What is Hunter self-similar implosion profiles for the gravitational Euler-Poisson system about?

Our result is a construction of infinitely many radial self-similar implosion profiles for the gravitational Euler-Poisson system. The problem can be expressed as solving a system of non-autonomous non-linear ODEs. The first rigorous existence result for a non-trivial solution to these ODEs is due to Guo, Had\v{z}i\'c and Jang [Comm. Math. Phys. 386.3 (2021)], in which they construct a solution found numerically by Larson and Penston independently [Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society 145.3 (1969), Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society 144.4 (1969)]. The solutions we construct belong to a different regime and correspond to a strict subset of the family of profiles discovered numerically by Hunter. Our proof adapts a technique developed by Collot, Rapha\"el and Szeftel in [Mem. Amer. Math. Soc. 260.1255 (2019)], in which they study blowup for a family of energy-supercritical focusing semilinear heat equations. In our case, the quasilinearity presents complications, most severely near the sonic point where the system degenerates.
