Let a thin spherical shell have equilibrium radius a0​, mass m per unit area, and radial restoring stiffness κ per unit area. If it encloses gas of density ρ0​ and sound speed c0​, its spherically symmetric normal-mode frequencies obey
θ2(1+θcotθ−1α​)=mc02​κa02​​,θ=c0​ωa0​​,α=mρ0​a0​​.​

The fraction is the frequency-dependent acoustic added mass of the enclosed gas.
