On the Dynamical Instability of Monatomic Fluid Spheres in (<i>N</i> + 1)-Dimensional Spacetime

In this note, I derive the Chandrasekhar instability of a fluid sphere in (<i>N</i> + 1)-dimensional Schwarzschild–Tangherlini spacetime and take the homogeneous (uniform energy density) solution for illustration. Qualitatively, the effect of a positive (negative) cosmological constant t...
