==Riemann S-Type Ellipsoids== In this case, we assume that <math>~\vec{\Omega}</math> and <math>~\vec\zeta</math> are aligned with each other and, as well, are aligned with the <math>~z</math>-axis; that is to say, in addition to setting <math>~(\Omega_1, \zeta_1) = (0, 0)</math> we also set <math>~(\Omega_2, \zeta_2) = (0, 0)</math>. So, there are only three unknowns — <math>~\Pi, (\Omega_3, \zeta_3)</math> — and they can be determined by ignoring off-axis expressions and simultaneously solving the ''diagonal element'' expressions displayed in our above [[#SummaryTable|''Summary Table'']]. Furthermore, two of the three diagonal-element expressions can be simplified because we are setting <math>~(\Omega_2, \zeta_2) = (0, 0)</math>. The three relevant equilibrium constraints are: <table border="1" align="center" cellpadding="5"> <tr> <td align="center" colspan="2">Indices</td> <td align="center" rowspan="2">2<sup>nd</sup>-Order TVE Expressions that are Relevant to Riemann S-Type Ellipsoids</td> </tr> <tr> <td align="center" width="5%"><math>~i</math></td> <td align="center" width="5%"><math>~j</math></td> </tr> <tr> <td align="center"><math>~1</math></td> <td align="center"><math>~1</math></td> <td align="left"> <table align="left" border=0 cellpadding="3"> <tr> <td align="right"> <math>~0</math> </td> <td align="center"> <math>~=</math> </td> <td align="left"> <math>~ \biggl[ \frac{3\cdot 5}{2^2\pi a b c\rho} \biggr] \Pi +\biggl\{ \Omega_3^2 + 2 \biggl[ \frac{b^2}{b^2+a^2}\biggr] \Omega_3 \zeta_3 ~-~(2\pi G\rho) A_1 \biggr\} a^2 + \biggl[ \frac{a^2}{a^2 + b^2}\biggr]^2 \zeta_3^2 b^2 </math> </td> </tr> </table> </td> </tr> <tr> <td align="center"><math>~2</math></td> <td align="center"><math>~2</math></td> <td align="left"> <table align="left" border=0 cellpadding="3"> <tr> <td align="right"> <math>~0</math> </td> <td align="center"> <math>~=</math> </td> <td align="left"> <math>~ \biggl[ \frac{3\cdot 5}{2^2\pi a b c \rho} \biggr]\Pi + \biggl[ \frac{b^2}{b^2+a^2}\biggr]^2 \zeta_3^2 a^2 + \biggl\{ \Omega_3^2 + 2 \biggl[ \frac{a^2}{a^2 + b^2}\biggr] \Omega_3 \zeta_3 ~-~( 2\pi G \rho) A_2 \biggr\}b^2 </math> </td> </tr> </table> </td> </tr> <tr> <td align="center"><math>~3</math></td> <td align="center"><math>~3</math></td> <td align="left"> <table align="left" border=0 cellpadding="3"> <tr> <td align="right"> <math>~0</math> </td> <td align="center"> <math>~=</math> </td> <td align="left"> <math>~ \biggl[ \frac{3\cdot 5}{2^2\pi abc\rho} \biggr]\Pi - (2\pi G \rho)A_3 c^2 </math> </td> </tr> </table> </td> </tr> </table> The <math>~(i, j) = (3, 3)</math> component expression immediately identifies the value of one of the unknowns, namely, <table border="0" cellpadding="5" align="center"> <tr> <td align="right"> <math>~\Pi</math> </td> <td align="center"> <math>~=</math> </td> <td align="left"> <math>~ \biggl( \frac{2^3\pi^2}{3\cdot 5} \biggr) G \rho^2A_3 a b c^3 \, . </math> </td> </tr> </table> From the remaining pair of diagonal-element expressions, we therefore have, <table align="center" border=0 cellpadding="3"> <tr> <td align="right"> <math>~ 0 </math> </td> <td align="center"> <math>~=</math> </td> <td align="left"> <math>~ a^2 \Omega_3^2 + 2 \biggl[ \frac{b^2a^2}{b^2+a^2}\biggr] \Omega_3 \zeta_3 + \biggl[ \frac{a^2}{a^2 + b^2}\biggr]^2 \zeta_3^2 b^2 ~+~(2\pi G\rho)(A_3 c^2 - A_1 a^2 ) \, , </math> </td> </tr> </table> and, <table align="center" border=0 cellpadding="3"> <tr> <td align="right"> <math>~ 0 </math> </td> <td align="center"> <math>~=</math> </td> <td align="left"> <math>~ \biggl[ \frac{b^2}{b^2+a^2}\biggr]^2 \zeta_3^2 a^2 + b^2 \Omega_3^2 + 2 \biggl[ \frac{a^2b^2}{a^2 + b^2}\biggr] \Omega_3 \zeta_3 ~+~( 2\pi G \rho)(A_3 c^2 - A_2 b^2) \, . </math> </td> </tr> </table> Multiplying the first of these two expressions through by <math>~b^2</math> and the second through by <math>~a^2</math>, then subtracting the second from the first gives, <table align="center" border=0 cellpadding="3"> <tr> <td align="right"> <math>~0</math> </td> <td align="center"> <math>~=</math> </td> <td align="left"> <math>~ b^2\biggl\{ 2 \biggl[ \frac{b^2a^2}{b^2+a^2}\biggr] \Omega_3 \zeta_3 + \biggl[ \frac{a^2}{a^2 + b^2}\biggr]^2 \zeta_3^2 b^2 ~+~(2\pi G\rho)(A_3 c^2 - A_1 a^2 ) \biggr\} </math> </td> </tr> <tr> <td align="right"> </td> <td align="center"> </td> <td align="left"> <math>~ -~ a^2\biggl\{ \biggl[ \frac{b^2}{b^2+a^2}\biggr]^2 \zeta_3^2 a^2 + 2 \biggl[ \frac{a^2b^2}{a^2 + b^2}\biggr] \Omega_3 \zeta_3 ~+~( 2\pi G \rho)(A_3 c^2 - A_2 b^2) \biggr\} </math> </td> </tr> <tr> <td align="right"> </td> <td align="center"> <math>~=</math> </td> <td align="left"> <math>~ \biggl\{ 2 \biggl[ \frac{b^4 a^2}{b^2+a^2}\biggr] \Omega_3 \zeta_3 ~+~(2\pi G\rho)(A_3 c^2 - A_1 a^2 )b^2 \biggr\} ~-~ \biggl\{ 2 \biggl[ \frac{a^4 b^2}{a^2 + b^2}\biggr] \Omega_3 \zeta_3 ~+~( 2\pi G \rho)(A_3 c^2 - A_2 b^2) a^2 \biggr\} </math> </td> </tr> <tr> <td align="right"> <math>~\Rightarrow ~~~ \biggl[ \frac{b^2 a^2}{b^2+a^2}\biggr] \Omega_3 \zeta_3 </math> </td> <td align="center"> <math>~=</math> </td> <td align="left"> <math>~ \pi G\rho \biggl[ \frac{(A_3 c^2 - A_2 b^2) a^2 ~-~(A_3 c^2 - A_1 a^2 )b^2}{ b^2 - a^2} \biggr] </math> </td> </tr> <tr> <td align="right"> </td> <td align="center"> <math>~=</math> </td> <td align="left"> <math>~ \pi G\rho \biggl[ \frac{(A_1 - A_2)a^2b^2}{ b^2 - a^2} - A_3 c^2\biggr] \, . </math> </td> </tr> <tr><td align="center" colspan="3">[ [[User:Tohline/Appendix/References#EFE|EFE]], <font color="#00CC00">Chapter 7, §48, Eq.

Then, once the value of <math>~f</math> has been determined, either expression can be used to determine the corresponding equilibrium value for <math>~\Omega_3</math> in the unit of <math>~(\pi G \rho)^{1 / 2}</math>. The fact that the value of <math>~f</math> is determined from the solution of a quadratic equation underscores the realization that, for a given specification of the ellipsoidal geometry <math>~(a, b, c)</math>, if an equilibrium exists — ''i.e.,'' if the solution for <math>~f</math> is real rather than imaginary — then two equally valid, and usually different (''i.e.,'' non-degenerate), values of <math>~f</math> will be realized. This means that two different underlying flows — one ''direct'' and the other ''adjoint'' — will sustain the shape of the ellipsoidal configuration, as viewed from a frame that is rotating about the <math>~z</math>-axis with frequency, <math>~\Omega_3</math>.
