In an accompanying discussion, we derived the so-called,

Adiabatic Wave (or Radial Pulsation) Equation

d2xdr02+[4r0(g0ρ0P0)]dxdr0+(ρ0γgP0)[ω2+(43γg)g0r0]x=0

whose solution gives eigenfunctions that describe various radial modes of oscillation in spherically symmetric, self-gravitating fluid configurations. Assuming that the underlying equilibrium structure is that of a bipolytrope having (nc,ne)=(5,1), it makes sense to adopt the normalizations used when defining the equilibrium structure, namely,

ρ*

ρ0ρc

;    

r*

r0[Kc1/2/(G1/2ρc2/5)]

P*

P0Kcρc6/5

;    

Mr*

Mr[Kc3/2/(G3/2ρc1/5)]

We note as well that,

g0

=

GM(r0)r02

 

=

G[Mr*ρc1/5(KcG)3/2][r*ρc2/5(KcG)1/2]2

 

=

GMr*(r*)2[ρc3/5(KcG)1/2].

Hence, multiplying the LAWE through by (Kc/G)ρc4/5 gives,

0

=

d2xdr02+[4r0(g0ρ0P0)]dxdr0+(ρ0γgP0)[ω2+(43γg)g0r0]x


0

=

d2xdr*2+[4r*ρc2/5(KcG)1/2(g0ρ0P0)]dxdr*+ρc4/5(KcG)(ρ0γgP0)[ω2+(43γg)g0r0]x

 

=

d2xdr*2+{4r*ρc2/5(KcG)1/2GMr*(r*)2[ρc3/5(KcG)1/2][ρcρ*P*Kcρc6/5]}dxdr*+ρc4/5(KcG)[ρcρ*γgP*Kcρc6/5]{ω2+(43γg)GMr*(r*)2[ρc3/5(KcG)1/2]ρc2/5r*(GKc)1/2}x

 

=

d2xdr*2+{4r*Mr*(r*)2[ρ*P*]}dxdr*+(1Gρc)[ρ*γgP*]{ω2+(43γg)GρcMr*(r*)3}x

 

=

d2xdr*2+{4r*(ρ*P*)Mr*(r*)2}dxdr*+(ρ*P*){ω2γgGρc+(4γg3)Mr*(r*)3}x

 

=

d2xdr*2+{4(ρ*P*)Mr*(r*)}1r*dxdr*+(ρ*P*){2πσc23γgαgMr*(r*)3}x.
