Core Collapse

Fast star: looses energy ⇒ sinks deeper in the potential well ⇒ gains speed ⇒ becomes even faster (hotter) Slow star: gains energy ⇒ climbs out of the potential well, ⇒ looses speed ⇒ becomes even slower (colder)

Equipartition of Energies

When all stars (at radius R) have the same kinetic energy High-mass stars are slow, low-mass stars are fast

Summary - 1

  • 1. The Gravitational N-body problem
  • N=2: exactly solvable
  • N=3: approximately solvable
  • N>3: only numerical solvable
  • 2. Dynamic Equilibrium
  • No EXPANSION or CONTRACTION of the system
  • 3. Negative Heat Capacity
  • Remove energy —> hotter
  • Gain energy —> colder
