 At an effective resolution of ~$dx = .0019$, the sphere is very close to HSE within .1 of its radius.
+
+HSE here is defined as the difference of the magnitude of the gravitational and pressure acceleration:
+
+$HSE =   mag[\nabla \phi_g] - mag[ \frac{\nabla P}{\rho} ]$
+
+==== Radial profiles over time: ====
+
+The following radial profile movies show the sphere is quasi-stable over 2 dynamical times, entering a breathing mode as it slowly adjusts to its HSE initialization:
+
+|| density (g/cm^3^) || movie ||
+|| pressure (Ba) || movie ||
+|| radial mach number  || movie ||
+|| HSE || movie || 
+
+==== Mesh ====

+The mesh/setup at the final time looks like:
