It is found that the condition depends on three parameters: the mass density $\\rho_0$, the collision rate $\\omega_0$, and the rate of energy loss per collision $\\epsilon$. When $\\sqrt{G\\rho_0}\\ll\\epsilon\\omega_0$, clustering instability dominates, while when $\\epsilon\\omega_0\\ll\\sqrt{G\\rho_0}$, Jeans instability dominates. These instabilities are characterized by the decrease and increase, respectively, of the temperature.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2019-03-05T05:15:49.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "linear stability analysis", "self-gravitating granular gas", "jeans instability dominates", "clustering instability", "mass density perturbations" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 9, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
