Index to Free-Energy Analyses

I have put this index together in an effort to help me, first find, then keep track of all chapters that discuss the use of a free-energy expression and/or virial equilibrium constructs to analyze the structure and stability of spherically symmetric configurations.

Whitworth's (1981) Isothermal Free-Energy Surface
