A Hierarchy of Dynamic States of Relaxation

General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

We define a hierarchy of dynamic relaxed gas spheres as solutions of the Poisson equation coupled to a hierarchy of approximations of the Liouville equation leading, when this equation is satisfied, to the well-known isothermal gas spheres in the static case, but also to a new form of dynamic maximum relaxation. The two previous steps of the hierarchy correspond to an increasing degree of local relaxation at the center of the configuration.
