===The Schönberg-Chandrasekhar Condition=== The <math>2^\mathrm{nd}</math> and <math>3^\mathrm{rd}</math> columns of Table 1 provide the mathematical relations that are needed to implement the interface matching conditions specified by equation (1) of {{ SC42 }} (see the above article excerpt) when the core obeys a polytropic equation of state. For example, in order to ensure that, <div align="center"> <math> P(r_i)|_c = P(r_i)|_e \, , </math> </div> the expression for <math>P</math> given in the <math>2^\mathrm{nd}</math> column and ''evaluated at the interface'' is set equal to the expression for <math>P</math> given in the <math>3^\mathrm{rd}</math> column and ''evaluated at the interface''. This results in the <math>2^\mathrm{nd}</math> relation shown in the left-hand column of Table 2, namely, <div align="center"> <math> K_c \rho_0^{1+1/n_c} \theta^{n_c + 1}_i = K_e \rho_e^{1+1/n_e} \phi^{n_e + 1}_i \, . </math> </div> Likewise, in order to ensure that, <div align="center"> <math> M_r(r_i)|_c = M_r(r_i)|_e \, , </math> </div> the expression for <math>M_r</math> given in the <math>2^\mathrm{nd}</math> column of Table 1 and ''evaluated at the interface'' is set equal to the expression for <math>M_r</math> given in the <math>3^\mathrm{rd}</math> column of Table 1 and ''evaluated at the interface''. This results in the <math>4^\mathrm{th}</math> relation shown in the left-hand column of Table 2. The <math>3^\mathrm{rd}</math> relation shown in the left-hand column of Table 2 ensures that the dimensionless coordinate used to identify the surface of the core, <math>\xi_i</math>, and the dimensionless coordinate used to identify the base of the envelope, <math>\eta_i</math>, refer to exactly the same physical (dimensional) radial location, <math>r_i</math>. It is obtained by setting the expression for <math>r</math> given in the <math>2^\mathrm{nd}</math> column of Table 1 and ''evaluated at the interface'' equal to the expression for <math>r</math> given in the <math>3^\mathrm{rd}</math> column of Table 1 and ''evaluated at the interface''. Finally, drawing on the expressions for <math>\rho</math> that are given in the <math>2^\mathrm{nd}</math> and <math>3^\mathrm{rd}</math> columns of Table 1, we note that the <math>1^\mathrm{st}</math> relation shown in the left-hand column of Table 2 ensures that, <div align="center"> <math> \frac{\rho(r_i)}{\mu}\biggr|_c = \frac{\rho(r_i)}{\mu}\biggr|_e \, . </math> </div> This relation also ensures that, as desired, <div align="center"> <math> T(r_i)|_c = T(r_i)|_e \, , </math> </div> if, as assumed by {{ SC42 }} (again, see the above article excerpt), <math>T</math> is related to <math>P</math> and <math>\rho</math> through the ideal-gas equation of state. More specifically, according to the ideal-gas equation of state, <div align="center"> <math> \frac{1}{T} = \biggl[ \frac{H}{kP} \biggr] \frac{\rho}{\mu} \, . </math> </div> Hence, if <math>P</math> is continuous across the interface, as has already been assured, then the continuity of <math>T</math> across the interface will be ensured by guaranteeing the continuity of <math>\rho/\mu</math> across the interface. <div align="center" id="Table2"> <table border="1" cellpadding="5"> <tr> <td align="center" colspan="2"> <font size="+1"><b>Table 2:</b> Interface Conditions</font> </td> </tr> <tr> <td align="center" colspan="1"> <font size="+1" color="darkblue"> '''Polytropic Core''' </font> </td> <td align="center"> <font size="+1" color="darkblue"> '''Isothermal Core''' </font> </td> </tr> <tr> <td align="center"> <!-- BEGIN LEFT BLOCK details --> <table border="0" cellpadding="3"> <tr> <td align="right"> <math>\biggl( \frac{\rho_0}{\mu_c} \biggr) \theta^{n_c}_i</math> </td> <td align="center"> <math>=</math> </td> <td align="left"> <math>\biggl( \frac{\rho_e}{\mu_e} \biggr) \phi^{n_e}_i</math> </td> </tr> <tr> <td align="right"> <math>K_c \rho_0^{1+1/n_c} \theta^{n_c + 1}_i</math> </td> <td align="center"> <math>=</math> </td> <td align="left"> <math>K_e \rho_e^{1+1/n_e} \phi^{n_e + 1}_i</math> </td> </tr> <tr> <td align="right"> <math>\biggl[ \frac{(n_c + 1)K_c}{4\pi G} \biggr]^{1/2} \rho_0^{(1-n_c)/(2n_c)} \xi_i</math> </td> <td align="center"> <math>=</math> </td> <td align="left"> <math>\biggl[ \frac{(n_e + 1)K_e}{4\pi G} \biggr]^{1/2} \rho_e^{(1-n_e)/(2n_e)} \eta_i</math> </td> </tr> <tr> <td align="right"> <math>[ (n_c + 1)K_c ]^{3/2} \rho_0^{(3-n_c)/(2n_c)} \biggl(\xi^2 \frac{d\theta}{d\xi} \biggr)_i</math> </td> <td align="center"> <math>=</math> </td> <td align="left"> <math>[ (n_e + 1)K_e ]^{3/2} \rho_e^{(3-n_e)/(2n_e)} \biggl(\eta^2 \frac{d\phi}{d\eta} \biggr)_i</math> </td> </tr> </table> <!-- END LEFT BLOCK details --> </td> <td align="center"> <!-- BEGIN RIGHT BLOCK details --> <table border="0" cellpadding="3"> <tr> <td align="right"> <math>\biggl( \frac{\rho_0}{\mu_c} \biggr) e^{-\psi_i}</math> </td> <td align="center"> <math>=</math> </td> <td align="left"> <math>\biggl( \frac{\rho_e}{\mu_e} \biggr) \phi^{n_e}_i</math> </td> </tr> <tr> <td align="right"> <math>c_s^2 \rho_0 e^{-\psi_i}</math> </td> <td align="center"> <math>=</math> </td> <td align="left"> <math>K_e \rho_e^{1+1/n_e} \phi^{n_e + 1}_i</math> </td> </tr> <tr> <td align="right"> <math>\biggl[ \frac{c_s^2}{4\pi G\rho_0} \biggr]^{1/2} \chi_i</math> </td> <td align="center"> <math>=</math> </td> <td align="left"> <math>\biggl[ \frac{(n_e + 1)K_e}{4\pi G} \biggr]^{1/2} \rho_e^{(1-n_e)/(2n_e)} \eta_i</math> </td> </tr> <tr> <td align="right"> <math>\biggl[ \frac{c_s^6}{4\pi G^3\rho_0} \biggr]^{1/2} \biggl( \chi^2 \frac{d\psi}{d\chi} \biggr)_i</math> </td> <td align="center"> <math>=</math> </td> <td align="left"> <math>4\pi \biggl[ \frac{(n_e + 1)K_e}{4\pi G} \biggr]^{3/2} \rho_e^{(3-n_e)/(2n_e)} \biggl(-\eta^2 \frac{d\phi}{d\eta} \biggr)_i</math> </td> </tr> </table> <!-- END RIGHT BLOCK details --> </td> </tr> <tr> <td align="left"> After setting <math>\mu_c=\mu_e=1</math>, these four relations become identical to equations 482-485 (p. 172) of [[Appendix/References#C67|[<b><font color="red">C67</font></b>]]]. </td> <td align="left"> After setting <math>n_e = 1</math>, these four relations are essentially identical to, respectively, equations (13), (10), (12), & (11) of {{ Beech88full }}; adopting <math>n_e=3</math> instead, they serve as the foundation of earlier work by {{ HC41full }}. </td> </tr> </table> </div> <span id="TohlineGeneralization">
