Abstract

We consider a two-parameter family of equations of state for perfect fluids which forms the limiting case of a condition employed in a uniqueness proof of static, asymptotically flat solutions of the field equations. We find a geometric interpretation of this family and determine, for each of its members, the one-parameter family of regular spherically symmetric solutions.
