Stellar Oscillations: Polytropes
Scientific paper
The stability analysis for spherically symmetric stellar equilibrium models with respect to "small" adiabatic Lagrangian perturbations leads to the consideration of a class of densely defined, linear symmetric operators in Hilbert space, which are induced by certain singular vector-integro-partial differential operator. The extension properties of these operators as well as the spectral properties of the linear self-adjoint extensions which are chosen by physical boundary conditions are investigated. For this, the equilibrium models are assumed to be polytropic, with a constant adiabatic index only near the center and near the boundary of the star. Among others it is shown that the operators of the class having a polytropic index near the boundary which is ≥1 are in particular essentially self-adjoint and have a closure with a pure point spectrum.
