Such a condition takes the form ρ and gt; λρvac, where ρ is the mean density of an astrophysical system (e.g. galaxy, galaxy cluster or supercluster), λ is a quantity which depends only on the shape of the system, and ρvac is the vacuum density. We conclude that gravitational stability might be infiuenced by the presence of Λ depending strongly on the shape of the system.application/pdfspaDerechos reservados - Universidad Nacional de Colombiahttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0/Virial theorem and gravitational equilibrium with a cosmological constantArtículo de revistahttp://bdigital.unal.edu.co/35119/info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessConstante cosmológicadensidadgalaxias
