====Summary==== Once the major ( R ) and minor ( d ) radii of the torus have been specified, two key model parameters can be immediately determined, namely, <div align="center"> <math>~a^2 \equiv R^2 - d^2\, ,</math> and, <math>~\cosh\eta_0 \equiv \frac{R}{d} \, ,</math> </div> in which case also, <math>~\sinh\eta_0 = a/d \, .</math> Once the mass-density ( ρ<sub>0</sub> ) of the torus has been specified, the torus mass is given by the expression, <div align="center"> <math>~M = 2\pi^2 \rho_0 d^2 R \, .</math> </div> In addition to the principal pair of meridional-plane coordinates, <math>~(\varpi, z)</math>, it is useful to define the pair of distances, <table border="0" cellpadding="5" align="center"> <tr> <td align="right"> <math>~r_1^2</math> </td> <td align="center"> <math>~\equiv</math> </td> <td align="left"> <math>~(\varpi + a)^2 + (z - Z_0)^2 \, ,</math> </td> </tr> <tr> <td align="right"> <math>~r_2^2</math> </td> <td align="center"> <math>~\equiv</math> </td> <td align="left"> <math>~(\varpi - a)^2 + (z - Z_0)^2 \, ,</math> </td> </tr> </table> where, the equatorial plane of the torus is located at <math>~z = Z_0</math>. As we have shown above, the leading (n = 0) term in Wong's (1973) series-expression for the gravitational potential anywhere outside the torus is, <table border="0" cellpadding="5" align="center"> <tr> <td align="right"> <math>~\biggl( \frac{a}{GM} \biggr) \Phi_\mathrm{W0}(\varpi,z)\biggr|_\mathrm{exterior}</math> </td> <td align="center"> <math>~=</math> </td> <td align="left"> <math>~ - \frac{2^{3} }{3\pi^3} \biggl[ \frac{\sinh\eta_0}{\cosh\eta_0}\biggr] \frac{a}{ r_1 } \cdot \boldsymbol{K}(k) </math> </td> </tr> <tr> <td align="right"> </td> <td align="center"> </td> <td align="left"> <math>~ \times \biggl\{ K(k_0)\cdot K(k_0) [ \cosh\eta_0(1 - \cosh\eta_0) ] + 2K(k_0)\cdot E(k_0) [ \cosh^2\eta_0 + 1 ] - E(k_0)\cdot E(k_0) [ \cosh\eta_0(1 + \cosh\eta_0) ] \biggr\} \, . </math> </td> </tr> </table> where, the two distinctly different arguments — one with, and one without a zero subscript — of the complete elliptic-integral functions are, <table border="0" cellpadding="5" align="center"> <tr> <td align="right"> <math>~k</math> </td> <td align="center"> <math>~\equiv</math> </td> <td align="left"> <math>~ \biggl[ \frac{2}{\coth\eta + 1} \biggr]^{1 / 2} = \biggl[ \frac{4a\varpi}{(\varpi + a)^2 + (z - Z_0)^2} \biggr]^{1 / 2} = \biggl[ \frac{4a\varpi}{r_1^2} \biggr]^{1 / 2} = \biggl[ \frac{r_1^2 - r_2^2}{r_1^2} \biggr]^{1 / 2} \, , </math> </td> </tr> <tr> <td align="right"> <math>~k_0</math> </td> <td align="center"> <math>~\equiv</math> </td> <td align="left"> <math>~ \biggl[ \frac{2}{\cosh\eta_0 + 1} \biggr]^{1 / 2} \, . </math> </td> </tr> </table> As we also have shown above, the second (n = 1) term in Wong's (1973) series-expression for the exterior gravitational potential is, <table border="0" cellpadding="5" align="center"> <tr> <td align="right"> <math>~\biggl( \frac{a}{GM} \biggr) \Phi_\mathrm{W1}(\varpi,z)\biggr|_\mathrm{exterior}</math> </td> <td align="center"> <math>~=</math> </td> <td align="left"> <math>~ - \frac{2^{3} }{3\pi^3} \biggl[ \frac{\sinh\eta_0}{\cosh\eta_0}\biggr] \biggl[\frac{ r_1^2 + r_2^2 - 4a^2}{2r_1 r_2} \biggr] \frac{a}{r_2} \cdot \boldsymbol{E}(k) </math> </td> </tr> <tr> <td align="right"> </td> <td align="center"> </td> <td align="left"> <math>~\times \biggl\{ K(k_0)\cdot K(k_0) [\cosh\eta_0(1 - \cosh\eta_0)] +~2K(k_0)\cdot E(k_0) [(3\cosh^2\eta_0 - 1)] -~5 E(k_0)\cdot E(k_0) [\cosh\eta_0(1+\cosh\eta_0)] \biggr\} \, . </math> </td> </tr> </table> Note that a transformation from the <math>~(r_1, r_2)</math> coordinate pair to the toroidal-coordinate pair <math>~(\eta, \theta)</math> includes the expression, <table border="0" cellpadding="5" align="center"> <tr> <td align="right"> <math>~\cos\theta</math> </td> <td align="center"> <math>~=</math> </td> <td align="left"> <math>~ \frac{r_1^2 + r_2^2 - 4a^2}{2r_1 r_2} \, . </math> </td> </tr> </table> So this (n = 1) term's explicit dependence on "cos(nθ)" is clear. Finally, the third (n = 2) term in Wong's (1973) series-expression for the exterior gravitational potential is, <table border="0" cellpadding="5" align="center"> <tr> <td align="right"> <math>~\biggl( \frac{a}{GM} \biggr) \Phi_\mathrm{W2}(\eta,\theta)</math> </td> <td align="center"> <math>~=</math> </td> <td align="left"> <math>~ -\frac{2^{3} }{3\pi^3} \biggl[ \frac{\sinh\eta_0}{\cosh\eta_0}\biggr] \times \cos(2\theta) \biggl\{ \biggl[ \frac{r_1^2 + r_2^2}{2r_1 r_2} \biggr] \frac{a}{r_2} \cdot \boldsymbol{E}(k) - \frac{a}{r_1} \cdot \boldsymbol{K}(k) \biggr\} </math> </td> </tr> <tr> <td align="right"> </td> <td align="center"> </td> <td align="left"> <math>~ \times \frac{2^{3 / 2}}{3^2}\biggl\{ K ( k_0 ) \cdot K(k_0) \cdot \cosh\eta_0(1 - \cosh\eta_0) [ 16\cosh^2\eta_0 - 13] + 2 K ( k_0 ) \cdot E(k_0) [ 16\cosh^4\eta_0 -13\cosh^2\eta_0 + 3 ] </math> </td> </tr> <tr> <td align="right"> </td> <td align="center"> </td> <td align="left"> <math>~ -~E(k_0) \cdot E(k_0) \cdot \cosh\eta_0 (1 + \cosh\eta_0) [ 3 +16\cosh^2\eta_0 ] \biggr\} \, . </math> </td> </tr> </table>
