==Physically Viable Parameter Values== ===Interface Mapping=== As has already been stated in our [[SSC/Structure/BiPolytropes/Analytic15#Steps_2_.26_3|above description of the <math>~n_c = 1</math> core]] of these bipolytropic configurations, the structure of the core will be physically viable as long as the radial location of the interface, <math>~\xi_i</math>, between the core and the envelope is positioned somewhere within the range, <div align="center"> <math>~0 \le \xi_i \le \pi \, .</math> </div> Similarly, our [[SSC/Structure/Polytropes#Srivastava.27s_F-Type_Solution|discussion of Srivastava's Lane-Emden function]], which is being used to define the envelope of these bipolytropic configurations, makes it clear that the envelope will have a physically viable structure as long as the parameter, <math>~\Delta_i</math>, associated with the radial location of the interface is positioned somewhere within the range, <div align="center"> <math>~\eta_\mathrm{crit} < e^{2\Delta_i} < e^{2\pi} \, ,</math> </div> where, <div align="center"> <math>\eta_\mathrm{crit} \equiv e^{2\tan^{-1}(1+2^{1/3})} = 10.05836783\, ,</math> </div> and, in keeping with the definition provided above, <div align="center"> <math>\Delta_i = \tan^{-1}(y_\mathrm{root}) + m\pi \, .</math> </div> This coordinate range for the physically viable envelope can be rewritten as, <div align="center"> <math>~\tan^{-1}(1+2^{1/3}) \le \Delta_i \le \pi \, .</math> </div> As is illustrated in the following figure, titled "Interface Mapping," our analytic solution defines a smooth, one-to-one mapping of the radial coordinate that defines the outer edge of the <math>~n_c=1</math> core, <math>~\xi_i</math>, to the parameter, <math>~\Delta_i</math>, that defines the inner edge of the <math>~n_e = 5</math> envelope. <div align="center"> <table border="1" cellpadding="0" align="center"> <tr> <td align="center"> [[File:InterfaceMap02.png|center|500px|Illustration of Interface Mapping]] </td> <td align="center"> <table border="0" cellpadding="5" align="center"> <tr> <td align="center"><math>~\mathrm{Model}</math></td> <td align="center"><math>~\xi_i</math></td> <td align="center"><math>~m</math></td> <td align="center"><math>~\Delta_i</math></td> </tr> <tr> <td align="center"> ----</td> <td align="center"> ----</td> <td align="center"> ----</td> <td align="center"> ----</td> </tr> <tr> <td align="center">…</td> <td align="center"><math>~0</math></td> <td align="center"><math>~0</math></td> <td align="center"><math>~\tan^{-1}(1+2^{1/3})</math></td> </tr> <tr> <td align="center"><math>~(2)</math></td> <td align="center"><math>~0.8154</math></td> <td align="center"><math>~0</math></td> <td align="center"><math>~1.24287</math></td> </tr> <tr> <td align="center"><math>~(3)</math></td> <td align="center"><math>~1.6598</math></td> <td align="center"><math>~0</math></td> <td align="center"><math>~1.49179</math></td> </tr> <tr> <td align="center"><math>~(4)</math></td> <td align="center"><math>~2.0914</math></td> <td align="center"><math>~1</math></td> <td align="center"><math>~1.73281</math></td> </tr> <tr> <td align="center"><math>~(5)</math></td> <td align="center"><math>~2.7302</math></td> <td align="center"><math>~1</math></td> <td align="center"><math>~2.87493</math></td> </tr> <tr> <td align="center">…</td> <td align="center"><math>~\pi</math></td> <td align="center"><math>~1</math></td> <td align="center"><math>~\pi</math></td> </tr> </table> </td> </tr> </table> </div> In the figure, the green curve traces the segment of the E-Type Lane-Emden function for the <math>~n_c = 1</math> polytropic core, <math>~\theta_{1E}</math> — that is, the segment of the "sinc" function — that covers the range <math>~[0,\pi]</math> for the interface parameter, <math>~\xi_i</math>; the blue curve traces the segment of the F-Type Lane-Emden function for the <math>~n_e = 5</math> polytropic envelope, <math>~\phi_{5F}</math>, that covers this same range <math>~[0,\pi]</math>, but for the interface parameter, <math>~\Delta_i</math>. (This blue curve is also displayed, and its properties described in more depth, in a [[SSC/Structure/Polytropes#Example_Interval|separate discussion devoted to Srivastava's Lane-Emden function]] for <math>~n=5</math> polytropes.) This entire displayed parameter range, <math>~[0,\pi]</math>, is associated with physically viable interface values for the core (green curve), but for the envelope (blue curve), only a subset of this range can be associated with physically viable interface values — namely, the range <math>~[\tan^{-1}(1+2^{1/3}),\pi]</math> over which <math>~\phi_{5F}</math> is positive but its slope is either negative or zero. The purple dashed line segment labeled "(2)" in the above "Interface Mapping" figure intersects the green curve at the value, <math>~\xi_i = 0.8154</math>, and it intersects the blue curve at the interface value, <math>~\Delta_i = 1.24287</math>. [These two numerical values are listed in the row labeled "Model (2)" of the table that has been placed immediately to the right of the figure.] This is intended to illustrate that an equilibrium bipolytropic configuration with <math>~(n_c, n_e) = (1, 5)</math> can be constructed by truncating the <math>~n_c = 1</math> core at a radius, <math>~\xi_i = 0.8154</math>, and matching it to an <math>~n_e = 5</math> envelope whose innermost radius is associated with the parameter, <math>~\Delta_i = 1.24287</math>. (The corresponding, analytically determined values of the coefficients <math>~A_0</math> and <math>~B_0</math> dictate the manner in which the blue curve should be stretched both horizontally and vertically to complete a smooth attachment of the envelope to the core.) In an analogous fashion, the dashed line segments labeled "(3)", "(4)", and "(5)" — and their corresponding coordinate values as listed in the accompanying table — illustrate how three additional equilibrium bipolytropic configurations with progressively larger cores can be constructed with the proper interface mapping. We have specifically chosen to illustrate the interface-mapping of these four bipolytropic models because their cores are truncated at the same values of <math>~\xi_i</math> that [http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/1983PASAu...5..175M Murphy (1983)] used for the models numbered "(2)", "(3)", "(4)", and "(5)" in his Table 3. (See the [[SSC/Structure/BiPolytropes/Analytic15#Murphy.27s_Example_Model_Characteristics|much more in-depth discussion, below]]; and note that the edge of the core is labeled by the parameter, <math>~\zeta_J</math>, rather than by <math>~\xi_i</math>, in Murphy's Table 3.) For clarity we note that, the analytically determined values of <math>~\Delta_i</math> that are listed in the table that sits to the right of the above "Interface Mapping" figure have been shifted in phase by <math>~m\pi</math>, where the relevant value of the integer, <math>~m</math>, is also listed in the table. In the figure, the two ''purple'' dashed-line segments are associated with models for which <math>~m=0</math>, while the two ''orange'' dashed-line segments are associated with models for which <math>~m=1</math>. In his Table 3, [http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/1983PASAu...5..175M Murphy (1983)] also tabulates the characteristics of two additional models: The core of his "model 1" is truncated at a radius much less than <math>~\pi</math>, namely, <math>~\xi_i = 0.032678</math>; as a result, the bipolytropic configuration has a very small core and its structure is almost entirely that of an <math>~n = 5</math> polytrope. At the other extreme, the core of his "model 6" is truncated at a radius that is almost, but not quite, equal to <math>~\pi</math>, namely, <math>~\xi_i = 3.1415</math>; the resulting bipolytropic configuration has a very tiny envelope and its structure is almost entirely an <math>~n = 1</math> polytrope. Our analytic solution permits us to set <math>~\xi_i</math> to either of the two limiting values, <math>~0</math> or <math>~\pi</math>, and to show that, in these limits, <math>~\Delta_i</math> exactly equals, respectively, <math>~\tan^{-1}(1 + 2^{1/3})</math> and <math>~\pi</math>. The mapping of the first of these two limits is illustrated by the red dashed line segment in the above figure; the second limit is illustrated simply by the intersection of the two curves at the coordinate location, <math>~\pi</math>. It appears, therefore, that in these two limits Murphy's bipolytrope can be used, respectively, to define the structure of an isolated <math>~n=5</math> polytrope or an isolated <math>~n=1</math> polytrope. '''<font color="red">ASIDE:</font>''' It has previously been thought that Srivastava's Lane-Emden function, <math>~\phi_{5F}</math>, cannot be used on its own to define the structure of an ''isolated'' <math>~n=5</math> polytrope because the function's amplitude grows without bound and oscillates more and more rapidly between positive and negative values as the governing radial coordinate gets smaller and smaller. From the results presented here, it now appears as though an isolated <math>~n=5</math> polytrope of this type ''can'' be constructed by letting the interface parameter <math>~\xi_i \rightarrow 0</math> — and, hence the alternative parameter <math>~\Delta_i \rightarrow \tan^{-1}(1+2^{1/3})</math> — in Murphy's bipolytrope. It should be interesting to determine the values of the coefficients, <math>~A_0</math> and <math>~B_0</math>, that arise in this limit, and to examine in detail the structure of the complete <math>~n=5</math> model that results. Does its radial density profile resemble — or, perhaps, exactly match — the radial density profile of the well-known ''isolated'' <math>~n=5</math> ploytrope? Does the new structure have a finite radius as well as a finite central density? In this context it is worth noting that, in two separate papers — [http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/1980PASAu...4...37M Murphy (1980a)] and [http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/1981PASAu...4..205M Murphy (1981)] — Murphy has constructed and discussed the physical characteristics of equilibrium models that obey the <math>~n=5</math> polytropic equation of state all the way from the center to a surface which is of finite radius. He accomplishes this by piecing together a core that is defined by the familiar, analytically specified, <math>~\phi_{5E}</math> Lane-Emden function and an envelope that is defined by Srivastava's <math>~\phi_{5F}</math> Lane-Emden function. ===Murphy's Example Model Characteristics=== As in an [[SSC/Structure/BiPolytropes/Analytic15#MurphyF2Function|earlier figure]], the following log-log plot shows what value(s) of <math>~(A_0\eta)_\mathrm{root} </math> (vertical axis) result from a wide range of interface coordinate specifications, <math>~\xi_i</math> (horizontal axis), under the simplifying assumption that <math>~(\mu_e/\mu_c) = 1</math>. The solid blue diamonds present exactly the same information as in the previous figure, that is, they identify roots resulting from setting <math>~m=0</math> in the phase-shift specification. But here, focusing on a regime that highlights larger roots of the first constraint equation, solid black squares identify roots for which <math>~m=+1</math>, and solid maroon triangles identify roots for which <math>~m=+2</math>. <span id="SecondMurphyF2Function">In this version of the figure</span>, colored dashed-line segments have been drawn to enclose two regions of parameter space in which solutions of the [[SSC/Structure/BiPolytropes/Analytic15#KeyInterfaceRelation|key nonlinear interface relation]] produce a [[SSC/Structure/BiPolytropes/Analytic15#Physically_Viable_Parameter_Values|physically viable model]] — that is, <math>~0 \le \xi_i \le \pi</math> and <math>~\tan^{-1}(1+2^{1/3}) \le \Delta_i \le \pi</math>. The portion of the red-outlined rectangular region that lies to the left of the vertical, <math>~\xi_i = \xi_\mathrm{trans}</math> line accommodates some models that arise from specifying an <math>~m=0</math> phase shift and the portion that lies to the right of this demarcation line accommodates some models that arise from specifying an <math>~m=+1</math> phase shift. Similarly, the portion of the green-outlined rectangular region that lies to the left of the vertical, <math>~\xi_i = \xi_\mathrm{trans}</math> line accommodates additional models that arise from specifying an <math>~m=+1</math> phase shift and the portion that lies to the right of this demarcation line accommodates models that arise from specifying an <math>~m=+2</math> phase shift. Given the inherent periodicity of Srivastava's <math>~\phi_{5F}</math> function, it should be clear that we could equally well have identified other rectangular regions at both higher <math>~(m \ge 2)</math> and lower <math>~(m \le 0)</math> values of <math>~(A_0 \eta)_\mathrm{root}</math> in which additional physically viable models exist. It should also be clear that, because the figure presents a log-log plot and the lower limit of viable parameter values for the horizontal axis parameter, <math>~\xi_i</math>, is zero, the identified rectangular regions should be viewed as extending to the left, all the way to minus infinity. <div align="center"> <table border="1" cellpadding="5"> <tr> <td align="center" colspan="2"> Examination of Table 3 Data Presented in [http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/1983PASAu...5..175M J.

The values of all six of these coordinate pairs have been re-listed immediately to the right of the log-log plot, in a separate panel of the above figure. After mapping Murphy's coordinate notation to ours — specifically invoking the mapping <math>~(\zeta_J, \xi_J) ~\rightarrow~ (\xi_i, A_0\eta_\mathrm{root})</math> — the locations of all six models have been marked by orange circles on the plot. Five of Murphy's models fall directly onto our generated curves and in regions marked as physically viable, giving us confidence that our analysis matches his in considerable detail. As is explained more fully, below, we strongly suspect that the single Murphy model that does not lie on one of our generated curves — "Model 4" which, as published in Murphy's Table 3, has coordinates <math>~(\zeta_J, \xi_J) = (2.6914, 33.0249)</math> — is displaced, perhaps because of transcription errors in the published table. As a supplement to the preceding two figures, we now display a table of our ''analytically determined'' model characteristics that is patterned after and largely matches [http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/1983PASAu...5..175M Murphy's (1983)] Table 3. The tabulated values have been derived assuming <math>~\mu_e/\mu_c = 1</math> throughout, that is, assuming that the mean molecular weights of the core and the envelope are identical. Vertically, the table is divided into three segments: The top portion contains six rows of numbers that result from our derivations; the middle portion displays six columns of numbers that have been extracted directly from Table 3 of Murphy (1983) and displayed here as image segments; and the bottom portion shows additional parameter values that we have generated in an effort to understand why our "Model 4" does not match the fourth model in Murphy's table. <div align="center"> <table border="1" cellpadding="5"> <tr> <td align="center" colspan="9"> Some Model Characteristics<sup>†</sup> (assuming <math>\mu_e/\mu_c</math> = 1) </td> </tr> <tr> <td align="center" rowspan="2"> Model </td> <td align="center" colspan="2"> Specified </td> <td align="center" colspan="6"> Analytically Determined Here </td> </tr> <tr> <td align="center"> <math>~\xi_i</math> </td> <td align="center"> <math>~m</math> </td> <td align="center"> <math>~\Delta_i</math> </td> <td align="center"> <math>~(A_0\eta)_\mathrm{root}</math> </td> <td align="center"> <math>~\frac{A_0}{3^{1/2}} \biggl( \frac{\mu_e}{\mu_c} \biggr) </math> </td> <td align="center"> <math>~B_0</math> </td> <td align="center"> <math>~\frac{B_0}{3^{1/4}} \biggl(\frac{\mu_e}{\mu_c}\biggr)^{1/2} \theta_i^{-1} </math> </td> <td align="center"> <math>~\xi_s</math> </td> </tr> <tr> <td align="center">1</td> <td align="right">3.2678E-02</td> <td align="center">0</td> <td align="right">1.1544</td> <td align="right">10.0614</td> <td align="right">307.894</td> <td align="center">5.77929</td> <td align="center">4.39209</td> <td align="right">1.7392</td> </tr> <tr> <td align="center">2</td> <td align="right">0.8154</td> <td align="center">0</td> <td align="right">1.2429</td> <td align="right">12.0101</td> <td align="right">14.729</td> <td align="center">1.25567</td> <td align="center">1.06865</td> <td align="right">36.356</td> </tr> <tr> <td align="center">3</td> <td align="right">1.6598</td> <td align="center">0</td> <td align="right">1.4918</td> <td align="right">19.7585</td> <td align="right">11.9041</td> <td align="center">1.01206</td> <td align="center">1.28146</td> <td align="right">44.984</td> </tr> <tr> <td align="center">4</td> <td align="right">2.6914</td> <td align="center">1</td> <td align="right">2.8365</td> <td align="right"><font color="red">290.9431</font></td> <td align="right"><font color="red">108.1010</font></td> <td align="center">0.14348</td> <td align="center"><font color="red">0.67430</font></td> <td align="right"><font color="red">4.9536</font></td> </tr> <tr> <td align="center">5</td> <td align="right">2.7302</td> <td align="center">1</td> <td align="right">2.8749</td> <td align="right">100.00<math>\pi</math></td> <td align="right">115.065</td> <td align="center">0.12408</td> <td align="center">0.64370</td> <td align="right">4.6539</td> </tr> <tr> <td align="center">6</td> <td align="right">3.1415</td> <td align="center">2</td> <td align="right">6.283141</td> <td align="right">91268<math>\pi</math></td> <td align="right">170.44223<math>e^{2\pi}</math></td> <td align="center">1.8966E-05</td> <td align="center">0.48862</td> <td align="right">3.141778</td> </tr> <tr> <td align="center" colspan="9">[[File:CommentButton02.png|right|50px|Comment by J.

But such a comparison also highlights the mismatch between Murphy's "Model 4" and ours — to aid in this particular comparison, the relevant numbers have been displayed in a red font in the upper portion of our table. According to our analysis, a model with <math>~\xi_i = 2.6914</math> does not display characteristics that, in any fashion, match Murphy's model with the same core-interface value. We initially suspected that the "Model 4" mismatch resulted from a typographical or transcription error in the value of <math>~\zeta_J</math> — in our terminology, <math>~\xi_i</math> — that appears in Murphy's published Table 3. So we tried a variety of values of <math>~\xi_i</math>, looking for a set of generated characteristics that matched Murphy's published Model 4 characteristics. We were unsuccessful in this effort. The most tantalizing results from this search are displayed as cells with light-green backgrounds in the bottom segment of the above table: (Model 4b) Setting <math>~\xi_i = 0.048681~(m = 0)</math> gives <math>~B=3.5999</math>, which matches Murphy's "Model 4" value of <math>~B</math>; (Model 4c) setting <math>~\xi_i = 1.14988~(m = 0)</math> gives values of <math>~A</math> and <math>~\zeta_J (\mathrm{i.e.,}~\xi_s)</math> that both match Murphy's values; (Model 4d) setting <math>~\xi_i = 1.77027~(m = 0)</math> also gives values of <math>~A</math> and <math>~\zeta_J</math> that both match Murphy's values; and (Model 4e) setting <math>~\xi_i = 2.10961~(m = 1)</math> gives a value of <math>~(A_0\eta)_\mathrm{root}</math> that matches Murphy's value of <math>~\xi_J</math>. As we have been unable to find a value of <math>~\xi_i</math> whose associated parameter values match Murphy's "Model 4" values across the board, we remain at a loss to explain the mismatch between our "Model 4" and Murphy's.
