 Projected spherical Jeans residual

For a spherical nonrotating tracer with luminosity density $\lambda$, radial velocity dispersion ${\sigma }_r$, enclosed luminosity $L(r)$, and constant mass-to-light ratio ${\rm Y}$, let $q=\lambda {\sigma }_r^2$ and $\gamma =G{\rm Y}$. DefineThe Spherical Jeans equation and the projected second stellar velocity moment give $p=2A+R{A}^{\prime }$. To differentiate without a singular lower-end contribution, write $A(R)={\int }_0^{\infty }q(\sqrt{R^2+z^2})dz$. If $R^{2}A$ vanishes at both endpoints, ${\int }_0^{\infty }Rp(R)dR=0$. A finite outer aperture instead retains its boundary stress term.
