=Free Energy Surface(s)=

==Scope==

Consider a self-gravitating ellipsoid having the following properties:
<ul>
<li>Semi-axis lengths, <math>~(x,y,z)_\mathrm{surface} = (a,b,c)</math>, and corresponding volume, <math>~4\pi/(3abc)</math> &nbsp;; and consider only the situations <math>0 \le b/a \le 1</math> and <math>0 \le c/a \le 1</math> &nbsp;;</li>
<li>Total mass, <math>~M</math> &nbsp;;</li>
<li>Uniform density, <math>~\rho = (3 M)/(4\pi abc) </math> &nbsp;;</li>
<li>Figure is spinning about its ''c'' axis with angular velocity, <math>~\Omega</math> &nbsp;;</li>
<li>Internal, steady-state flow exhibiting the following characteristics:</li>
<ul>
<li>No vertical (''z'') motion;</li>
<li>Elliptical (''x-y'' plane) streamlines everywhere having an ellipticity that matches that of the overall figure, that is, <math>~e = (1-b^2/a^2)^{1/2}</math> &nbsp;;</li>
<li>The velocity components, <math>~v_x</math> and <math>~v_y</math>, are linear in the  coordinate and, overall, characterized by the magnitude of the vorticity, <math>~\zeta</math> &nbsp;.</li>
</ul>
</ul>

Such a configuration is uniquely specified by the choice of six key parameters: &nbsp; <math>~a</math>, <math>~b</math>, <math>~c</math>, <math>~M</math>, <math>~\Omega</math>, and <math>~\zeta</math> &nbsp;.  

==Free Energy of Incompressible, Constant Mass Systems== 
We are interested, here, in examining how the free energy of such a system will vary as it is allowed to "evolve" as an ''incompressible'' fluid &#8212; ''i.e.,'' holding <math>~\rho</math> fixed &#8212; through different ellipsoidal shapes while conserving its total mass.  Following [http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/1995ApJ...446..472C Paper I], we choose to set <math>~M = 5</math> &#8212; which removes mass from the list of unspecified key parameters &#8212; and we choose to set <math>~\rho = \pi^{-1}</math>, which is then reflected in a specification of the semi-axis, <math>~a</math>, in terms of the pair of dimensionless axis ratios, <math>~b/a</math> and <math>~c/a</math>, namely,
<div align="center">
<table border="0" cellpadding="5" align="center">

  <td align="right">
<math>~a^3</math>
  </td>
  <td align="center">
<math>~=</math>

  <td align="left">
<math>~\frac{3Ma^2}{4\pi(bc)\rho} = \frac{15}{4}\biggl(\frac{b}{a}\biggr)^{-1}  \biggl(\frac{c}{a}\biggr)^{-1}\, .</math>
  </td>
</tr>
</table>
</div>

Moving forward, then, a unique ellipsoidal configuration is identified via the specification of ''four'', rather than six, key parameters &#8212; &nbsp; <math>~b/a</math>, <math>~c/a</math>, <math>~\Omega</math>, and <math>~x</math> &nbsp; &#8212; and the free energy of that configuration is given by the expression,

==Adopted Evolutionary Constraints==

===Conserve Only L===
Let's fix the total angular momentum, <math>~L</math>, of a triaxial configuration and examine how the configuration's free energy varies as we allow it to contort through different triaxial shapes &#8212; that is, as its pair of axis ratios varies, always maintaining <math>~\tfrac{b}{a} < 1</math> &#8212; and as we vary <math>~x</math>, which characterizes the fraction of angular momentum that is stored in internal spin versus overall figure rotation.  The desired free-energy function, <math>~E(\tfrac{b}{a},\tfrac{c}{a}, x)|_L</math>, has [[#E_Lexpression|just been defined]], but visualizing its behavior is difficult because, in this situation, the free energy is a warped, ''three-dimensional'' surface draped across the four-dimensional domain, <math>~(\tfrac{b}{a},\tfrac{c}{a}, x, E_L)</math>.   


Acknowledging that we are primarily interested in identifying extrema of this free-energy function, the discussion presented in &sect;3.2 of [http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/1995ApJ...446..472C Paper I] shows us how to reduce the dimensionality of this problem by one.  There, it is shown that, as long as <math>~\tfrac{b}{a} \ne 1</math>, extrema exist in the <math>~x</math>-coordinate direction &#8212; that is, <math>~\partial E_L/\partial x = 0</math> &#8212; only if <math>~x = 0.</math>  For a given choice of <math>~L</math>, therefore, the relevant ''two-dimensional'' free-energy surface is defined by the expression,

Figure 3 of [http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/1995ApJ...446..472C Paper I] presents a black-and-white contour plot of this <math>~E_L</math> function for the specific case of <math>~L = 4.71488</math>, which, for reference, is the total angular momentum of an equilibrium [[Apps/MaclaurinSpheroids#Maclaurin_Spheroids_.28axisymmetric_structure.29|Maclaurin spheroid]] having an eccentricity, <math>~e = 0.85</math> (see [[#Table1|Table 1, below]]).  We have digitally extracted this black-and-white contour plot from p. 477 of the (PDF-formatted) [http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/1995ApJ...446..472C Paper I] publication and have reprinted it as the left-hand panel of our Figure 1.  Note that we have flipped the plot horizontally and rotated it by 90&deg; so that the orientation of the axis pair, <math>~(\tfrac{b}{a},\tfrac{c}{a})</math>, conforms with the orientation of a related, information-rich diagram presented by [https://ui.adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/1965ApJ...142..890C/abstract Chandrasekhar (1965)] &#8212; see also our [[ThreeDimensionalConfigurations/JacobiEllipsoids#Sequence_Plots|accompanying discussion of equilibrium sequence plots]].

In our Figure 2, this same <math>~E_L</math> function has been displayed as a warped, two-dimensional free-energy surface draped across the three-dimensional <math>~(\tfrac{b}{a},\tfrac{c}{a},E)</math> domain, where depth as well as color has been used to tag energy values.  The two-dimensional, colored contour plot presented in the right-hand panel of our Figure 1 results from the projection of this free-energy surface onto the <math>~(\tfrac{b}{a},\tfrac{c}{a})</math> plane; it reproduces in quantitative detail the black-and-white contour plot that we have extracted from [http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/1995ApJ...446..472C Paper I].  In an effort to (qualitatively) illustrate this agreement, we have digitally "pasted" the black-and-white contour plot from [http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/1995ApJ...446..472C Paper I] onto our colored contour plot and presented the combined image in the middle panel of our Figure 1. 


Our Figure 2 image of the free-energy surface helps illuminate the description of this surface that appears in the caption of Fig. 3 from [http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/1995ApJ...446..472C Paper I].  Quoting from that figure caption:&nbsp; "The [equilibrium] Maclaurin spheroid sits on a saddle point <math>~[(\tfrac{b}{a},\tfrac{c}{a}) = (1.0,0.52678); E_0 = -7.81842]</math>, while a global minimum with  <math>~E_0 = -7.83300</math> exists at <math>~(\tfrac{b}{a},\tfrac{c}{a}) = (0.588,0.428)</math>."

===Animation===

The animation sequence presented, below, as Figure 3 displays the warped free-energy surface (right) in conjunction with its projection onto the <math>~(\tfrac{b}{a},\tfrac{c}{a})</math> plane (left) for configurations having nineteen different total angular momentum values, <math>~L</math>, as detailed in column 5 of Table 1.  The four-digit number that tags each frame of this animation sequence identifies the eccentricity (column 1 of Table 1) of the Maclaurin spheroid that is associated with each selected value of <math>~L</math>.  In each frame of the animation, the equilibrium configuration associated with that Maclaurin spheroid is identified by the extremum of the free energy that appears along the right-hand edge <math>~(\tfrac{b}{a} = 1)</math> of the warped surface.  For values of <math>~e < 0.81267</math> &#8212; corresponding to <math>~L < 4.23296</math> &#8212; the Maclaurin spheroid (marked by a small white circle/sphere) sits at the location of the absolute minimum of the free-energy surface and the configuration is stable.  But for all larger values of the eccentricity/angular momentum, the Maclaurin spheroid (marked by a small dark-blue circle/sphere) is associated with a ''saddle point'' of the free-energy surface &#8212; that is, the configuration is in equilibrium, but it is (secularly) unstable &#8212; and the absolute energy minimum shifts off-axis to the location of a Jacobi ellipsoid (marked by a small white circle/sphere) having the same total angular momentum.  As [http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/1995ApJ...446..472C Paper I] points out, evolution from the unstable axisymmetric equilibrium configuration to the stable triaxial configuration occurs along the narrow valley/canyon connecting the two extrema of the free energy.
