===Central Boundary Condition=== The central boundary condition is, <table border="0" cellpadding="5" align="center"> <tr> <td align="right"> <math>\frac{dx_\mathrm{core}}{dr^*}</math> </td> <td align="center"> <math>=</math> </td> <td align="left"> <math>0 \, .</math> </td> </tr> </table> In order to kick-start the integration outward from the center of the configuration, we will following the procedure that has been detailed in an [[SSC/Stability/Polytropes#Numerical_Integration_from_the_Center.2C_Outward|accompanying discussion]]. At the center of the configuration <math>(\xi_1 = 0)</math>, we label the fractional displacement function as <math>x_1</math> — value to be set later, perhaps in an effort to help secure the proper matching conditions at the interface — then we will draw on the [[Appendix/Ramblings/PowerSeriesExpressions#PolytropicDisplacement|derived power-series expression]] to determine the value of the displacement function at the first radial grid line, <math>~\xi_2 = \Delta_\xi</math>, away from the center. Specifically, given that <math>n = 5, \gamma_g = 6/5</math>, and <math>\alpha_g = -1/3</math> in the core, we will set, <table border="0" cellpadding="5" align="center"> <tr> <td align="right"> <math> x_2 </math> </td> <td align="center"> <math>=</math> </td> <td align="left"> <math> x_1 \biggl[ 1 - \frac{(n+1) \mathfrak{F} \Delta_\xi^2}{60} \biggr] = x_1 \biggl[ 1 - \frac{\mathfrak{F} \Delta_\xi^2}{10} \biggr] \, ,</math> </td> </tr> </table> where, <table border="0" cellpadding="5" align="center"> <tr> <td align="right"> <math> \mathfrak{F} </math> </td> <td align="center"> <math>\equiv</math> </td> <td align="left"> <math> \biggl[ \frac{\sigma_c^2}{\gamma_g} - 2\alpha_g \biggr] = \frac{1}{6}\biggl[ 5 \sigma_c^2 + 4 \biggr] \, .</math> </td> </tr> </table>
