Abstract
Evolution of relativistic polytropes in the post-quasi-static regime.
(Herrera, L.; Barreto Acevedo, Willians.)
Abstract
A recently presented method for the study of evolving self-gravitating
relativistic spheres is applied to the description of the evolution of rela-
tivistic polytropes. Two different definitions of relativistic polytrope,
yielding the same Newtonian limit, are considered. Some examples
are explicitly worked out, describing collapsing polytropes and bring-
ing out the differences between both types of polytropes.
