===Comparison=== The solution derived by PP84 (presented above) is normalized such that the pressure maximum is always in the equatorial plane at radial coordinate <math>~\chi = 1</math>, and tori of different thicknesses are constructed by specifying different values of the dimensionless Bernoulli constant, <math>~C_\mathrm{B}^'</math>. Using the HSCF approach, the position of the outer edge of the torus is fixed and tori of different thicknesses are selected by moving the inner edge, <math>~x_{in}</math>, around. In order to examine whether or not the two solutions are, in fact, the same, we will re-write the expression given above for <math>~\chi_{-}/\chi_{+}</math> in terms of <math>~x_{in}</math>. In order to do this, we need to convert <math>~C_\mathrm{HSCF}</math> to <math>~C_\mathrm{B}^'</math>. Based on their definitions, the ratio <div align="center"> <math> \frac{C_\mathrm{B}^'}{C_\mathrm{HSCF} } = \frac{\varpi_0}{\varpi_{+}} = x_0 . </math> </div> Hence, <div align="center"> <math> C_\mathrm{B}^' = x_0~C_\mathrm{HSCF} = \biggl( \frac{2x_{in}}{1+x_{in}} \biggr) \biggl( \frac{1}{1+x_{in}} \biggr) = \frac{2x_{in}}{(1+x_{in})^2}. </math> </div> Therefore, <div align="center"> <math> 1 - 2C_\mathrm{B}^' = 1 - \frac{4x_{in}}{(1+x_{in})^2} = \frac{ (1+x_{in})^2 - 4x_{in} }{(1+x_{in})^2} = \frac{ (1-x_{in})^2 }{(1+x_{in})^2} \, , </math> </div> and, <div align="center"> <math> \frac{\chi_{-}}{\chi_{+}} = \frac{ 1 - \sqrt{1-2C_\mathrm{B}^'} }{1 + \sqrt{1-2C_\mathrm{B}^'} } = \frac{ 1 - \frac{1-x_{in}}{1+x_{in}} }{1 + \frac{1-x_{in}}{1+x_{in}}} = \frac{ (1+x_{in}) - (1-x_{in}) }{ (1+x_{in}) + (1-x_{in}) } = x_{in}. </math> </div> Hence, both the PP84 derivation and the HSCF derivation produce the same result.
