{(n+1)/n} R_\mathrm{eq}^{-3/n} </math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ 12n\mathcal{A} GM^2 R_\mathrm{eq}^{-1} </math>
<math>~\Rightarrow~~~ R_\mathrm{eq}^{n-3} </math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ \biggl[\frac{4n\mathcal{A}}{3(n+1) \mathcal{B}} \biggr]^n \biggl(\frac{G}{K}\biggr)^n M^{n-1} </math>

Case M

Now, in our discussion of "Case M" sequence analyses, the configuration's radius is normalized to,

<math>~R_\mathrm{norm}</math>

<math>~\equiv</math>

Our "Case 3" stability criterion directly relates. We conclude that the transition from stability to dynamical instability occurs when,

<math>~ \biggl[\frac{R_\mathrm{eq}}{R_\mathrm{norm}}\biggr]_\mathrm{crit}^{n-3} </math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ \biggl[\frac{4n\mathcal{A}}{3(n+1) \mathcal{B}} \biggr]^n </math>
<math>~\Rightarrow~~~ \biggl[\frac{R_\mathrm{eq}}{R_\mathrm{norm}}\biggr]_\mathrm{crit}^{(n-3)/n} </math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ \frac{4n}{15(n+1) } \biggl(\frac{4\pi}{3}\biggr)^{1/n}\cdot \frac{\tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_W}{\tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_A \tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_M^{(n-1)/n}} </math>

Also in the "Case M" discussions, the external pressure is normalized to,

<math>~P_\mathrm{norm}</math>

<math>~\equiv</math>

If we raise the "Case 1" stability criterion expression to the <math>~(n-3)</math> power, then divide it by the "Case 3" stability criterion expression raised to the fourth power, we find,

<math>~\Rightarrow ~~~ [P_e]_\mathrm{crit}^{n-3} </math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ \biggl[\frac{\mathcal{A} GM^2 (n-3)}{4\pi (n+1)}\biggr]^{n-3}\biggl\{ \biggl[\frac{4n\mathcal{A}}{3(n+1) \mathcal{B}} \biggr]^n \biggl(\frac{G}{K}\biggr)^n M^{n-1} \biggr\}^{-4} </math>
	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ \biggl[\frac{\mathcal{A} (n-3)}{4\pi (n+1)}\biggr]^{n-3} G^{n-3} M^{2(n-3)} \biggl[\frac{3(n+1) \mathcal{B}}{4n\mathcal{A}} \biggr]^{4n} \biggl(\frac{K}{G}\biggr)^{4n} M^{4(1-n)} </math>
	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ \biggl[\frac{ (n-3)}{4\pi (n+1)}\biggr]^{n-3} \biggl[\frac{3(n+1) }{4n} \biggr]^{4n} \mathcal{A}^{-3(n+1)} \mathcal{B}^{4n} K^{4n} M^{-2(n+1)} G^{-3(n+1)} </math>
<math>~\Rightarrow ~~~ \biggl[\frac{P_e}{P_\mathrm{norm}} \biggr]_\mathrm{crit}^{n-3} </math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ \biggl[\frac{ (n-3)}{4\pi (n+1)}\biggr]^{n-3} \biggl[\frac{3(n+1) }{4n} \biggr]^{4n} \mathcal{A}^{-3(n+1)} \mathcal{B}^{4n} </math>
	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ \biggl[\frac{ (n-3)}{4\pi (n+1)}\biggr]^{n-3} \biggl[\frac{3(n+1) }{4n} \biggr]^{4n} \biggl[ \frac{ 5\tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_M^2 }{ \tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_W } \biggr]^{3(n+1)} \biggl( \frac{3}{4\pi}\biggr)^4 \biggl[ \frac{ \tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_A }{ \tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_M^{(n+1)/n} } \biggr]^{4n} </math>
	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ \biggl( \frac{3}{4\pi}\biggr)^4 \biggl[\frac{ (n-3)}{4\pi (n+1)}\biggr]^{n-3} \biggl[\frac{3(n+1) }{4n} \biggr]^{4n} \biggl[ \frac{ 5 }{ \tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_W } \biggr]^{3(n+1)} \tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_M^{2(n+1)} \tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_A^{4n} </math>

Case P

Flipping around this expression for <math>~[P_e]_\mathrm{crit}</math>, we also can write,

<math>~ [M]_\mathrm{crit}^{2(n+1)} </math>

<math>~ \biggl[\frac{ (n-3)}{4\pi (n+1)}\biggr]^{n-3} \biggl[\frac{3(n+1) }{4n} \biggr]^{4n} \mathcal{A}^{-3(n+1)} \mathcal{B}^{4n} K^{4n} G^{-3(n+1)} P_e^{3-n} \, . </math>

Now, in our "Case P" discussions we normalized the mass to

<math>~M_\mathrm{SWS}</math>

<math>~\equiv</math>

<math>~ \biggl(\frac{n+1}{n}\biggr)^{3/2} G^{-3/2} K^{2n/(n+1)} P_e^{(3-n)/[2(n+1)]} \, . </math>

Hence, we have,

<math>~\biggl[\frac{M}{M_\mathrm{SWS}} \biggr]_\mathrm{crit}^{2(n+1)} </math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ \biggl[\frac{ (n-3)}{4\pi (n+1)}\biggr]^{n-3} \biggl[\frac{3(n+1) }{4n} \biggr]^{4n} \mathcal{A}^{-3(n+1)} \mathcal{B}^{4n} \biggl(\frac{n+1}{n}\biggr)^{-3(n+1)} </math>
	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ \biggl[\frac{ (n-3)}{4\pi n}\biggr]^{n-3} \biggl(\frac{3 }{4} \biggr)^{4n} \mathcal{A}^{-3(n+1)} \mathcal{B}^{4n} \, , </math>

where the constants,

<math>~\mathcal{A} \equiv \frac{1}{5} \cdot \frac{\tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_W}{\tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_M^2}</math>

and

<math>\mathcal{B} \equiv \biggl(\frac{4\pi}{3} \biggr)^{-1/n} \frac{\tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_A}{\tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_M^{(n+1)/n}} \, .</math>

So we can furthermore conclude that,

<math>~\biggl[\frac{M}{M_\mathrm{SWS}} \biggr]_\mathrm{crit}^{2(n+1)} </math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ \biggl[\frac{ (n-3)}{4\pi n}\biggr]^{n-3} \biggl(\frac{3 }{4} \biggr)^{4n} \biggl\{ \frac{1}{5} \cdot \frac{\tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_W}{\tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_M^2} \biggr\}^{-3(n+1)} \biggl\{ \biggl(\frac{4\pi}{3} \biggr)^{-1/n} \frac{\tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_A}{\tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_M^{(n+1)/n}} \biggr\}^{4n} </math>
	<math>~=</math>	<math>~\biggl(\frac{3}{4\pi} \biggr)^{4} \biggl[\frac{ (n-3)}{4\pi n}\biggr]^{n-3} \biggl(\frac{3\tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_A }{4} \biggr)^{4n} \biggl[ \frac{5^3\tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_M^2}{\tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_W^3} \biggr]^{(n+1)} \, . </math>

Our expression for <math>~[M]_\mathrm{crit}^{2(n+1)}</math> can also be combined with the "Case 2 stability criterion" to eliminate the mass entirely, giving,

<math>~ \biggl\{ 16\pi nP_e R_\mathrm{eq}^{3(n+1)/n} \biggr\}^{2n} </math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ \biggl\{ [3(n-3)]\mathcal{B}K\biggr\}^{2n} \biggl[\frac{ (n-3)}{4\pi (n+1)}\biggr]^{n-3} \biggl[\frac{3(n+1) }{4n} \biggr]^{4n} \mathcal{A}^{-3(n+1)} \mathcal{B}^{4n} K^{4n} G^{-3(n+1)} P_e^{3-n} </math>
<math>~\Rightarrow~~~ R_\mathrm{eq}^{6(n+1)} </math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ \biggl[ \frac{ 3(n-3)}{16\pi n} \biggr]^{2n} \biggl[\frac{ (n-3)}{4\pi (n+1)}\biggr]^{n-3} \biggl[\frac{3(n+1) }{4n} \biggr]^{4n} \mathcal{A}^{-3(n+1)} \mathcal{B}^{6n} K^{6n} G^{-3(n+1)} P_e^{3(1-n)} </math>
<math>~\Rightarrow~~~ R_\mathrm{eq}^{2(n+1)} </math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ \biggl\{ \biggl[ \frac{ (n-3)}{4\pi n} \biggr]^{2n} \biggl[\frac{ (n-3)}{4\pi n}\biggr]^{n-3} \biggl[\frac{(n+1) }{n} \biggr]^{4n+(3-n)} \biggl(\frac{3 }{4} \biggr)^{6n} \biggr\}^{1/3} \mathcal{A}^{-(n+1)} \mathcal{B}^{2n} K^{2n} G^{-(n+1)} P_e^{(1-n)} </math>
	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ \biggl[ \frac{ (n-3)}{4\pi n} \biggr]^{(n-1)} \biggl[\frac{(n+1) }{n} \biggr]^{(n+1)} \biggl(\frac{3 }{4} \biggr)^{2n} \mathcal{A}^{-(n+1)} \mathcal{B}^{2n} K^{2n} G^{-(n+1)} P_e^{(1-n)} \, . </math>

Finally, recognizing that in our "Case P" discussions we normalized the radius to

<math>~R_\mathrm{SWS}</math>

<math>~\equiv</math>

<math>~ \biggl(\frac{n+1}{n}\biggr)^{1/2} G^{-1/2} K^{n/(n+1)} P_e^{(1-n)/[2(n+1)]} \, , </math>

we have,

<math>~ [R_\mathrm{eq}]_\mathrm{crit}^{2(n+1)} </math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ \biggl[ \frac{ (n-3)}{4\pi n} \biggr]^{(n-1)} \biggl(\frac{n+1 }{n} \biggr)^{(n+1)} \biggl(\frac{3 }{4} \biggr)^{2n} \mathcal{A}^{-(n+1)} \mathcal{B}^{2n} \biggl\{ R_\mathrm{SWS}\biggl(\frac{n+1 }{n} \biggr)^{-1/2} \biggr\}^{2(n+1)} </math>
<math>~\Rightarrow~~~ \biggl[ \frac{R_\mathrm{eq}}{R_\mathrm{SWS}} \biggr]_\mathrm{crit}^{2(n+1)} </math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ \biggl[ \frac{ (n-3)}{4\pi n} \biggr]^{(n-1)} \biggl(\frac{3 }{4} \biggr)^{2n} \mathcal{A}^{-(n+1)} \mathcal{B}^{2n} </math>
	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ \biggl[ \frac{n}{n-3} \biggr]^{(1-n)} (4\pi)^{1-n}\biggl(\frac{3 }{4} \biggr)^{2n} \biggl[ \frac{1}{5} \cdot \frac{\tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_W}{\tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_M^2} \biggr]^{-(n+1)} \biggl[ \biggl(\frac{4\pi}{3} \biggr)^{-1/n} \frac{\tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_A}{\tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_M^{(n+1)/n}} \biggr]^{2n} </math>
	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ \biggl[ \frac{n}{n-3} \biggr]^{(1-n)} (4\pi)^{1-n -2} 3^{2n+2} 4^{-2n} \biggl[ \frac{5\tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_M^2}{\tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_W}\biggr]^{(n+1)} \biggl[ \frac{\tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_A^{2n}}{\tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_M^{2(n+1)}} \biggr] </math>
	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ \biggl[ \frac{n}{n-3} \biggr]^{(1-n)} \biggl[ \frac{3^2\cdot 5}{4\pi \tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_W}\biggr]^{(n+1)} \biggl[\frac{ \tilde{\mathfrak{f}}_A}{4} \biggr]^{2n} \, . </math>

Case M Free-Energy Surface

It is useful to rewrite the free-energy function in terms of dimensionless parameters. Here we need to pick normalizations for energy, radius, and pressure that are expressed in terms of the gravitational constant, <math>~G</math>, and the two fixed parameters, <math>~K</math> and <math>~M</math>. We have chosen to use,

<math>~R_\mathrm{norm}</math>	<math>~\equiv</math>	<math>~\biggl[ \biggl( \frac{G}{K} \biggr)^n M_\mathrm{tot}^{n-1} \biggr]^{1/(n-3)} \, ,</math>
<math>~P_\mathrm{norm}</math>	<math>~\equiv</math>	<math>~\biggl[ \frac{K^{4n}}{G^{3(n+1)} M_\mathrm{tot}^{2(n+1)}} \biggr]^{1/(n-3)} \, ,</math>

which, as is detailed in an accompanying discussion, are similar but not identical to the normalizations used by Horedt (1970) and by Whitworth (1981). The self-consistent energy normalization is,

<math>~E_\mathrm{norm}</math>

<math>~\equiv</math>

<math>~P_\mathrm{norm} R^3_\mathrm{norm} \, .</math>

As we have demonstrated elsewhere, after implementing these normalizations, the expression that describes the "Case M" free-energy surface is,

<math> \mathfrak{G}_{K,M}^* \equiv \frac{\mathfrak{G}_{K,M}}{E_\mathrm{norm}} = -3\mathcal{A} \biggl(\frac{R}{R_\mathrm{norm}}\biggr)^{-1} +~ n\mathcal{B} \biggl(\frac{R}{R_\mathrm{norm}}\biggr)^{-3/n} +~ \biggl( \frac{4\pi}{3} \biggr) \frac{P_e}{P_\mathrm{norm}} \biggl(\frac{R}{R_\mathrm{norm}}\biggr)^3 \, , </math>

Given the polytropic index, <math>~n</math>, we expect to obtain a different "Case M" free-energy surface for each choice of the dimensionless truncation radius, <math>~\tilde\xi</math>; this choice will imply corresponding values for <math>~\tilde\theta</math> and <math>~\tilde\theta^'</math> and, hence also, corresponding (constant) values of the coefficients, <math>~\mathcal{A}</math> and <math>~\mathcal{B}</math>.

Case P Free-Energy Surface

Again, it is useful to rewrite the free-energy function in terms of dimensionless parameters. But here we need to pick normalizations for energy, radius, and mass that are expressed in terms of the gravitational constant, <math>~G</math>, and the two fixed parameters, <math>~K</math> and <math>~P_e</math>. As is detailed in an accompanying discussion, we have chosen to use the normalizations defined by Stahler (1983), namely,

<math>~R_\mathrm{SWS}</math>	<math>~\equiv</math>	<math>~\biggl( \frac{n+1}{nG} \biggr)^{1/2} K^{n/(n+1)} P_\mathrm{e}^{(1-n)/[2(n+1)]} \, ,</math>
<math>~M_\mathrm{SWS}</math>	<math>~\equiv</math>	<math>~\biggl( \frac{n+1}{nG} \biggr)^{3/2} K^{2n/(n+1)} P_\mathrm{e}^{(3-n)/[2(n+1)]} \, .</math>

The self-consistent energy normalization is,

<math>~E_\mathrm{SWS} \equiv \biggl( \frac{n}{n+1} \biggr) \frac{GM_\mathrm{SWS}^2}{R_\mathrm{SWS}}</math>

<math>~ \biggl( \frac{n+1}{n} \biggr)^{3/2} G^{-3/2}K^{3n/(n+1)} P_\mathrm{e}^{(5-n)/[2(n+1)]} \, .</math>

After implementing these normalizations — see our accompanying analysis for details — the expression that describes the "Case P" free-energy surface is,

<math>~\mathfrak{G}_{K,P_e}^* \equiv \frac{\mathfrak{G}_{K,P_e}}{E_\mathrm{SWS}}</math>

<math>~- 3 \mathcal{A} \biggl( \frac{n+1}{n} \biggr)\biggl( \frac{M}{M_\mathrm{SWS}}\biggr)^2 \biggl(\frac{R}{R_\mathrm{SWS}}\biggr)^{-1} + n\mathcal{B} \biggl(\frac{M}{M_\mathrm{SWS}}\biggr)^{(n+1)/n} \biggl(\frac{R}{R_\mathrm{SWS}}\biggr)^{-3/n} + \frac{4\pi}{3} \cdot \biggl( \frac{R}{R_\mathrm{SWS}}\biggr)^3 \, . </math>

Given the polytropic index, <math>~n</math>, we expect to obtain a different "Case P" free-energy surface for each choice of the dimensionless truncation radius, <math>~\tilde\xi</math>; this choice will imply corresponding values for <math>~\tilde\theta</math> and <math>~\tilde\theta^'</math> and, hence also, corresponding (constant) values of the coefficients, <math>~\mathcal{A}</math> and <math>~\mathcal{B}</math>.

In all four cases, the expression on right intersects (is equal to) the expression on the left when the following condition applies:

For <math>~n \ne 5</math>:	<math>~ 2(9-2n){\tilde\theta}^{n+1} </math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ 3(n-3) \biggl[ (-{\tilde\theta}^')^2 - \biggl( -\frac{\tilde\theta {\tilde\theta}^'}{\tilde\xi} \biggr)\biggr] \, ; </math>

If (for <math>n\ne 5</math>) we adopt the shorthand notation,

<math>~\Upsilon</math>	<math>~\equiv</math>	<math>~[3 (-{\tilde\theta}^')^2 - {\tilde\mathfrak{f}}_M \tilde\theta] = 3\biggl[ (-{\tilde\theta}^')^2 - \biggl( -\frac{\tilde\theta {\tilde\theta}^'}{\tilde\xi} \biggr)\biggr] \, , </math>
and
<math>~\tau</math>	<math>~\equiv</math>	<math>~{\tilde\theta}^{n+1} \, , </math>

then the critical condition becomes,

<math>~(n-3)\Upsilon</math>

and at the critical state, the expressions for the structural form-factors become,

Q.E.D.

Free-Energy of Bipolytropes

In this case, the Gibbs-like free energy is given by the sum of four separate energies,

<math>~\mathfrak{G}</math>

<math>~ \biggl[W_\mathrm{grav} + \mathfrak{S}_\mathrm{therm}\biggr]_\mathrm{core} + \biggl[W_\mathrm{grav} + \mathfrak{S}_\mathrm{therm}\biggr]_\mathrm{env} \, . </math>

In addition to specifying (generally) separate polytropic indexes for the core, <math>~n_c</math>, and envelope, <math>~n_e</math>, and an envelope-to-core mean molecular weight ratio, <math>~\mu_e/\mu_c</math>, we will assume that the system is fully defined via specification of the following five physical parameters:

Total mass, <math>~M_\mathrm{tot}</math>;
Total radius, <math>~R</math>;
Interface radius, <math>~R_i</math>, and associated dimensionless interface marker, <math>~q \equiv R_i/R</math>;
Core mass, <math>~M_c</math>, and associated dimensionless mass fraction, <math>~\nu \equiv M_c/M_\mathrm{tot}</math>;
Polytropic constant in the core, <math>~K_c</math>.

In general, the warped free-energy surface drapes across a five-dimensional parameter "plane" such that,

<math>~\mathfrak{G}</math>

<math>~\mathfrak{G}(R, K_c, M_\mathrm{tot}, q, \nu) \, .</math>

Order of Magnitude Derivation

Let's begin by providing very rough, approximate expressions for each of these four terms, assuming that <math>~n_c = 5</math> and <math>~n_e = 1</math>.

<math>~W_\mathrm{grav}\biggr\|_\mathrm{core}</math>	<math>~\approx</math>	<math>~- \mathfrak{a}_c \biggl[ \frac{GM_\mathrm{tot} M_c}{(R_i/2)} \biggr] = - 2\mathfrak{a}_c \biggl[ \frac{GM_\mathrm{tot}^2 }{R} \biggl(\frac{\nu}{q}\biggr) \biggr] \, ;</math>
<math>~W_\mathrm{grav}\biggr\|_\mathrm{env}</math>	<math>~\approx</math>	<math>~- \mathfrak{a}_e \biggl[ \frac{GM_\mathrm{tot} M_e}{(R_i+R)/2} \biggr] = - 2\mathfrak{a}_e \biggl[ \frac{GM_\mathrm{tot}^2 }{R} \biggl(\frac{1-\nu}{1+q}\biggr) \biggr] \, ;</math>
<math>~\mathfrak{S}_\mathrm{therm}\biggr\|_\mathrm{core} = U_\mathrm{int}\biggr\|_\mathrm{core} </math>	<math>~\approx</math>	<math>~\mathfrak{b}_c \cdot n_cK_c M_c ({\bar\rho}_c)^{1/n_c} = 5\mathfrak{b}_c \cdot K_c M_\mathrm{tot}\nu \biggl[ \frac{3M_c}{4\pi R_i^3} \biggr]^{1/5} </math>
	<math>~=</math>	<math>~\mathfrak{b}_c \biggl( \frac{3\cdot 5^5}{2^2\pi} \biggr)^{1/5} K_c (M_\mathrm{tot}\nu)^{6/5} (Rq)^{-3/5} \, ;</math>
<math>~\mathfrak{S}_\mathrm{therm}\biggr\|_\mathrm{env} = U_\mathrm{int}\biggr\|_\mathrm{env} </math>	<math>~\approx</math>	<math>~\mathfrak{b}_e \cdot n_eK_e M_\mathrm{env} ({\bar\rho}_e)^{1/n_e} = \mathfrak{b}_e \cdot K_e M_\mathrm{tot}(1-\nu) \biggl[ \frac{3M_\mathrm{env}}{4\pi (R^3-R_i^3)} \biggr] </math>
	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ \mathfrak{b}_e \biggl( \frac{3}{2^2\pi } \biggr) K_e [M_\mathrm{tot}(1-\nu)]^2 [R^3(1-q^3)]^{-1} \, . </math>

In writing this last expression, it has been necessary to (temporarily) introduce a sixth physical parameter, namely, the polytropic constant that characterizes the envelope material, <math>~K_e</math>. But this constant can be expressed in terms of <math>~K_c</math> via a relation that ensures continuity of pressure across the interface while taking into account the drop in mean molecular weight across the interface, that is,

<math>~K_e ({\bar\rho}_e)^{(n_e+1)/n_e}</math>	<math>~\approx</math>	<math>~K_c ({\bar\rho}_c)^{(n_c+1)/n_c}</math>
<math>~\Rightarrow ~~~~ K_e \biggl[\biggl( \frac{\mu_e}{\mu_c} \biggr) {\bar\rho}_c\biggr]^{2}</math>	<math>~\approx</math>	<math>~K_c ({\bar\rho}_c)^{6/5}</math>
<math>~\Rightarrow ~~~~ \frac{K_e}{K_c} \biggl( \frac{\mu_e}{\mu_c} \biggr)^{2}</math>	<math>~\approx</math>	<math>~\biggl[ \frac{3M_\mathrm{tot}\nu}{4\pi (Rq)^3} \biggr]^{-4/5} \, .</math>

Hence, the fourth energy term may be rewritten in the form,

<math>~\mathfrak{S}_\mathrm{therm}\biggr\|_\mathrm{env} = U_\mathrm{int}\biggr\|_\mathrm{env} </math>	<math>~\approx</math>	<math>~ \mathfrak{b}_e \biggl( \frac{3}{2^2\pi } \biggr) \biggl( \frac{\mu_e}{\mu_c} \biggr)^{-2} K_c\biggl[ \frac{3M_\mathrm{tot}\nu}{4\pi (Rq)^3} \biggr]^{-4/5} [M_\mathrm{tot}(1-\nu)]^2 [R^3(1-q^3)]^{-1} </math>
	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ \mathfrak{b}_e \biggl( \frac{3}{2^2\pi } \biggr)^{1/5} \biggl( \frac{\mu_e}{\mu_c} \biggr)^{-2} K_c M_\mathrm{tot}^{6/5}R^{-3/5}\biggl[ \frac{q^3}{\nu} \biggr]^{4/5} \frac{(1-\nu)^2}{(1-q^3)} \, . </math>

Putting all the terms together gives,

<math>~\mathfrak{G}</math>	<math>~\approx</math>	<math>~ - 2\mathfrak{a}_c \biggl[ \frac{GM_\mathrm{tot}^2 }{R} \biggl(\frac{\nu}{q}\biggr) \biggr] - 2\mathfrak{a}_e \biggl[ \frac{GM_\mathrm{tot}^2 }{R} \biggl(\frac{1-\nu}{1+q}\biggr) \biggr] + \mathfrak{b}_c \biggl( \frac{3\cdot 5^5}{2^2\pi} \biggr)^{1/5} K_c (M_\mathrm{tot}\nu)^{6/5} (Rq)^{-3/5} </math>

	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ - 2 \mathcal{A}_\mathrm{biP} \biggl[ \frac{GM_\mathrm{tot}^2 }{R} \biggr] + \mathcal{B}_\mathrm{biP} K_c \biggl[\frac{(\nu M_\mathrm{tot})^{2}}{ qR} \biggr]^{3/5} </math>
<math>~\Rightarrow ~~~~ \frac{\mathfrak{G}}{E_\mathrm{norm}}</math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ - 2 \mathcal{A}_\mathrm{biP} \biggl[ \frac{GM_\mathrm{tot}^2 }{R} \biggr] \biggl(\frac{G^3}{K_c^5}\biggr)^{1/2} + \mathcal{B}_\mathrm{biP} \biggl(\frac{\nu^2}{q}\biggr)^{3/5} K_c \biggl[\frac{M_\mathrm{tot}^{2}}{ R} \biggr]^{3/5}\biggl(\frac{G^3}{K_c^5}\biggr)^{1/2} </math>
	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ - 2 \mathcal{A}_\mathrm{biP} \biggl[ \frac{R_\mathrm{norm}}{R} \biggr] + \mathcal{B}_\mathrm{biP} \biggl(\frac{\nu^2}{q}\biggr)^{3/5} \biggl[\frac{R_\mathrm{norm}}{ R} \biggr]^{3/5} \, , </math>

where,

<math>~\mathcal{A}_\mathrm{biP}</math>	<math>~\equiv</math>	<math>~\biggl[ \mathfrak{a}_c\biggl(\frac{\nu}{q}\biggr) + \mathfrak{a}_e \biggl(\frac{1-\nu}{1+q}\biggr) \biggr] \, ,</math>
<math>~\mathcal{B}_\mathrm{biP}</math>	<math>~\equiv</math>	<math>~\biggl( \frac{3}{2^2\pi} \biggr)^{1/5} \biggl[5\mathfrak{b}_c + \mathfrak{b}_e \biggl( \frac{\mu_e}{\mu_c} \biggr)^{-2} \frac{q^3(1-\nu)^2}{\nu^2(1-q^3)} \biggr] \, .</math>

Equilibrium Radius

Order of Magnitude Estimate

This means that,

<math>~\frac{\partial\mathfrak{G}}{\partial R}</math>

<math>~ + 2 \mathcal{A}_\mathrm{biP}\biggl[ \frac{GM_\mathrm{tot}^2 }{R^2} \biggr] - \frac{3}{5} \mathcal{B}_\mathrm{biP} K_c \biggl[\frac{\nu^{2}}{ q} \biggr]^{3/5} M_\mathrm{tot}^{6/5} R^{-8/5} \, . </math>

Hence, because equilibrium radii are identified by setting <math>~\partial\mathfrak{G}/\partial R = 0</math>, we have,

<math>~\frac{R_\mathrm{eq}}{R_\mathrm{norm}}</math>

<math>~\biggl(\frac{2\cdot 5}{3}\biggr)^{5/2} \biggl[\frac{\mathcal{A}_\mathrm{biP} }{\mathcal{B}_\mathrm{biP}}\biggr]^{5/2} \biggl(\frac{ q} {\nu^{2}}\biggr)^{3/2} \, . </math>

	<math>~=</math>	<math>~\biggl(\frac{2\cdot 5}{3}\biggr)^{5/2} \biggl(\frac{q}{\nu^2} \biggr)^{3/2} \biggl[\biggl( \frac{\pi}{2^8 \cdot 3 \cdot 5^5} \biggr)^{1/2} \biggl(\frac{\nu^2}{q} \biggr)^{5/2} \frac{(1 + \ell_i^2)^3}{\ell_i^5} \biggr] \, . </math>

This implies that,

From Detailed Force-Balance Models

In the following derivations, we will use the expression,

<math>~\chi_\mathrm{eq} \equiv \frac{ R_\mathrm{eq}}{R_\mathrm{norm}}</math>

<math>~\biggl( \frac{\mu_e}{\mu_c} \biggr)^3 \biggl( \frac{\pi}{2^3} \biggr)^{1/2} \frac{1}{A^2\eta_s} = \biggl(\frac{\pi}{2^3}\biggr)^{1/2} \frac{\nu^2}{q} \cdot \frac{(1+\ell_i^2)^3}{3^3\ell_i^5} \, .</math>

Keep in mind, as well — as derived in an accompanying discussion — that,

<math>~\nu \equiv \frac{M_\mathrm{core}}{M_\mathrm{tot}} </math>

<math>~ (m_3^2 \ell_i^3) (1 + \ell_i^2)^{-1/2} [1 + (1-m_3)^2 \ell_i^2]^{-1/2} \biggl[ m_3\ell_i + (1+\ell_i^2) \biggl(\frac{\pi}{2} + \tan^{-1} \Lambda_i \biggr) \biggr]^{-1} \, ,</math>

where,

<math>m_3 \equiv 3 \biggl( \frac{\mu_e}{\mu_c} \biggr) \, .</math>

From the accompanying Table 1 parameter values, we also can write,

<math>~q</math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~\frac{\eta_i}{\eta_s} = \eta_i \biggl\{\frac{\pi}{2} + \eta_i + \tan^{-1}\biggl[ \frac{1}{\eta_i} - \ell_i \biggr] \biggr\}^{-1}</math>
	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ \eta_i \biggl\{\eta_i + \cot^{-1}\biggl[ \ell_i - \frac{1}{\eta_i} \biggr] \biggr\}^{-1} \, , </math>

where,

<math>~m_3 \biggl[\frac{\ell_i }{(1+\ell_i^2)}\biggr] \, .</math>

Let's also define the following shorthand notation:

<math>~\mathfrak{L}_i</math>	<math>~\equiv</math>	<math>~\frac{(\ell_i^4-1)}{\ell_i^2} + \frac{(1+\ell_i^2)^3}{\ell_i^3} \cdot \tan^{-1}\ell_i \, ;</math>
<math>~\mathfrak{K}_i</math>	<math>~\equiv</math>	<math>~\frac{(1+\Lambda_i^2)}{\eta_i} \biggl[\frac{\pi}{2} + \tan^{-1}\Lambda_i\biggr] + \frac{\Lambda_i}{\eta_i} \, .</math>

Gravitational Potential Energy of the Core

Pulling from our detailed derivations,

<math>~\biggl[ \frac{W_\mathrm{core}}{E_\mathrm{norm}} \biggr]_\mathrm{eq}</math>	<math>~=~</math>	<math>~ - \biggl( \frac{3^8}{2^5\pi } \biggr)^{1/2} \biggl[ \ell_i \biggl(\ell_i^4 - \frac{8}{3} \ell_i^2 -1 \biggr) (1 + \ell_i^2)^{-3} + \tan^{-1}(\ell_i) \biggr] \, .</math>
<math>~\Rightarrow ~~~~ -\chi_\mathrm{eq} \biggl[ \frac{W_\mathrm{core}}{E_\mathrm{norm}} \biggr]_\mathrm{eq}</math>	<math>~=~</math>	<math>~ \biggl( \frac{3^8}{2^5\pi } \biggr)^{1/2} \biggl[ \ell_i \biggl(\ell_i^4 - \frac{8}{3} \ell_i^2 -1 \biggr) (1 + \ell_i^2)^{-3} + \tan^{-1}(\ell_i) \biggr] \biggl(\frac{\pi}{2^3}\biggr)^{1/2} \frac{\nu^2}{q} \cdot \frac{(1+\ell_i^2)^3}{3^3\ell_i^5} </math>
	<math>~=~</math>	<math>~ \biggl( \frac{3}{2^4} \biggr) \frac{\nu^2}{q} \cdot \frac{1}{\ell_i^5} \biggl[ \ell_i \biggl(\ell_i^4 - \frac{8}{3} \ell_i^2 -1 \biggr) + (1 + \ell_i^2)^{3}\tan^{-1}(\ell_i) \biggr] </math>

Out of equilibrium, then, we should expect,

<math>~\frac{W_\mathrm{core}}{E_\mathrm{norm}} </math>	<math>~=~</math>	<math>~ - \chi^{-1} \biggl( \frac{3}{2^4} \biggr) \frac{\nu^2}{q} \cdot \frac{1}{\ell_i^5} \biggl[ \ell_i \biggl(\ell_i^4 - \frac{8}{3} \ell_i^2 -1 \biggr) + (1 + \ell_i^2)^{3}\tan^{-1}(\ell_i) \biggr] </math>

which, in comparison with our above approximate expression, implies,

<math>~\mathfrak{a}_c </math>

<math>~ \biggl( \frac{3}{2^5} \biggr) \frac{\nu}{\ell_i^5} \biggl[ \ell_i \biggl(\ell_i^4 - \frac{8}{3} \ell_i^2 -1 \biggr) + (1 + \ell_i^2)^{3}\tan^{-1}(\ell_i) \biggr] \, . </math>

Thermal Energy of the Core

Again, pulling from our detailed derivations,

<math>~\biggl[ \frac{S_\mathrm{core}}{E_\mathrm{norm}}\biggr]_\mathrm{eq}</math>	<math>~=~</math>	<math>~ \frac{1}{2} \biggl( \frac{3^8}{2^5\pi} \biggr)^{1/2} \biggl[ \ell_i (\ell_i^4 - 1 )(1+\ell_i^2)^{-3} + \tan^{-1}(\ell_i) \biggr] </math>
<math>~\Rightarrow ~~~~ \chi_\mathrm{eq}^{3} \biggl[ \frac{S_\mathrm{core}}{E_\mathrm{norm}}\biggr]^5_\mathrm{eq}</math>	<math>~=~</math>	<math>~ \frac{1}{2^5} \biggl( \frac{3^8}{2^5\pi} \biggr)^{5/2} \biggl[ \ell_i (\ell_i^4 - 1 )(1+\ell_i^2)^{-3} + \tan^{-1}(\ell_i) \biggr]^5 \biggl[\biggl(\frac{\pi}{2^3}\biggr)^{1/2} \frac{\nu^2}{q} \cdot \frac{(1+\ell_i^2)^3}{3^3\ell_i^5}\biggr]^{3} </math>
	<math>~=~</math>	<math>~ \frac{1}{\pi}\biggl(\frac{3}{2^{2}}\biggr)^{11} \biggl(\frac{\nu^2}{q}\biggr)^{3} \biggl[ \ell_i (\ell_i^4 - 1 )(1+\ell_i^2)^{-3} + \tan^{-1}(\ell_i) \biggr]^5 \biggl[\frac{(1+\ell_i^2)^9}{\ell_i^{15}}\biggr] \, . </math>

Out of equilibrium, we should then expect,

<math>~\frac{S_\mathrm{core}}{E_\mathrm{norm}}</math>

<math>~ \biggl(\frac{3}{2^2\pi} \biggr)^{1/5}\biggl[ \chi^{-1} \biggl(\frac{\nu^2}{q}\biggr) \frac{1}{(1+\ell_i^2)^{2}} \biggr]^{3/5} \biggl(\frac{3}{2^{2}}\biggr)^{2}\mathfrak{L}_i \, . </math>

In comparison with our above approximate expression, we therefore have,

<math>~ \biggl[ \biggl(\frac{3}{2\cdot 5}\biggr)\mathfrak{b}_c \biggl( \frac{3\cdot 5^5}{2^2\pi} \biggr)^{1/5} \biggl(\frac{\nu^2}{q}\biggr)^{3/5} \biggr]^5</math>	<math>~=~</math>	<math>~ \frac{1}{\pi}\biggl(\frac{3}{2^{2}}\biggr)^{11} \biggl(\frac{\nu^2}{q}\biggr)^{3} \biggl[ \ell_i (\ell_i^4 - 1 )(1+\ell_i^2)^{-3} + \tan^{-1}(\ell_i) \biggr]^5 \biggl[\frac{(1+\ell_i^2)^9}{\ell_i^{15}}\biggr] </math>
<math>~\Rightarrow~~~~ \mathfrak{b}_c </math>	<math>~=~</math>	<math>~\frac{ 3 }{2^3\ell_i^{3}(1+\ell_i^2)^{6/5}} \biggl[ \ell_i (\ell_i^4 - 1 ) + (1+\ell_i^2)^{3}\tan^{-1}(\ell_i) \biggr] \, . </math>

Gravitational Potential Energy of the Envelope

Again, pulling from our detailed derivations and appreciating, in particular, that (see, for example, our notes on equilibrium conditions),

<math>~A</math>	<math>~=~</math>	<math>~\frac{\eta_i}{\sin(\eta_i - B)} \, ,</math>
<math>~(\eta_s - B)</math>	<math>~=~</math>	<math>~\pi \, ,</math>
<math>~\eta_i - B</math>	<math>~=~</math>	<math>~\frac{\pi}{2} - \tan^{-1}(\Lambda_i)\, ,</math>

<math>~\Rightarrow ~~~ \sin(\eta_i -B) = (1+\Lambda_i^2)^{-1/2}</math>

and

<math>~\sin[2(\eta_i-B)] = 2\Lambda_i(1 + \Lambda_i^2)^{-1} \ ,</math>

we have,

<math>~\biggl[\frac{W_\mathrm{env}}{E_\mathrm{norm}}\biggr]_\mathrm{eq}</math>	<math>~=~</math>	<math>~ -\biggl( \frac{1}{2^3\pi} \biggr)^{1/2} \biggl( \frac{\mu_e}{\mu_c} \biggr)^{-3} A^2 \biggl\{ \biggl[6(\eta_s-B) - 3\sin[2(\eta_s - B)] -4\eta_s\sin^2(\eta_s-B) + 4B\biggr] </math>
		<math>~ - \biggl[6(\eta_i-B) - 3\sin[2(\eta_i - B)] -4\eta_i\sin^2(\eta_i-B) + 4B \biggr]\biggr\} </math>
	<math>~=~</math>	<math>~ -\biggl( \frac{1}{2^3\pi} \biggr)^{1/2} \biggl( \frac{\mu_e}{\mu_c} \biggr)^{-3} \biggl[\frac{\eta_i}{\sin(\eta_i - B)} \biggr]^2 \biggl\{ 6\pi - \biggl[6(\eta_i-B) - 3\sin[2(\eta_i - B)] -4\eta_i\sin^2(\eta_i-B) \biggr]\biggr\} </math>
	<math>~=~</math>	<math>~ -\biggl( \frac{1}{2^3\pi} \biggr)^{1/2} \biggl( \frac{\mu_e}{\mu_c} \biggr)^{-3} \eta_i^2(1+\Lambda_i^2) \biggl\{ 6\pi - 6\biggl[\frac{\pi}{2} - \tan^{-1}(\Lambda_i)\biggr] + 6\biggl[ \frac{\Lambda_i}{(1 + \Lambda_i^2)} \biggr] + 4\eta_i \biggl[ \frac{1}{(1+\Lambda_i^2)} \biggr] \biggr\} </math>
	<math>~=~</math>	<math>~ -\biggl( \frac{3^2}{2\pi} \biggr)^{1/2} \biggl( \frac{\mu_e}{\mu_c} \biggr)^{-3} \eta_i^2 \biggl\{ (1+\Lambda_i^2)\biggl[\frac{\pi}{2}+\tan^{-1}(\Lambda_i)\biggr] + \Lambda_i + \frac{2}{3} \cdot \eta_i \biggr\} \, . </math>

So, in equilibrium we can write,

<math>~-\chi_\mathrm{eq}\biggl[\frac{W_\mathrm{env}}{E_\mathrm{norm}}\biggr]_\mathrm{eq}</math>	<math>~=~</math>	<math>~ \biggl( \frac{3^2}{2\pi} \biggr)^{1/2} \biggl( \frac{\mu_e}{\mu_c} \biggr)^{-3} \eta_i^2 \biggl\{ (1+\Lambda_i^2)\biggl[\frac{\pi}{2}+\tan^{-1}(\Lambda_i)\biggr] + \Lambda_i + \frac{2}{3} \cdot \eta_i \biggr\} \biggl(\frac{\pi}{2^3}\biggr)^{1/2} \frac{\nu^2}{q} \cdot \frac{(1+\ell_i^2)^3}{3^3\ell_i^5} </math>
	<math>~=~</math>	<math>~ \frac{3}{2^2} \biggl(\frac{\eta_i}{m_3}\biggr)^3 \biggl\{ \frac{(1+\Lambda_i^2)}{\eta_i} \biggl[\frac{\pi}{2}+\tan^{-1}(\Lambda_i)\biggr] + \frac{\Lambda_i}{\eta_i} + \frac{2}{3} \biggr\} \frac{\nu^2}{q} \cdot \frac{(1+\ell_i^2)^3}{\ell_i^5} </math>
	<math>~=~</math>	<math>~ \frac{3}{2^2} \biggl(\frac{\nu^2}{q} \biggr) \frac{1}{\ell_i^2} \biggl\{ \frac{(1+\Lambda_i^2)}{\eta_i} \biggl[\frac{\pi}{2}+\tan^{-1}(\Lambda_i)\biggr] + \frac{\Lambda_i}{\eta_i} + \frac{2}{3} \biggr\} \, . </math>

And out of equilibrium,

<math>~\frac{W_\mathrm{env}}{E_\mathrm{norm}}</math>

<math>~ -\chi^{-1}\cdot \frac{3}{2^2} \biggl(\frac{\nu^2}{q} \biggr) \frac{1}{\ell_i^2} \biggl[\mathfrak{K}_i+ \frac{2}{3} \biggr] \, . </math>

This, in turn, implies that both in and out of equilibrium,

<math>~\mathfrak{a}_e </math>

<math>~ \frac{3}{2^3} \biggl[\frac{\nu^2(1+q)}{q(1-\nu)} \biggr] \frac{1}{\ell_i^2} \biggl\{ \frac{(1+\Lambda_i^2)}{\eta_i} \biggl[\frac{\pi}{2}+\tan^{-1}(\Lambda_i)\biggr] + \frac{\Lambda_i}{\eta_i} + \frac{2}{3} \biggr\} \, . </math>

Thermal Energy of the Envelope

Again, pulling from our detailed derivations,

<math>~\biggl[\frac{S_\mathrm{env}}{E_\mathrm{norm}} \biggr]_\mathrm{eq}</math>	<math>~=~</math>	<math>~ ~ \biggl( \frac{1}{2^5\pi} \biggr)^{1/2} \biggl( \frac{\mu_e}{\mu_c} \biggr)^{-3} A^2 \biggl\{ \biggl[6(\eta_s - B) - 3\sin[2(\eta_s-B)] \biggr] - \biggl[6(\eta_i - B) - 3\sin[2(\eta_i-B)] \biggr] \biggr\}</math>
	<math>~=~</math>	<math>~ ~ \biggl( \frac{1}{2^5\pi} \biggr)^{1/2} \biggl( \frac{\mu_e}{\mu_c} \biggr)^{-3} \biggl[\frac{\eta_i}{\sin(\eta_i - B)} \biggr]^2 \biggl\{ 6\pi - 6(\eta_i - B) + 3\sin[2(\eta_i-B)] \biggr\}</math>
	<math>~=~</math>	<math>~ ~ \biggl( \frac{1}{2^5\pi} \biggr)^{1/2} \biggl( \frac{\mu_e}{\mu_c} \biggr)^{-3} \eta_i^2 (1 + \Lambda_i^2) \biggl\{ 6\biggl[\frac{\pi}{2} + \tan^{-1}(\Lambda_i) \biggr] + 6\biggl[\Lambda_i(1 + \Lambda_i^2)^{-1} \biggr] \biggr\}</math>
	<math>~=~</math>	<math>~ ~\frac{1}{2} \biggl( \frac{3^2}{2\pi} \biggr)^{1/2} \biggl( \frac{\mu_e}{\mu_c} \biggr)^{-3} \eta_i^2 \biggl\{ (1 + \Lambda_i^2)\biggl[\frac{\pi}{2} + \tan^{-1}(\Lambda_i) \biggr] + \Lambda_i \biggr\} \, .</math>

So, in equilibrium we can write,

<math>~\chi_\mathrm{eq}^{3}\biggl[\frac{S_\mathrm{env}}{E_\mathrm{norm}} \biggr]_\mathrm{eq}</math>	<math>~=~</math>	<math>~ ~\frac{1}{2} \biggl( \frac{3^2}{2\pi} \biggr)^{1/2} \biggl( \frac{\mu_e}{\mu_c} \biggr)^{-3} \eta_i^2 \biggl\{ (1 + \Lambda_i^2)\biggl[\frac{\pi}{2} + \tan^{-1}(\Lambda_i) \biggr] + \Lambda_i \biggr\} \biggl[\biggl(\frac{\pi}{2^3}\biggr)^{1/2} \frac{\nu^2}{q} \cdot \frac{(1+\ell_i^2)^3}{3^3\ell_i^5}\biggr]^{3} </math>
	<math>~=~</math>	<math>~ ~\biggl(\frac{\nu^2}{q} \biggr)^3 \biggl( \frac{3^2\pi^2}{2^{12}} \biggr)^{1/2} \biggl( \frac{\mu_e}{\mu_c} \biggr)^{-3} \eta_i^3 \biggl\{ \frac{(1 + \Lambda_i^2)}{\eta_i}\biggl[\frac{\pi}{2} + \tan^{-1}(\Lambda_i) \biggr] + \frac{\Lambda_i}{\eta_i} \biggr\} \biggl[\frac{(1+\ell_i^2)^9}{3^9\ell_i^{15}}\biggr] </math>
	<math>~=~</math>	<math>~ ~\biggl(\frac{\nu^2}{q} \biggr)^3 \biggl( \frac{\pi}{2^{6}\cdot 3^5} \biggr) \biggl[\frac{(1+\ell_i^2)^6}{\ell_i^{12}}\biggr] \biggl\{ \frac{(1 + \Lambda_i^2)}{\eta_i}\biggl[\frac{\pi}{2} + \tan^{-1}(\Lambda_i) \biggr] + \frac{\Lambda_i}{\eta_i} \biggr\} \, . </math>

And, out of equilibrium,

<math>~\biggl[\frac{S_\mathrm{env}}{E_\mathrm{norm}} \biggr]_\mathrm{eq}</math>

<math>~ ~ \chi^{-3}\biggl(\frac{\nu^2}{q} \biggr)^3 \biggl( \frac{\pi}{2^{6}\cdot 3^5} \biggr) \biggl[\frac{(1+\ell_i^2)^6}{\ell_i^{12}}\biggr]\mathfrak{K} \, . </math>

Combined in Equilibrium

Notice that, in combination,

<math>~\biggl[\frac{2S_\mathrm{env} + W_\mathrm{env}}{E_\mathrm{norm}} \biggr]_\mathrm{eq}</math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ - \frac{2}{3}\biggl( \frac{3^2}{2\pi} \biggr)^{1/2} \biggl( \frac{\mu_e}{\mu_c} \biggr)^{-3} \eta_i^3 </math>
	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ - \frac{2}{3}\biggl( \frac{3^2}{2\pi} \biggr)^{1/2} \biggl( \frac{\mu_e}{\mu_c} \biggr)^{-3} \biggl[3 \biggl( \frac{\mu_e}{\mu_c} \biggr) \ell_i \biggl( 1 + \ell_i^2 \biggr)^{-1}\biggr]^3 </math>
	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ - \biggl( \frac{2\cdot 3^6}{\pi} \biggr)^{1/2} \biggl[\frac{\ell_i^3}{( 1 + \ell_i^2)^3}\biggr] \, . </math>

Also, from above,

<math>~\biggl[ \frac{2S_\mathrm{core}+W_\mathrm{core}}{E_\mathrm{norm}} \biggr]_\mathrm{eq}</math>	<math>~=~</math>	<math>~ - \biggl( \frac{3^8}{2^5\pi } \biggr)^{1/2} \biggl[ \ell_i \biggl(- \frac{8}{3} \ell_i^2 \biggr) (1 + \ell_i^2)^{-3} \biggr] </math>
	<math>~=~</math>	<math>~ + \biggl( \frac{2\cdot 3^6}{\pi } \biggr)^{1/2} \biggl[ \frac{\ell_i^3}{(1 + \ell_i^2)^{3}} \biggr] \, .</math>

So, in equilibrium, these terms from the core and envelope sum to zero, as they should.

Out of Equilibrium

And now, in combination out of equilibrium,

<math>~\frac{\mathfrak{G}}{E_\mathrm{norm}} </math>

<math>~ \biggl(\frac{\chi}{\chi_\mathrm{eq}}\biggr)^{-1} \biggl\{ \biggl[ \frac{W_\mathrm{core}}{E_\mathrm{norm}}\biggr]_\mathrm{eq} + \biggl[\frac{W_\mathrm{env}}{E_\mathrm{norm}}\biggr]_\mathrm{eq}\biggr\} +\biggl(\frac{\chi}{\chi_\mathrm{eq}}\biggr)^{-3/5} \biggl(\frac{2n_c}{3}\biggr) \biggl[ \frac{S_\mathrm{core}}{E_\mathrm{norm}}\biggr]_\mathrm{eq} +\biggl(\frac{\chi}{\chi_\mathrm{eq}}\biggr)^{-3} \biggl(\frac{2n_e}{3}\biggr)\biggl[\frac{S_\mathrm{env}}{E_\mathrm{norm}}\biggr]_\mathrm{eq} \, . </math>

Hence, quite generally out of equilibrium,

<math>~\frac{\partial}{\partial \chi} \biggl[ \frac{\mathfrak{G}}{E_\mathrm{norm}} \biggr] </math>

<math>~ -\chi^{-1}\biggl(\frac{\chi}{\chi_\mathrm{eq}}\biggr)^{-1} \biggl\{ \biggl[ \frac{W_\mathrm{core}}{E_\mathrm{norm}}\biggr]_\mathrm{eq} + \biggl[\frac{W_\mathrm{env}}{E_\mathrm{norm}}\biggr]_\mathrm{eq}\biggr\} -\frac{3}{5}\chi^{-1}\biggl(\frac{\chi}{\chi_\mathrm{eq}}\biggr)^{-3/5} \biggl(\frac{10}{3}\biggr) \biggl[ \frac{S_\mathrm{core}}{E_\mathrm{norm}}\biggr]_\mathrm{eq} -3\chi^{-1}\biggl(\frac{\chi}{\chi_\mathrm{eq}}\biggr)^{-3} \biggl(\frac{2}{3}\biggr)\biggl[\frac{S_\mathrm{env}}{E_\mathrm{norm}}\biggr]_\mathrm{eq} \, . </math>

Let's see what the value of this derivative is if the dimensionless radius, <math>~\chi</math>, is set to the value that has been determined, via a detailed force-balanced analysis, to be the equilibrium radius, namely, <math>~\chi = \chi_\mathrm{eq}</math>. In this case, we have,

<math>~\biggl\{\frac{\partial}{\partial \chi} \biggl[ \frac{\mathfrak{G}}{E_\mathrm{norm}} \biggr] \biggr\}_\mathrm{\chi \rightarrow \chi_\mathrm{eq}}</math>

<math>~ -\chi_\mathrm{eq}^{-1}\biggl\{ \biggl[ \frac{W_\mathrm{core}}{E_\mathrm{norm}}\biggr]_\mathrm{eq} + \biggl[\frac{W_\mathrm{env}}{E_\mathrm{norm}}\biggr]_\mathrm{eq} +2\biggl[ \frac{S_\mathrm{core}}{E_\mathrm{norm}}\biggr]_\mathrm{eq} +2\biggl[\frac{S_\mathrm{env}}{E_\mathrm{norm}}\biggr]_\mathrm{eq} \biggr\} \, . </math>

But, according to the virial theorem — and, as we have just demonstrated — the four terms inside the curly braces sum to zero. So this demonstrates that the derivative of our out-of-equilibrium free-energy expression does go to zero at the equilibrium radius, as it should!

In summary, the desired out of equilibrium free-energy expression is,

Consistent with our generic discussion of the stability of bipolytropes and the specific discussion of the stability of bipolytropes having <math>~(n_c, n_e) = (5, 1)</math>, it can straightforwardly be shown that <math>~\partial \mathfrak{G}/\partial \chi = 0</math> is satisfied by setting <math>~\Chi = 1</math>; that is, the equilibrium condition is,

<math>~\chi = \chi_\mathrm{eq}</math>

<math>~\biggl(\frac{\pi}{2^3}\biggr)^{1/2} \frac{\nu^2}{q} \cdot \frac{(1+\ell_i^2)^3}{3^3\ell_i^5} \, .</math>

Furthermore, the equilibrium configuration is unstable whenever <math>~\partial^2 \mathfrak{G}/\partial \chi^2 < 0</math>, that is, it is unstable whenever,

<math>~\frac{ \mathfrak{L}_i}{\mathfrak{K}_i}</math>

Table 1 of an accompanying chapter — and the red-dashed curve in the figure adjacent to that table — identifies some key properties of the model that marks the transition from stable to unstable configurations along equilibrium sequences that have various values of the mean-molecular weight ratio, <math>~\mu_e/\mu_c</math>.

Focus on Zero-Zero Free-Energy Expression

Here, we will draw heavily from the following accompanying chapters:

From Detailed Force-Balance Models

Equilibrium Radius

First View

In an accompanying chapter we find,

<math>~ \frac{P_0 R_\mathrm{eq}^4}{G M_\mathrm{tot}^2 } </math>

<math>~\biggl( \frac{3}{2^3 \pi} \biggr) \biggl( \frac{\nu}{q^3}\biggr)^2 \biggl[ q^2 + \frac{2}{5} q^5( f - 1-\mathfrak{F} )\biggr] </math>

where,

<math>~f</math>	<math>~\equiv</math>	<math> 1+ \frac{5}{2} \biggl( \frac{\rho_e}{\rho_c} \biggr) \biggl(\frac{1}{q^2}-1 \biggr) +\biggl( \frac{\rho_e}{\rho_c} \biggr)^2 \biggl[ \frac{1}{q^5}-1 + \frac{5}{2} \biggl( 1-\frac{1}{q^2}\biggr)\biggr] \, , </math>
<math>~\mathfrak{F} </math>	<math>~\equiv</math>	<math>~ \frac{5}{2} \biggl( \frac{\rho_e}{\rho_c} \biggr) \frac{1}{q^5} \biggl[ (-2q^2 + 3q^3 - q^5) + \frac{3}{5} \biggl( \frac{\rho_e}{\rho_c}\biggr) (-1 +5q^2 - 5q^3 + q^5) \biggr] \, , </math>
<math>~\frac{\rho_e}{\rho_c} </math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ \frac{q^3(1-\nu)}{\nu(1-q^3)} \, . </math>

Here, we prefer to normalize the equilibrium radius to <math>~R_\mathrm{norm}</math>. So, let's replace the central pressure with its expression in terms of <math>~K_c</math>. Specifically,

<math>~P_0</math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ K_c \rho_c^{\gamma_c} = K_c \biggl[ \frac{3M_\mathrm{core}}{4\pi R_i^3} \biggr]^{\gamma_c} = K_c \biggl[ \frac{3\nu M_\mathrm{tot}}{4\pi q^3 R_\mathrm{eq}^3} \biggr]^{(n_c+1)/n_c} ~~~\Rightarrow~~~ \frac{P_0}{P_\mathrm{norm}} = \biggl[ \frac{3}{4\pi}\biggl(\frac{\nu}{q^3}\biggr) \frac{1}{\chi_\mathrm{eq}^3}\biggr]^{(n_c+1)/n_c} </math>
<math>~\Rightarrow~~~K_c \biggl[ \frac{3\nu M_\mathrm{tot}}{4\pi q^3 R_\mathrm{eq}^3} \biggr]^{(n_c+1)/n_c} \frac{R_\mathrm{eq}^4}{G M_\mathrm{tot}^2 } </math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~\biggl( \frac{3}{2^3 \pi} \biggr) \biggl( \frac{\nu}{q^3}\biggr)^2 \biggl[ q^2 + \frac{2}{5} q^5( f - 1-\mathfrak{F} )\biggr] </math>

<math>~\Rightarrow~~~\chi_\mathrm{eq}^{(n_c-3)/n_c} \equiv \biggl[\frac{R_\mathrm{eq}}{R_\mathrm{norm}}\biggr]^{(n_c-3)/n_c}</math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ \frac{1}{2}\biggl(\frac{4\pi}{3} \biggr)^{1/n_c} \biggl( \frac{\nu}{q^3}\biggr)^{(n_c-1)/n_c} \biggl[ q^2 + \frac{2}{5} q^5( f - 1-\mathfrak{F} )\biggr] \, . </math>

Or, in terms of <math>~\gamma_c</math>,

<math>~\chi_\mathrm{eq}^{4-3\gamma_c} </math>

<math>~ \frac{1}{2}\biggl(\frac{3}{4\pi} \biggr)^{1-\gamma_c} \biggl( \frac{\nu}{q^3}\biggr)^{2-\gamma_c} \biggl[ q^2 + \frac{2}{5} q^5( f - 1-\mathfrak{F} )\biggr] \, . </math>

Second View

Alternatively, from our derivation and discussion of analytic detailed force-balance models,

<math> \biggl[ \frac{R^4}{GM_\mathrm{tot}^2} \biggr] P_0</math>

<math>\biggl( \frac{3}{2^3\pi} \biggr) \frac{\nu^2 g^2}{q^4} \, ,</math>

where,

<math>~\equiv</math>

In order to show that this expression is the same as the other one, above, we need to show that,

<math>~\biggl( \frac{3}{2^3 \pi} \biggr) \biggl( \frac{\nu}{q^3}\biggr)^2 \biggl[ q^2 + \frac{2}{5} q^5( f - 1-\mathfrak{F} )\biggr] </math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>\biggl( \frac{3}{2^3\pi} \biggr) \frac{\nu^2 g^2}{q^4} </math>

Q.E.D.

Hence, the equilibrium radius can also be written as,

<math>~\chi_\mathrm{eq}^{4-3\gamma_c} </math>

<math>~ \frac{1}{2}\biggl(\frac{3}{4\pi} \biggr)^{1-\gamma_c} \biggl( \frac{\nu}{q^3}\biggr)^{2-\gamma_c} q^2 g^2 \, ; </math>

or, in terms of the polytropic index,

<math>~ \frac{1}{2^{n_c}}\biggl(\frac{4\pi}{3} \biggr) \biggl( \frac{\nu}{q^3}\biggr)^{n_c-1} (q g)^{2n_c} \, . </math>

Internal Energy Components

First View

Before writing out the expressions for the internal energy of the core and of the envelope, we note from our separate detailed derivation that, in either case,

Second View

In our accompanying discussion of energies associated with detailed force balance models, we used the notation,

<math>~\equiv</math>

<math>~ \biggl(\frac{3}{2^3\pi}\biggr) \frac{GM_\mathrm{tot}^2}{R^4} \biggl(\frac{\nu}{q^3}\biggr)^2 = P_\mathrm{norm} \chi^{-4}\biggl(\frac{3}{2^3\pi}\biggr) \biggl(\frac{\nu}{q^3}\biggr)^2 \, , </math>

which allows us to rewrite the above quoted relationship between the central pressure and the radius of the bipolytrope as,

We also showed that, in equilibrium, the relationship between the central pressure and the interface pressure is,

<math>~P_0 =P_i + \Pi_\mathrm{eq} q^2 \, .</math>

This means that, in equilibrium, the ratio of the interface pressure to the central pressure is,

<math>~\biggl(\frac{P_i}{P_0}\biggr)_\mathrm{eq}</math>

<math>~1 - \frac{\Pi_\mathrm{eq} q^2}{P_0} = 1- \frac{1}{g^2} \, , </math>

or given that (see above),

<math>~

\frac{5}{2q^3} \biggl[g^2-1\biggr]

</math>

<math>~ f - 1-\mathfrak{F} </math>

<math>~\Rightarrow~~~~ g^2 </math>

<math>~ 1+\frac{2}{5} q^3 ( f - 1-\mathfrak{F} ) \, , </math>

we have,

<math>~\biggl(\frac{P_i}{P_0}\biggr)_\mathrm{eq}</math>

<math>~1 - \frac{\Pi_\mathrm{eq} q^2}{P_0} = 1- \biggl[ 1+\frac{2}{5} q^3 ( f - 1-\mathfrak{F} ) \biggr]^{-1} \, . </math>

This is exactly the pressure-ratio expression presented in our "first view" and unveils the notation association,

<math>~\leftrightarrow~</math>

From our separate derivation, we have, in equilibrium,

	<math>~=~</math>	<math>~n_c \biggl[ 1- \biggl(\frac{3}{5}\biggr) \frac{1}{g^2} \biggr] \biggl\{2^{n_c}\cdot 2^{(3-n_c)}\biggl(\frac{3}{4\pi} \biggr) \biggl( \frac{\nu}{q^3}\biggr)^{1-n_c} \biggl(\frac{\nu}{q^3}\biggr)^{2(n_c-3)} q^{5(n_c-3)} q^{-2n_c} g^{-2n_c} g^{2(n_c-3)} \biggr\}^{1/(n_c-3)}</math>

Finally, switching from the <math>~g</math> notation to the <math>~b_\xi</math> notation gives,

<math>~\biggl[ \frac{\mathfrak{G}_\mathrm{core} }{E_\mathrm{norm}}\biggr]_\mathrm{eq} </math>	<math>~=~</math>	<math>~n_c \biggl[ 1- \biggl(\frac{3}{5}\biggr) b_\xi q^2 \biggr] \biggl\{\biggl(\frac{2\cdot 3}{\pi} \biggr) \biggl( \frac{\nu}{q^3}\biggr)^{n_c-5} q^{3n_c-15} b_\xi^3 q^{6} \biggr\}^{1/(n_c-3)} </math>
	<math>~=~</math>	<math>~n_c q^3 \biggl[ 1- \biggl(\frac{3}{5}\biggr) b_\xi q^2 \biggr] \biggl\{\biggl(\frac{2\cdot 3}{\pi} \biggr) \biggl( \frac{\nu}{q^3}\biggr)^{n_c-5} b_\xi^3 \biggr\}^{1/(n_c-3)} \, ,</math>

which, after setting <math>~\Chi = 1</math>, precisely matches the above, "first view" expression. Also from our previous derivation, we can write,

<math>~\frac{n_e}{3}\biggl[ \frac{3-n_e}{n_c-n_e} \biggr] </math>

<math>~ \frac{A_2}{C_2} = \frac{1}{f} \biggl[1 + q^3 (f - 1-\mathfrak{F} ) \biggr] \, . </math>

<math>~ \frac{1}{\ell_i^2} \biggl[ \Chi^{-3/5} (5 \mathfrak{L}_i) +\Chi^{-3} (4\mathfrak{K}_i) -\Chi^{-1} (3\mathfrak{L}_i +12\mathfrak{K}_i ) \biggr] </math>

where,

<math>~\mathfrak{L}_i</math>	<math>~\equiv</math>	<math>~\frac{(\ell_i^4-1)}{\ell_i^2} + \frac{(1+\ell_i^2)^3}{\ell_i^3} \cdot \tan^{-1}\ell_i \, ,</math>

<math>~\eta_i</math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~3 \biggl( \frac{\mu_e}{\mu_c} \biggr) \biggl[\frac{\ell_i }{(1+\ell_i^2)}\biggr] \, .</math>

From the accompanying Table 1 parameter values, we also can write,

<math>~\frac{1}{q}</math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~\frac{\eta_s}{\eta_i} = 1 + \frac{1}{\eta_i}\biggl[\frac{\pi}{2} + \tan^{-1}\Lambda_i \biggr] \, ,</math>
<math>~\nu</math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ \frac{\ell_i q}{(1+\Lambda_i^2)^{1/2}} \, . </math>

Consistent with our generic discussion of the stability of bipolytropes and the specific discussion of the stability of bipolytropes having <math>~(n_c, n_e) = (5, 1)</math>, it can straightforwardly be shown that <math>~\partial \mathfrak{G}^*_{51}/\partial \chi = 0</math> is satisfied by setting <math>~\Chi = 1</math>; that is, the equilibrium condition is,

<math>~\chi = \chi_\mathrm{eq}</math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~\biggl(\frac{\pi}{2^3}\biggr)^{1/2} \frac{\nu^2}{q} \cdot \frac{(1+\ell_i^2)^3}{3^3\ell_i^5} </math>
	<math>~=</math>	<math>~\biggl\{ \biggl(\frac{\pi}{3}\biggr) 2^{2-n_c} \nu^{n_c-1} q^{3-n_c} \biggl[\frac{(1+\ell_i^2)^{6/5}}{(3\ell_i^2)} \biggr]^{n_c} \biggr\}^{1/(n_c-3)} \, ,</math>

where the last expression has been cast into a form that more clearly highlights overlap with the expression, below, for the equilibrium radius for zero-zero bipolytropes. Furthermore, the equilibrium configuration is unstable whenever,

<math>~\biggl[ \frac{\partial^2 \mathfrak{G}^*_{51}}{\partial \chi^2}\biggr]_{\Chi=1} < 0 \, ,</math>

that is, it is unstable whenever,

<math>~\frac{ \mathfrak{L}_i}{\mathfrak{K}_i}</math>

Table 1 of an accompanying chapter — and the red-dashed curve in the figure adjacent to that table — identifies some key properties of the model that marks the transition from stable to unstable configurations along equilibrium sequences that have various values of the mean-molecular weight ratio, <math>~\mu_e/\mu_c</math>.

Behavior of Equilibrium Sequence

Here we reprint Figure 1 from an accompanying chapter wherein the structure of five-one bipolytropes has been derived. It displays detailed force-balance sequences in the <math>~q - \nu</math> plane for a variety of choices of the ratio of mean-molecular-weights, <math>~\mu_e/\mu_c</math>, as labeled.

Limiting Values

Each sequence begins <math>~(\ell_i = 0)</math> at the origin, that is, at <math>~(q,\nu) = (0,0)</math>. As <math>~\ell_i \rightarrow \infty</math>, however, the sequences terminate at different coordinate locations, depending on the value of <math>~m_3 \equiv 3(\mu_e/\mu_c)</math>. In deriving the various limits, it will be useful to note that,

<math>~\frac{1}{\eta_i}</math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~\frac{(1 + \ell_i^2)}{m_3 \ell_i} \, ,</math>
<math>~\Lambda_i</math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~\frac{(1+\ell_i^2)}{m_3\ell_i}-\ell_i</math>

Summarizing:

For <math>~\mu_e/\mu_c < \tfrac{1}{3}</math>, that is, <math>~m_3 < 1</math> … <math>~(q,\nu)_{\ell_i \rightarrow \infty} = (0, 0) \, .</math>

For <math>~\mu_e/\mu_c = \tfrac{1}{3}</math>, that is, <math>~m_3 = 1</math> … <math>~(q,\nu)_{\ell_i \rightarrow \infty} = (0, \tfrac{2}{\pi}) \, .</math>

For <math>~\mu_e/\mu_c > \tfrac{1}{3}</math>, that is, <math>~m_3 > 1</math> … <math>~(q,\nu)_{\ell_i \rightarrow \infty} = [(m_3-1)/m_3, 1] \, .</math>

Turning Points

Let's identify the location of two turning points along the <math>~\nu(q)</math> sequence — one defines <math>~q_\mathrm{max}</math> and the other identifies <math>~\nu_\mathrm{max}</math>. They occur, respectively, where,

and

In deriving these expressions, we will use the relations,

<math>~\frac{d\eta_i}{d\ell_i}</math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~\frac{m_3 (1-\ell_i^2)}{(1+\ell_i^2)^2} \, ,</math>
<math>~\frac{d\Lambda_i}{d\ell_i}</math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~- \frac{1}{m_3\ell_i^2} \biggl[ 1 - \ell_i^2(1-m_3) \biggr] \, ,</math>

where,

<math>~m_3 \equiv 3\biggl(\frac{\mu_e}{\mu_c}\biggr) \, .</math>

Given that,

<math>~\biggl\{ 1 + \frac{1}{\eta_i}\biggl[\frac{\pi}{2} + \tan^{-1}\Lambda_i \biggr] \biggr\}^{-1} \, ,</math>

we find,

<math>~\frac{d\ln q}{d\ln \ell_i}</math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~\frac{\ell_i}{q} \cdot ( -q^2) \frac{d}{d\ell_i} \biggl\{ \frac{1}{\eta_i}\biggl[\frac{\pi}{2} + \tan^{-1}\Lambda_i \biggr] \biggr\} </math>
	<math>~=</math>	<math>~-q\ell_i \biggl\{-\frac{1}{\eta_i^2}\biggl[\frac{\pi}{2} + \tan^{-1}\Lambda_i \biggr]\frac{d\eta_i}{d\ell_i} + \frac{1}{\eta_i(1+\Lambda_i^2)} \frac{d\Lambda_i}{d\ell_i} \biggr\} </math>
	<math>~=</math>	<math>~q\ell_i \biggl\{\frac{(1-\ell_i^2)}{m_3 \ell_i^2}\biggl[\frac{\pi}{2} + \tan^{-1}\Lambda_i \biggr] + \frac{(1+\ell_i^2)}{m_3^2 \ell_i^3(1+\Lambda_i^2)} \biggl[ 1 - \ell_i^2(1-m_3) \biggr] \biggr\} </math>
	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ \frac{q}{m_3^2}{\ell_i^2}\biggl\{m_3 \ell_i (1-\ell_i^2) \biggl[\frac{\pi}{2} + \tan^{-1}\Lambda_i \biggr] + \frac{(1+\ell_i^2)}{(1+\Lambda_i^2)} \biggl[ 1 - \ell_i^2(1-m_3) \biggr] \biggr\} \, . </math>

And, given that,

<math>~ \frac{\ell_i q}{(1+\Lambda_i^2)^{1/2}} \, . </math>

we find,

<math>~\frac{d\ln \nu}{d\ln \ell_i}</math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~\frac{\ell_i}{\nu} \biggl\{ \frac{q}{(1+\Lambda_i^2)^{1/2}} + \frac{q}{(1+\Lambda_i^2)^{1/2}} \frac{d\ln q}{d\ln \ell_i} - \frac{\ell_i q \Lambda_i }{(1+\Lambda_i^2)^{3/2}} \frac{d\Lambda_i}{d\ell_i} \biggr\} </math>
	<math>~=</math>	<math>~\frac{q \ell_i}{ \nu(1+\Lambda_i^2)^{1/2}}\biggl\{ 1 + \frac{d\ln q}{d\ln \ell_i} + \frac{\Lambda_i }{m_3 \ell_i (1+\Lambda_i^2)} \biggl[ 1 - \ell_i^2(1-m_3) \biggr] \biggr\} </math>

In summary, then, the <math>~q_\mathrm{max}</math> turning point occurs where,

<math>~ (1+\Lambda_i^2)\biggl[\frac{\pi}{2} + \tan^{-1}\Lambda_i \biggr] + \frac{(1+\ell_i^2)}{m_3 \ell_i (1-\ell_i^2)} \biggl[ 1 - \ell_i^2(1-m_3) \biggr] \, ; </math>

and the <math>~\nu_\mathrm{max}</math> turning point occurs where,

<math>~0</math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ 1 + \frac{\Lambda_i }{m_3 \ell_i (1+\Lambda_i^2)} \biggl[ 1 - \ell_i^2(1-m_3) \biggr] + \frac{q \ell_i^3 (1-\ell_i^2)}{m_3} \biggl[\frac{\pi}{2} + \tan^{-1}\Lambda_i \biggr] + \frac{q\ell_i^2}{m_3^2}\cdot \frac{(1+\ell_i^2)}{(1+\Lambda_i^2)} \biggl[ 1 - \ell_i^2(1-m_3) \biggr] </math>
	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ 1 + \frac{q \ell_i^3 (1-\ell_i^2)}{m_3} \biggl[\frac{\pi}{2} + \tan^{-1}\Lambda_i \biggr] + \biggl[ \frac{\Lambda_i }{m_3 \ell_i (1+\Lambda_i^2)} + \frac{q\ell_i^2}{m_3^2}\cdot \frac{(1+\ell_i^2)}{(1+\Lambda_i^2)} \biggr] \cdot \biggl[ 1 - \ell_i^2(1-m_3) \biggr] </math>
	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ 1 + \frac{q \ell_i^3 (1-\ell_i^2)}{m_3} \biggl[\frac{\pi}{2} + \tan^{-1}\Lambda_i \biggr] + \frac{1}{m_3 \ell_i} \biggl[ \frac{\Lambda_i }{(1+\Lambda_i^2)} + \frac{q\ell_i^3}{m_3}\cdot \frac{(1+\ell_i^2)}{(1+\Lambda_i^2)} \biggr] \cdot \biggl[ 1 - \ell_i^2(1-m_3) \biggr] \, . </math>

NOTE: As we show above, for the special case of <math>~m_3 = 1</math> — that is, when <math>~\mu_e/\mu_c = \tfrac{1}{3}</math>, precisely — the equilibrium sequence (as <math>~\ell_i \rightarrow \infty</math>) intersects the <math>~q = 0</math> axis at precisely the value, <math>~\nu = 2/\pi</math>. As is illustrated graphically in Figure 1 of an accompanying chapter, no <math>~\nu_\mathrm{max}</math> turning point exists for values of <math>~m_3 > 1</math>.

For the record, we repeat, as well, that the transition from stable to dynamically unstable configurations occurs along the sequence when,

<math>~\frac{(\ell_i^4-1)}{\ell_i^2} + \frac{(1+\ell_i^2)^3}{\ell_i^3} \cdot \tan^{-1}\ell_i </math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~20 \biggl\{ \frac{\Lambda_i}{\eta_i} + \frac{(1+\Lambda_i^2)}{\eta_i} \biggl[\frac{\pi}{2} + \tan^{-1}\Lambda_i\biggr] \biggr\} </math>
	<math>~=</math>	<math>~\frac{20(1+\Lambda_i^2)(1+\ell_i^2)}{m_3\ell_i} \biggl\{ \frac{\Lambda_i}{(1+\Lambda_i^2)} + \biggl[\frac{\pi}{2} + \tan^{-1}\Lambda_i\biggr] \biggr\} </math>
<math>~\Rightarrow ~~~ m_3 \ell_i (\ell_i^4-1) + m_3(1+\ell_i^2)^3\cdot \tan^{-1}\ell_i </math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~20\ell_i^2 (1+\Lambda_i^2)(1+\ell_i^2) \biggl\{ \frac{\Lambda_i}{(1+\Lambda_i^2)} + \biggl[\frac{\pi}{2} + \tan^{-1}\Lambda_i\biggr] \biggr\} </math>
<math>~\Rightarrow ~~~ \frac{m_3 \ell_i (\ell_i^4-1) + m_3(1+\ell_i^2)^3\cdot \tan^{-1}\ell_i }{ 20\ell_i^2 (1+\ell_i^2)}</math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~\Lambda_i + (1+\Lambda_i^2)\biggl[\frac{\pi}{2} + \tan^{-1}\Lambda_i\biggr] \, .</math>

In order to clarify what equilibrium sequences do not have any turning points, let's examine how the <math>~q_\mathrm{max}</math> turning-point expression behaves as <math>~\ell_i \rightarrow \infty</math>.

<math>~ \frac{(1+\ell_i^2)}{(1+\Lambda_i^2)} \biggl[ 1 - \ell_i^2(1-m_3) \biggr]</math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ m_3 \ell_i (\ell_i^2-1) \biggl[\frac{\pi}{2} + \tan^{-1}\Lambda_i \biggr] </math>

<math>~ \Rightarrow ~~~ \frac{(1+\ell_i^2) \ell_i^2(m_3-1)}{ m_3 \ell_i (\ell_i^2-1) } \biggl[ 1 + \frac{1}{\ell_i^2(m_3-1)} \biggr]</math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ \biggl\{ 1 + \frac{(m_3-1)^2 \ell_i^2}{m_3^2}\biggl[ 1 - \frac{1}{ (m_3-1) \ell_i^2 } \biggr]^2 \biggr\} \cdot \frac{1}{(-\Lambda_i)} \biggl[ 1 - \frac{1 }{3\Lambda_i^2} + \cancelto{0}{\mathcal{O}(\Lambda_i^{-4} )}\biggr] </math>
<math>~ \Rightarrow ~~~ \frac{(1+\ell_i^2)}{ \ell_i (\ell_i^2-1) } \cdot \frac{m_3}{(m_3-1)} \biggl[ 1 + \frac{1}{\ell_i^2(m_3-1)} \biggr]</math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~ \biggl[ 1 - \frac{2}{ (m_3-1) \ell_i^2 } + \frac{m_3^2}{(m_3-1)^2 \ell_i^2} + \frac{1}{ (m_3-1)^2 \ell_i^4 } \biggr] \cdot \frac{m_3}{(m_3-1)\ell_i} \biggl[1 - \frac{1}{(m_3-1)\ell_i^2}\biggr]^{-1} \biggl\{ 1 - \frac{m_3^2}{3(m_3-1)^2\ell_i^2} \biggl[1 - \frac{1}{(m_3-1)\ell_i^2}\biggr]^{-2} \biggr\} </math>
<math>~ \Rightarrow ~~~\biggl(1 + \frac{1}{\ell_i^2} \biggr) \biggl[ 1 + \frac{1}{\ell_i^2(m_3-1)} \biggr]\biggl[1 - \frac{1}{(m_3-1)\ell_i^2}\biggr]</math>	<math>~=</math>	<math>~\biggl(1 - \frac{1}{\ell_i^2} \biggr) \biggl[ 1 - \frac{2}{ (m_3-1) \ell_i^2 } + \frac{m_3^2}{(m_3-1)^2 \ell_i^2} + \frac{1}{ (m_3-1)^2 \ell_i^4 } \biggr] \biggl\{ 1 - \frac{m_3^2}{3(m_3-1)^2\ell_i^2} \biggl[1 - \frac{1}{(m_3-1)\ell_i^2}\biggr]^{-2} \biggr\} </math>

The leading-order term is unity on both sides of this expression, so they cancel; let's see what results from keeping terms <math>~\propto \ell_i^{-2}</math>.

Graphical Depiction of Free-Energy Surface

Figure 1: Free-Energy Surface for <math>~(n_c,n_e) = (5,1)</math> and <math>~\frac{\mu_e}{\mu_c} = 1</math>

Left Panel: The free energy (vertical, blue axis) is plotted as a function of the radial interface location, <math>~\xi_i</math> (red axis), and the normalized configuration radius, <math>~\Chi \equiv \chi/\chi_\mathrm{eq}</math> (green axis). Right Panel: Same as the left panel, but animated in order to highlight undulations of the surface. The value of the free energy is indicated by color as well as by the height of the warped surface — red identifies the lowest depicted energies while blue identifies the highest depicted energies; these same colors have been projected down onto the <math>~z = 0</math> plane to present a two-dimensional, color-contour plot. A multi-colored line segment drawn parallel to the <math>~\xi_i</math> axis at the value, <math>~\Chi = 1</math>, identifies the configuration's equilibrium radius for each value of the interface location. Equilibrium configurations marked in white lie at the bottom of the principal free-energy "valley" and are stable, while configurations marked in blue lie at the top of a free-energy "hill," indicating that they are unstable; the red dot identifies the location along this equilibrium sequence where the transition from stable to unstable configurations occurs.

For purposes of reproducibility, it is incumbent upon us to clarify how the values of the free energy were normalized in order to produce the free-energy surface displayed in Figure 1. The normalization steps are explicitly detailed within the fortran program, below, that generated the data for plotting purposes; here we provide a brief summary. We evaluated the normalized free energy, <math>~\mathfrak{G}^*_{51}</math>, across a <math>~200 \times 200</math> zone grid of uniform spacing, covering the following <math>~(x,y) = (\ell_i,\Chi)</math> domain:

<math>~\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}</math>	<math>~\le \ell_i \le</math>	<math>~\frac{3}{\sqrt{3}}</math>
<math>~0.469230769</math>	<math>~\le \Chi\le</math>	<math>~2.0</math>

(With this specific definition of the y-coordinate grid, <math>~\Chi = 1</math> is associated with zone 70.) After this evaluation, a constant, <math>~E_\mathrm{fudge} = -10</math>, was added to <math>~\mathfrak{G}^*</math> in order to ensure that the free energy was negative across the entire domain. Then (inorm = 1), for each specified interface location, <math>~x = \ell_i</math>, employing the equilibrium value of the free energy,

<math>~E_0 = \mathfrak{G}^*_{51}(\ell_i, \Chi = 1) + E_\mathrm{fudge} \, ,</math>

the free energy was normalized across all values of <math>~y = \Chi</math> via the expression,

<math>~\mathrm{fe} = \frac{(\mathfrak{G}^*_{51} + E_\mathrm{fudge}) - (E_0)_i}{|E_0|_i} \, .</math>

Finally, for plotting purposes, at each grid cell vertex ("vertex") — as well as at each grid cell center ("cell") — the value of the free energy, <math>~\mathrm{fe}</math>, was renormalized as follows,

<math>~\mathrm{vertex} = \frac{\mathrm{fe} - \mathrm{min}(\mathrm{fe})}{ \mathrm{max}(\mathrm{fe}) - \mathrm{min}(\mathrm{fe})} \, .</math>

Via this last step, the minimum "vertex" energy across the entire domain was 0.0 while the maximum "vertex" energy was 1.0.

Nonstandard Examination

In our introductory remarks, above, we said the warped free-energy surface drapes across a five-dimensional parameter "plane" such that,

<math>~\mathfrak{G}_{51}</math>

<math>~\mathfrak{G}(R, K_c, M_\mathrm{tot}, q, \nu) \, .</math>

From a more pragmatic point of view, we should have said that the "five-one" free-energy surface drapes across a five-dimensional parameter "plane" such that,

<math>~\mathfrak{G}_{51}</math>

<math>~\mathfrak{G}(R, K_c, M_\mathrm{tot}, \ell_i, \tfrac{\mu_e}{\mu_c}) \, .</math>

In our initial, standard examination of the structure of this warped free-energy surface, we held three parameters fixed — namely, <math>~K_c, M_\mathrm{tot}, \tfrac{\mu_e}{\mu_c}</math> — and plotted <math>~\mathfrak{G}_{51}(\ell_i, \Chi\equiv R/R_\mathrm{eq})</math>. Now, let's fix <math>~\Chi = 1</math> and plot <math>~\mathfrak{G}_{51}(\ell_i, \tfrac{\mu_e}{\mu_c})</math>. The following plot shows how a portion of the <math>~(\ell_i, \mu_e/\mu_c)</math> grid maps onto the traditional <math>~(q, \nu)</math> plane. The numerical labels identify lines of constant <math>~\xi_i = \sqrt{3}\ell_i</math> — 7 (light green), 9 (pink), and 12 (orange) — and lines of constant <math>~\mu_e/\mu_c</math> — 0.330 (purple), 0.315 (dark green), and 0.305 (white/blue).
