It is shown that stability depends only upon the equations of state, the opacities and the local thermodynamic state in the layer. Stability and instability can therefore be expressed in the form of stability equations of state which are universal for a given composition. The stability equations of state are calculated for solar composition and are displayed in the domain \begin_inset Formula $-14\leq\lg\rho/[\mathrm{g}\,\mathrm{cm}^{-3}]\leq0$ \end_inset , \begin_inset Formula $8.8\leq\lg e/[\mathrm{erg}\,\mathrm{g}^{-1}]\leq17.7$ \end_inset . These displays may be used to determine the one-zone stability of layers in stellar or planetary structure models by directly reading off the value of the stability equations for the thermodynamic state of these layers, specified by state quantities as density \begin_inset Formula $\rho$ \end_inset , temperature \begin_inset Formula $T$ \end_inset or specific internal energy \begin_inset Formula $e$ \end_inset . Regions of instability in the \begin_inset Formula $(\rho,e)$ \end_inset -plane are described and related to the underlying microphysical processes. Vibrational instability is found to be a common phenomenon at temperatures lower than the second He ionisation zone. The \begin_inset Formula $\kappa$ \end_inset -mechanism is widespread under `cool' conditions. \begin_inset Note Note status open \begin_layout Plain Layout Citations are not allowed in A&A abstracts. \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Note Note status open \begin_layout Plain Layout This is the unstructured abstract type, an example for the structured abstract is in the \family sans aa.lyx \family default template file that comes with \SpecialChar LyX . \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Keywords giant planet formation – \begin_inset Formula $\kappa$ \end_inset -mechanism – stability of gas spheres \end_layout \begin_layout Section Introduction \end_layout \begin_layout Standard In the \emph on nucleated instability \emph default (also called core instability) hypothesis of giant planet formation, a critical mass for static core envelope protoplanets has been found. Mizuno ( \begin_inset CommandInset citation LatexCommand cite key "Eisenstein2005" literal "true" \end_inset ) determined the critical mass of the core to be about \begin_inset Formula $12\,M_{\oplus}$ \end_inset ( \begin_inset Formula $M_{\oplus}=5.975\,10^{27}\,\mathrm{g}$ \end_inset is the Earth mass), which is independent of the outer boundary conditions and therefore independent of the location in the solar nebula. This critical value for the core mass corresponds closely to the cores of today's giant planets. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Although no hydrodynamical study has been available many workers conjectured that a collapse or rapid contraction will ensue after accumulating the critical mass. The main motivation for this article is to investigate the stability of the static envelope at the critical mass. With this aim the local, linear stability of static radiative gas spheres is investigated on the basis of Baker's ( \begin_inset CommandInset citation LatexCommand cite key "Abernethy2003" literal "true" \end_inset ) standard one-zone model. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Phenomena similar to the ones described above for giant planet formation have been found in hydrodynamical models concerning star formation where protostellar cores explode (Tscharnuter \begin_inset CommandInset citation LatexCommand cite key "Cotton1999" literal "true" \end_inset , Balluch \begin_inset CommandInset citation LatexCommand cite key "Mena2000" literal "true" \end_inset ), whereas earlier studies found quasi-steady collapse flows. The similarities in the (micro)physics, i. \begin_inset space \thinspace{} \end_inset g. \begin_inset space \space{} \end_inset constitutive relations of protostellar cores and protogiant planets serve as a further motivation for this study. \end_layout \begin_layout Section Baker's standard one-zone model \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \begin_inset Float figure wide true sideways false status open \begin_layout Plain Layout \begin_inset Caption Standard \begin_layout Plain Layout \begin_inset CommandInset label LatexCommand label name "fig:FigGam" \end_inset Adiabatic exponent \begin_inset Formula $\Gamma_{1}$ \end_inset . \begin_inset Formula $\Gamma_{1}$ \end_inset is plotted as a function of \begin_inset Formula $\lg$ \end_inset internal energy \begin_inset Formula $[\mathrm{erg}\,\mathrm{g}^{-1}]$ \end_inset and \begin_inset Formula $\lg$ \end_inset density \begin_inset Formula $[\mathrm{g}\,\mathrm{cm}^{-3}]$ \end_inset \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \end_inset In this section the one-zone model of Baker ( \begin_inset CommandInset citation LatexCommand cite key "Abernethy2003" literal "true" \end_inset ), originally used to study the Cepheı̈d pulsation mechanism, will be briefly reviewed. The resulting stability criteria will be rewritten in terms of local state variables, local timescales and constitutive relations. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Baker ( \begin_inset CommandInset citation LatexCommand cite key "Abernethy2003" literal "true" \end_inset ) investigates the stability of thin layers in self-gravitating, spherical gas clouds with the following properties: \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize hydrostatic equilibrium, \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize thermal equilibrium, \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize energy transport by grey radiation diffusion. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \noindent For the one-zone-model Baker obtains necessary conditions for dynamical, secular and vibrational (or pulsational) stability (Eqs. \begin_inset space \space{} \end_inset (34a, \begin_inset space \thinspace{} \end_inset b, \begin_inset space \thinspace{} \end_inset c) in Baker \begin_inset CommandInset citation LatexCommand cite key "Abernethy2003" literal "true" \end_inset ). Using Baker's notation: \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \align left \begin_inset Formula \begin{eqnarray*} M_{r} & & \textrm{mass internal to the radius }r\\ m & & \textrm{mass of the zone}\\ r_{0} & & \textrm{unperturbed zone radius}\\ \rho_{0} & & \textrm{unperturbed density in the zone}\\ T_{0} & & \textrm{unperturbed temperature in the zone}\\ L_{r0} & & \textrm{unperturbed luminosity}\\ E_{\textrm{th}} & & \textrm{thermal energy of the zone} \end{eqnarray*} \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \noindent and with the definitions of the \emph on local cooling time \emph default (see Fig. \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "fig:FigGam" \end_inset ) \begin_inset Formula \begin{equation} \tau_{\mathrm{co}}=\frac{E_{\mathrm{th}}}{L_{r0}}\,, \end{equation} \end_inset and the \emph on local free-fall time \emph default \begin_inset Formula \begin{equation} \tau_{\mathrm{ff}}=\sqrt{\frac{3\pi}{32G}\frac{4\pi r_{0}^{3}}{3M_{\mathrm{r}}}}\,, \end{equation} \end_inset Baker's \begin_inset Formula $K$ \end_inset and \begin_inset Formula $\sigma_{0}$ \end_inset have the following form: \begin_inset Formula \begin{eqnarray} \sigma_{0} & = & \frac{\pi}{\sqrt{8}}\frac{1}{\tau_{\mathrm{ff}}}\\ K & = & \frac{\sqrt{32}}{\pi}\frac{1}{\delta}\frac{\tau_{\mathrm{ff}}}{\tau_{\mathrm{co}}}\,; \end{eqnarray} \end_inset where \begin_inset Formula $E_{\mathrm{th}}\approx m(P_{0}/{\rho_{0}})$ \end_inset has been used and \begin_inset Formula \begin{equation} \begin{array}{l} \delta=-\left(\frac{\partial\ln\rho}{\partial\ln T}\right)_{P}\\ e=mc^{2} \end{array} \end{equation} \end_inset is a thermodynamical quantity which is of order \begin_inset Formula $1$ \end_inset and equal to \begin_inset Formula $1$ \end_inset for nonreacting mixtures of classical perfect gases. The physical meaning of \begin_inset Formula $\sigma_{0}$ \end_inset and \begin_inset Formula $K$ \end_inset is clearly visible in the equations above. \begin_inset Formula $\sigma_{0}$ \end_inset represents a frequency of the order one per free-fall time. \begin_inset Formula $K$ \end_inset is proportional to the ratio of the free-fall time and the cooling time. Substituting into Baker's criteria, using thermodynamic identities and definitions of thermodynamic quantities, \begin_inset Formula \[ \Gamma_{1}=\left(\frac{\partial\ln P}{\partial\ln\rho}\right)_{S}\,,\;\chi_{\rho}^{}=\left(\frac{\partial\ln P}{\partial\ln\rho}\right)_{T}\,,\;\kappa_{P}^{}=\left(\frac{\partial\ln\kappa}{\partial\ln P}\right)_{T} \] \end_inset \begin_inset Formula \[ \nabla_{\mathrm{ad}}=\left(\frac{\partial\ln T}{\partial\ln P}\right)_{S}\,,\;\chi_{T}^{}=\left(\frac{\partial\ln P}{\partial\ln T}\right)_{\rho}\,,\;\kappa_{T}^{}=\left(\frac{\partial\ln\kappa}{\partial\ln T}\right)_{T} \] \end_inset one obtains, after some pages of algebra, the conditions for \emph on stability \emph default given below: \begin_inset Formula \begin{eqnarray} \frac{\pi^{2}}{8}\frac{1}{\tau_{\mathrm{ff}}^{2}}(3\Gamma_{1}-4) & > & 0\label{ZSDynSta}\\ \frac{\pi^{2}}{\tau_{\mathrm{co}}\tau_{\mathrm{ff}}^{2}}\Gamma_{1}\nabla_{\mathrm{ad}}\left[\frac{1-3/4\chi_{\rho}^{}}{\chi_{T}^{}}(\kappa_{T}^{}-4)+\kappa_{P}^{}+1\right] & > & 0\label{ZSSecSta}\\ \frac{\pi^{2}}{4}\frac{3}{\tau_{\mathrm{co}}\tau_{\mathrm{ff}}^{2}}\Gamma_{1}^{2}\,\nabla_{\mathrm{ad}}\left[4\nabla_{\mathrm{ad}}-(\nabla_{\mathrm{ad}}\kappa_{T}^{}+\kappa_{P}^{})-\frac{4}{3\Gamma_{1}}\right] & > & 0\label{ZSVibSta} \end{eqnarray} \end_inset For a physical discussion of the stability criteria see Baker ( \begin_inset CommandInset citation LatexCommand cite key "Abernethy2003" literal "true" \end_inset ) or Cox ( \begin_inset CommandInset citation LatexCommand cite key "Parkin2005" literal "true" \end_inset ). \end_layout \begin_layout Standard We observe that these criteria for dynamical, secular and vibrational stability, respectively, can be factorized into \end_layout \begin_layout Enumerate a factor containing local timescales only, \end_layout \begin_layout Enumerate a factor containing only constitutive relations and their derivatives. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard The first factors, depending on only timescales, are positive by definition. The signs of the left hand sides of the inequalities \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset ( \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "ZSDynSta" \end_inset ), ( \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "ZSSecSta" \end_inset ) and ( \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "ZSVibSta" \end_inset ) therefore depend exclusively on the second factors containing the constitutive relations. Since they depend only on state variables, the stability criteria themselves are \emph on functions of the thermodynamic state in the local zone \emph default . The one-zone stability can therefore be determined from a simple equation of state, given for example, as a function of density and temperature. Once the microphysics, i. \begin_inset space \thinspace{} \end_inset g. \begin_inset space \space{} \end_inset the thermodynamics and opacities (see Table \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "tab:KapSou" \end_inset ), are specified (in practice by specifying a chemical composition) the one-zone stability can be inferred if the thermodynamic state is specified. The zone – or in other words the layer – will be stable or unstable in whatever object it is imbedded as long as it satisfies the one-zone-model assumptions. Only the specific growth rates (depending upon the time scales) will be different for layers in different objects. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \begin_inset Float table wide false sideways false status open \begin_layout Plain Layout \begin_inset Caption Standard \begin_layout Plain Layout \begin_inset CommandInset label LatexCommand label name "tab:KapSou" \end_inset Opacity sources \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Plain Layout \align center \begin_inset Tabular \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout Source \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout \begin_inset Formula $T/[\textrm{K}]$ \end_inset \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout Yorke 1979, Yorke 1980a \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout \begin_inset Formula $\leq1700^{\textrm{a}}$ \end_inset \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout Krügel 1971 \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout \begin_inset Formula $1700\leq T\leq5000$ \end_inset \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout Cox & Stewart 1969 \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout \begin_inset Formula $5000\leq$ \end_inset \end_layout \end_inset \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Plain Layout \begin_inset Formula $^{\textrm{a}}$ \end_inset This is footnote a \end_layout \end_inset We will now write down the sign (and therefore stability) determining parts of the left-hand sides of the inequalities ( \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "ZSDynSta" \end_inset ), ( \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "ZSSecSta" \end_inset ) and ( \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "ZSVibSta" \end_inset ) and thereby obtain \emph on stability equations of state \emph default . \end_layout \begin_layout Standard The sign determining part of inequality \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset ( \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "ZSDynSta" \end_inset ) is \begin_inset Formula $3\Gamma_{1}-4$ \end_inset and it reduces to the criterion for dynamical stability \begin_inset Formula \begin{equation} \Gamma_{1}>\frac{4}{3}\,\cdot \end{equation} \end_inset Stability of the thermodynamical equilibrium demands \begin_inset Formula \begin{equation} \chi_{\rho}^{}>0,\;\;c_{v}>0\,, \end{equation} \end_inset and \begin_inset Formula \begin{equation} \chi_{T}^{}>0 \end{equation} \end_inset holds for a wide range of physical situations.

We see that the one-zone stability of the layer depends only on the constitutiv e relations \begin_inset Formula $\Gamma_{1}$ \end_inset , \begin_inset Formula $\nabla_{\mathrm{ad}}$ \end_inset , \begin_inset Formula $\chi_{T}^{},\,\chi_{\rho}^{}$ \end_inset , \begin_inset Formula $\kappa_{P}^{},\,\kappa_{T}^{}$ \end_inset . These depend only on the unperturbed thermodynamical state of the layer.
