 Polytrope of index one

A stellar polytrope with polytropic index one has $\nabla \Phi =-2K\nabla \rho$ in hydrostatic equilibrium. Combining this with the Poisson equation for Newtonian gravity gives the Helmholtz equationThe spherical solution regular at the origin is $\rho (r)={\rho }_c\sin (kr)/(kr)$. Its first zero gives $R=\pi /k=\sqrt{\pi K/(2G)}$, independent of central mass density, and $\bar{\rho }/{\rho }_c=3/{\pi }^2$.
