Gravitation - Medium - Gyroscopic Stabilization

Scientific paper

Resistance to shearing stress is introduced into a model of a homogeneous, rotating, gravitating medium. It is shown that this eliminates gyroscopic stabilization, both in the presence and in the absence of viscosity. A model of gaseous and rigid media in contact is also considered. Contact with a rigid support also partially eliminates gyroscopic stabilization. This fact may result in some compromise between the theories of density waves and of a self-propagating excitation for explaining the spiral structure of galaxies.
