===Bannikova et al. (2011) === In §2 of their paper, [http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2011MNRAS.411..557B Bannikova et al. (2011)] develop an integral expression — ultimately, their equation (8) — for the gravitational potential both inside and outside of a uniform-density, axisymmetric, thick torus that has a circular cross-section. They accomplish this by imagining that the (axisymmetric) torus is composed of a set of infinitely thin, axisymmetric rings with their planes being parallel to the torus symmetry plane. [Note that, 28 years earlier, [http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/1983ApJ...268..155S Stahler (1983)] adopted precisely this same strategy to evaluate the gravitational potential of axisymmetric, inhomogeneous configurations; see our [[Apps/ReviewStahler83#Stahler.27s_.281983.29_Rotationally_Flattened_Isothermal_Configurations|separate discussion of Stahler's work in the context of rotationally flattened, isothermal structures]].] In recording, here, the expression derived by Bannikova et al. (2011), we will substitute parameter names as detailed in the following "mapping" table. <table border="1" align="center" cellpadding="8"> <tr> <th align="center" colspan="2">Parameter Mapping</th> </tr> <tr> <td align="center">[http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2011MNRAS.411..557B Bannikova et al.
