Description

This lecture explores the stability of stellar systems at equilibrium, focusing on perturbation theory and linear response theory. Topics include the principle of maximum entropy, linearized equations for self-gravitating systems, and the Jeans instability. The instructor discusses the response of homogeneous fluids and stellar systems to weak perturbations, emphasizing stability conditions and dispersion relations.
