Pressure correction to a growing polytropic cosmological mode
ID: pressure-correction-to-a-growing-polytropic-cosmological-mode
Put in the Bessel density modes of a polytropic expanding universe equation. It becomes . Substituting gives . Since , the fractional pressure correction is small when . For , this is the order-of-magnitude condition . It describes approach to the dust-like growing branch, not an exact universal time at which every initial perturbation starts increasing. The instantaneous Jeans instability balance instead compares with .
