For Richard H. Durisen

Highlights Mentioned on 1 March 2020

Tiled Menu: Most tiles presented on this menu page contain a short title that is linked to a hypertext-enhanced chapter in which a technical discussion of the identified topic is discussed.
Ramblings: This appendix contains a long list of additional (mostly technical) topics that have been explored, to date — topics that are related to, but usually are not highlighted as a tile, on the primary menu page.
Equilibrium Sequence Turning Points: As the abstract of this hypertext-enhanced chapter highlights, we have proven analytically that a turning point along the equilibrium sequence of pressure-truncated (spherical) polytropes is precisely associated with the onset of a dynamical instability. This has generally been expected/assumed, but as far as we have been able to determine, it has not previously been proven analytically.
