摘要

We construct phase-space distribution functions for the oblate, cuspy mass models of Sridhar & Touma, which may contain a central point mass (black hole) and have potentials of St\"ackel form in parabolic coordinates. The density in the ST models is proportional to a power rγr^{-\gamma} of the radius, with 0<γ<10<\gamma<1. We derive distribution functions f(E,Lz)f(E, L_z) for the scale-free ST models (no black hole) using a power series of the energy EE and the component LzL_z of the angular momentum parallel to the symmetry axis. We use the contour integral method of Hunter & Qian to construct f(E,Lz)f(E, L_z) for ST models with central black holes, and employ the scheme introduced by Dejonghe & de Zeeuw to derive more general distribution functions which depend on EE, LzL_z and the exact third integral I3I_3. We find that self-consistent two- and three-integral distribution functions exist for all values 0<γ<10 < \gamma < 1.
