The Lin-Shu dispersion relation, with corrections to match experimental conditions and in combination with a quantization rule, permits growth rates to be calculated for axisymmetric disturbances in an axisymmetric disk of stars. Growth rates calculated this way are in reasonable quantitative agreement with recently published results from a series of numerical experiments. The agreement confirms the physical basis of the theory and demonstrates that the theory remains valid even when strained somewhat in the application to galactic models.
