Static, self–gravitating elastic bodies

Year: 2003

Type: article

Abstract: An existence theorem, within the Newtonian theory of gravity, is proved for static, self–gravitating, isolated bodies composed of elastic material. The theorem covers the case where these bodies are small, but allows them to have arbitrary shape.
