Abstract

The compressible Navier–Stokes–Poisson equations driven by a time-periodic external force are considered in this paper. The system takes into account the effect of self–gravitation. We establish the existence of weak time-periodic solutions on condition that the adiabatic constant satisfies $\gamma \gt \frac{5}{3}$.
