====Uniform-Density Initially (n' = 0)==== Drawing directly from §IIc of {{ Stoeckly65 }}, <font color="orange">… consider a large, gaseous mass, initially a homogeneous sphere of mass <math>M</math> and angular momentum <math>J</math> rotating as a solid body, and suppose it contracts in such a way that cylindrical surfaces remain cylindrical and each such surface retains its angular momentum.
