Radial Streamfunction Profile
Modon interior–exterior matching at the separatrix
r = ξ
J₁(pr) — oscillatory interior
K₁(qr) — exponential decay
r = ξ separatrix
The streamfunction ψ(r) transitions smoothly from oscillatory Bessel J₁ inside the modon core to exponentially decaying K₁ outside. The matching condition at r = ξ fixes the structure constant K = j₁₁² + 1 = 15.67.
