What canst thou give us half so dear as these?
We would not soar amid the stars to sing,
Warm and content amid the nested trees.

A touch, obedience to a clause
In nature's pure material laws.

In science:
Although this is far from sufficient to identify a material for a specific application, it does provide a criteria to eliminate materials for which instability would occur.
Effects of permeability and viscosity in linear polymeric gels
As the ratio of core mass to total mass is enhanced, this results in a larger specific self-binding energy for material close to the core-envelope interface, and if this material is perturbed, it can absorb a larger fraction of the planet’s orbital energy.
On the Survivability and Metamorphism of Tidally Disrupted Giant Planets: the Role of Dense Cores
Small excitations of arbitrary form are damped and this damping is expected as a result of material properties, otherwise the continuum, as a material, cannot exist, it destroys itself.
Generic stability in dissipative generalized mechanics
We associate the BB component to the expansion of the ejected material, while the power-law is associated (as we interpret from the IGC paradigm) with the accretion of part of this material onto the NS companion.
GRB 110709B in the Induced Gravitational Collapse paradigm
It is interesting to analyze how the NS can accrete such a large mass, in some cases of the order of 47% of the early-SN material (see column 5 of Table 4), since one could think that solid angles of ∼ 50% between the early-SN material and the accreting NS are hard to obtain.
