For
a
spherical
incompressible planetary interior
,
M
(
r
)
=
4
π
ρ
r
3
/3
gives
d
P
/
d
r
=
−
4
π
G
ρ
2
r
/3
. With
P
(
R
)
=
0
,
P
(
r
)
=
2
π
G
ρ

(
R

−
r

)
/3
. The
surface gravity
g
s
=
4
π
GρR
/3
then yields
P
c
=
3
g
s
2
/
(
8
π
G
)
. Add an imposed
surface
pressure
to the entire profile if needed.
