Abstract
We investigate the structure of self-gravitating polytropic stellar systems. We present a method which allows to obtain approximate analytical solutions, $\psi_{n+\epsilon}({\bf x})$, of the nonlinear Poisson equation with the polytropic index $n+\epsilon$, given the solution $\psi_n({\bf x})$ with the polytropic index n, for any positive or negative $\epsilon$ such that $|\epsilon|\ll1$. Application of this method to the spherically symmetric stellar polytropes with $n\simeq5$ yields the solutions which describe spatially bound systems if n<5 and the formation of a second core if n>5. A heuristic approximate expressions for the radial profiles are also presented. Due to the duality between stellar and gas polytropes, our results are valid for gaseous, self-gravitating polytropic systems (e.g., molecular clouds) with the index $\gamma\simeq 6/5$. Stability of such systems and observational consequences for both stellar and gaseous systems are discussed.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
