Lane–Emden equation

In astrophysics, the Lane–Emden equation is a dimensionless form of Poisson's equation for the gravitational potential of a Newtonian self-gravitating, spherically symmetric, polytropic fluid. It is named after astrophysicists Jonathan Homer Lane and Robert Emden. The equation reads
: \frac \frac \left(}\right) + \theta^n = 0
where \xi is a dimensionless radius and \theta is related to the density (and thus the pressure) by \rho=\rho_c\theta^n for central density \rho_c. The index n is the polytropic index that appears in the polytropic equation of state,
: P = K \rho^}\,
where P and \rho are the pressure and density, respectively, and K is a constant of proportionality. The standard boundary conditions are \theta(0)=1 and \theta'(0)=0. Solutions thus describe the run of pressure and density with radius and are known as polytropes of index n.
== Applications ==

Physically, hydrostatic equilibrium connects the gradient of the potential, the density, and the gradient of the pressure, whereas Poisson's equation connects the potential with the density. Thus, if we have a further equation that dictates how the pressure and density vary with respect to one another, we can reach a solution. The particular choice of a polytropic gas as given above makes the mathematical statement of the problem particularly succinct and leads to the Lane–Emden equation. The equation is a useful approximation for self-gravitating spheres of plasma such as stars, but typically it is a rather limiting assumption.
