Continuation on hydrostatic equilibrium... this time a general solution (when density is not constant), by means of polytropes, the Lane-Emden equation, and the "standard model" of stars. In this video I cover:
- Hydrostatic equilibrium (general solution)
- Polytropes
- Lane-Emden equation
- Standard model for stars
- Radial profiles for density, pressure, and temperature
